Online Education Club is a social enterprise dedicated to making world-class education accessible in Azerbaijan. We believe every person has the right to have the same quality education wherever they live in the world. We utilize the second wave of open, online course ware (MOOCs) to create a learning community that will empower individuals in Azerbaijan to think differently and pursue their dreams.

We believe every person has the right to
have the same quality education wherever

We utilize the second wave of open, online

OEC brings online education to non-native
English speakers in the developing world.
Online Education Club solves the biggest
problem with online education’s capability
to educate the world:
Despite its low costs, few can access it
because of lower educational standards
and English skills.

11. We have to get our hands dirty. Not
everything can be solved by start-ups
sitting in San Francisco and Cambridge,
MA.
For education to be successful, students, no
matter the age, need guidance. It is not
enough to say here is a great resource,
good luck!

class offered.
