EMC-LM is based on a firm belief that the most efficient way to tackle the learning needs of the European workforce is through a structural collaboration with public employment services active on the national labour markets or with sectoral organisations and directly with companies.

Through EMC-LM, employment services, MOOC platforms and course providers, are creating the framework for this structural collaboration by building expertise in the delivery of MOOCS to job-seekers as well as those employed in different sectors.

• Strengthen the partners in the knowledge alliance by sharing experience and expertise on MOOCs and digital education and training
• Create a framework for structural collaboration on developing, delivering and using MOOCs, to meet the needs of the EU labour market
• Provide more high quality MOOCs and digital education and training opportunities for the European labour market
• Implement a more structured outreach for continuous education and training and career development for the EU labour market
• Enhance the European workforce in terms of employability, innovation and entrepreneurship
• Raise the competitiveness of regions and member states
• Bring into practice the Modernisation and Skills Agendas of the European Commission

The EMC-LM structural framework will enable partners develop, deliver and use MOOCs and digital education/training opportunities more effectively for the EU labour market.

This framework is based on an exchange of expertise and experience and agreed concepts, roles and MOOC delivery mechanisms.
