No, GetSmarter courses are a premium product with personalized grading, feedback and engagement, unlike MOOCs. Every student is assigned a Success Adviser and is offered 24/7 assistance.

Testing is mainly in the form of graded assignments with deadlines rather than specific examinations and tests. Completion of course material is also checked to ensure students have completed all relevant learning materials.

The target audience of GetSmarter are mainly individuals from the age group of 18 to 55 years old, studying in university/have advanced degrees, and medium/high affluence. The courses are designed with professionals in mind and provide a career-focused curriculum that equips working professionals with the expertise required for the workplace.

Courses run with student cohorts and set presentations. The courses aren’t “live” necessarily. They’re pre-built in partnership with Universities and exist within a proprietary online learning platform. The support and assignment grading & feedback is live however, and that happens throughout the duration of each course presentation.

Prior to the start of each presentation, each registered student will receive all details required as well as instructions on the course structure, how to use the online learning platform, assignment due dates and how to submit work. Once the course starts the autonomy is handed to each student to use their time as they wish, provided they adhere to key milestone deadlines – like assignment submissions.

Exceptional course design is something that GetSmarter pride themselves in and is a key differentiating factor when viewed against other competitors. They use a range of digital formats from video to fully interactive multimedia formats. The courses should be enjoyable, and a lot of energy comes through in the engagement within the student cohort itself in each course presentation. A strong sense of community is fostered as students discuss and answer key questions together on their subject matter, which is actively moderated by the course faculty. This engagement and the networking opportunities that follow are a big value-add and both contribute significantly to the learning experience for each course offered.
