The SPOC or Small Private Online Course comes from the MOOC or massive open online course branch. However, there is a considerable difference. In fact, the SPOC is private. To be clearer, it is designed to meet the learning needs of an identified and specific audience. In short, the Small Private Online Course is therefore a private online course. It is organised in small groups. It should be noted that the SPOC came into being in the early 2010’s. It can be used in several ways. For example, it can be used as an alternative to face-to-face training.
