I am very interested in this topic and planning to attend the EMOOCs2015 Stakeholders Summit next month to learn more about it. There are different business models currently in operation, these are the ones that I have identified from other authors (papers, books) and from media releases and newspapers.I believe there is no "one-fits-all" business model in this sector and all the options below are continuously evolving:1.Paid by: ParticipantPayment by the MOOC participants for additional services such as identity verification or certificates of completion (type Freemium).(Kalman, 2014), (Dellarocas, 2013),(Burd, 2014)This model is actually operating in Coursera. This model only works if a significant percent of students pay encouraged by companies or universities that accept the certification as valid for credits or jobs.2Paid by: ParticipantPayment by participants who need more support to pass. Identify students’ strengths and weaknesses, charge them to join study groups with compatible peers or tutors. E.g. Help line (Hyman, 2013) (Dellarocas, 2013)3Paid by: ParticipantInteraction on demand: Paying per hour, for teacher meetings, with a registration fee of $100, allows the student to 10 meetings of $10, more solutions published give the student $7 each one. (Bernhard, 2013)Developed by Swiss special Interest Group E-collaboration in 2012.4Paid by: Companies interested in obtaining the dataThe sale of participant data, for example, to potential employers who wish to recruit employees with a specific skills set. Increase talent development and acquisition.(Kalman, 2014) Coursera and FutureLearn have explored this option.5Paid by: Potential employers, percentage of salary as head hunters or fixed tariff. Linking participants with potential employers (the MOOC can be created specifically to train in these skills) (Burd, 2014), (Dellarocas, 2013)Coursera is doing this with their top students, sharing their CV with companies like Facebook, Twitter and Google. There is some information about Udacity experience, who has been running a recruiters programme (Dellarocas, 2013)6Paid by: Ads market-places or agenciesAdvertising in the MOOCs (Kalman, 2014)As many apps in the market, the user could pay to avoid ads or the MOOC provider recive bennefits from ads. There is a concern about the view of the academic community of using ads inside learning materials.7Universities paying to MOOC providers with royalties to the creator university. This means, payment by institutions such as universities who wish to use the MOOC materials instead of developing them independently. Universities adopting the model of syndication, well established in the media sector (news agencies) where the information is used by several newspapers for example. (Kalman, 2014) (Dellarocas, 2013)This business model might work for university consortiums, however the higher education sector seems too competitive to share materials between them. Also is a matter of prestigious as can be seen in MOOCs offered by top universities.8Private events, conference pay to universities and Mooc providers.Income from ‘superstar faculty’ who become celebrities and are paid similarly to artists who get paid for live events and concerts. (Kalman, 2014)9Universities pay to MOOC providers, they save cost by not offering all courses face-to-face. Third party collaborative arrangement between a university and the MOOC provider for credit-courses. Is important to consider that regulations in each country/state make difficult to MOOCs providers such as Coursera to offer credit-courses and standarize the real value of a certificate.E.g. San Jose University is offering for-credit courses with Udacity10Universities to MOOC providersData analytics, information about improving the courses, identifying markets to target campaigns, information of graduate students who want to continue education.(Burd, 2014)11Universities assume the cost and the data collected is used to improve traditional education, in this case MOOCs are seen as a space to experiment at low cost to identify best innovative teaching methods at classroom.This is not sustainable, and would need to be complemented with other way to generate profit.12Universities assume the cost.Increased Awareness of an Institution’s Brand: Help the university to enter in a niche area that is not populated (Burd, 2014).13Paid by Companies: Creation of branded MOOCs for companies open to everyone not just employees (it would be corporate training) to increase brand reputation. Might be complemented with recruiters programmes.14Universities assume the cost: Creation of Branded MOOCs for Universities to increase applications to postgraduate programmes (Burd, 2014). Is this model working now? Are Ivy league universities receiving more or less applications as a result of offering MOOCs?15The MOOC provider charge the university that offer academic credit.Charging for individual assessment or use of examination centres.The participant is also charged through the MOOC provider if want to be certified (Burd, 2014). An existing concern for MOOC is non reliable assessment. Pearson is exploring revenue opportunities providing examination centres.16Governmental funding for the development and operation. "There is the view that more educated people pay more taxes, use less health services and contribute more to the country".17Parents (Why not?)Bridge MOOC, provide support and skills in literacy and numeracy for school students prior entering to university. (Burd, 2014)Parents might be interested in paying as a pre-university course. Universities might pay because they obtain more undergrads, it might be a brand MOOC designed for one university or selling ads to universities.I want to explore this topic further so lets keep in touch, and let me know if you have identified others.Xiomara MedinaMSc International Technology Management.

This is what I can say to engage in the debate, about business models in MOOCsI am very interested in the MOOC topic and planning to attend the EMOOCs2015 Stakeholders Summit next month to learn more about it.There are different business models currently in operation, however I won't consider most of the options as innovative, I see those as an adaptation from current business models in other areas such as mobile apps, recruitment and HR in organisations, branding, etc.These are the ones that I have identified from other authors (papers, books) and from media releases and newspapers. I believe there is no "one-fits-all" business model in this sector and all the options below are continuously evolving and as David Schatsky mentioned, the question is which will be sustainable?.1.Paid by: ParticipantPayment by the MOOC participants for additional services such as identity verification or certificates of completion.(Kalman, 2014), (Dellarocas, 2013),(Burd, 2014).This model is actually operating in Coursera.
