We are looking forward to welcoming you at our MOOQ Conference 2018!

MOOQ  is the European Alliance for Quality of Massive Open Online Courses, called MOOCs. The MOOQ conference aims to bring together students, graduates, practitioners, researchers and field experts of MOOCs to share experiences and to discuss MOOC quality issues and challenges in the 21st century e-learning landscape. We hope to engage all participants in a meaningful discourse on a Quality Reference Framework (QRF) for MOOCs.
