Malaysia to become first country to develop credit recognition policy for online courses | New Straits Times | Malaysia General Business Sports and Lifestyle News: "Higher Education Minister Datuk Seri Idris Jusoh said through the initiative, students around the world will be able to pursue their studies online for free and be given credit recognition.

“MOOCs have been implemented around the world for years but no credit is awarded after the students complete their course.

“The ministry plans to award credit through the country’s own MOOCs to encourage flexible learning among students, reduce the duplication of learning and recognise the lessons and experiences gained outside the conventional classroom."
