Together, we open learning.
MIT has opened its doors to millions of learners worldwide through Open Learning—sharing the Institute’s knowledge freely and empowering people everywhere.
Today, MIT Open Learning is expanding that global reach, scaling impact, advancing innovation, and ensuring equitable access to learning for all. Our goals are:
Reaching one billion learners
To amplify and extend our global reach and engagement through free and open resources—building on the success of MIT OpenCourseWare—new Universal Learning offerings, and the AI-enabled MIT Learn platform.
Advancing AI and climate education
To invest in AI-powered learning (personalization, tutors, and tools) and expanding climate and ethics education for a rapidly changing world.
Breaking down barriers to access
To deliver a tiered model of free, high-quality educational content—ensuring the fundamentals of AI, climate, biology, and more are widely accessible to learners everywhere.
Strengthening equity and collaborations
To expand impact through working with community colleges and creating pathways to opportunity for underserved learners.
With you and your support, MIT Open Learning can accelerate innovation, broaden access, and prepare today’s learners to meet tomorrow’s challenges.
We also welcome gifts made through Donor-Advised Funds.
