“…However, these credits were only awarded to regular students at the respective university as (partial) credits for lectures or certificates. In addition to the recognition of participation in MOOCs on the iMooX.at platform at individual universities (as part of courses), there was also recognition in the context of continuing professional development, e.g., participation was recognized by the Austrian Health and Nursing Association (ÖGKV) or, in the case of several MOOCs, recognition was granted by the Continuing Education Academy (wba) ( [17], p. 6). So that no misunderstandings arise: Again, these are not awards of "microcredentials" but recognition of educational achievements by third parties.…”

MOOCs are seen as an important measure to open-up universities to new target groups. In this chapter, two new variants of the usage of MOOCs in European higher education are highlighted: First, openly licensed MOOCs can be used as part of microcredential offers with university accreditation. Second, openly licensed MOOCs can be made available to other universities as an integrated resource and offer within European university alliances. The paper discusses legal (such as copyright issues), organizational (such as processes) and technical issues (such as LTI, eduGAIN) for these new developments. An important requirement for this is that MOOCs are available as open educational resources (OER): Open licenses which allow the reuse, modification, and republication of educational resources (“open education resources”) are another opportunity to open-up and share university offers. The paper is based on experiences of the national Austrian MOOC platform iMooX.at, the microcredential implementation of Graz University of Technology, as well as first ideas concerning the integration of openly licensed MOOCs within the unite! University alliance of nine European technical universities.
