The Open University, a pioneer in making online learning accessible continues this tradition with a wide range of free online courses.

Their collection covers a broad range of topics, but if we focus in on education, they have over 400 courses. On the first page alone, you’ll find courses such as Supporting children’s learning in primary education today and Leadership and followership.
