Introduction

One of the activities of the SCORE2020 project was the organisation of several multiplier- and trainingevents. These events were held at the end of the project linked to one or more intellectual outputs realised.

The multiplier events were specially dedicated to the dissemination of project outcomes and as such the main target group were those interested outside the SCORE2020 partnership. In total, five multiplier events and two training events were organised. Four multiplier events took place in 2016: One in Madrid, Spain (4 March), two in Dublin, Ireland (5 May & 2 November) and one in Rome, Italy (18 October). The last multiplier event took place in Maastricht, The Netherlands at 31 January – 1 February 2017.

In addition, two intensive five-day training programmes were organised. These training events were open (and for free) to all but by financial constrains mainly targeting staff and students of SCORE2020 partners. The first training event took place in Madrid, Spain on 12-16 December 2016. The training session addressed the importance of the design and development of sustainable MOOCs. The second training was organised in Ljubljana, Slovenia on 20-24 February 2017, addressing the strategies, identifying stakeholders, necessary support and resources, services, tools, business models, partnerships, design skills and quality aspects related to open and online learning, including MOOCs.

Note that the project dealt with assessing and mobilising the needs for support. As such the events functioned in two ways: On the one hand, the events functioned to disseminate the findings with regard to support needs of organisations about open education, on the other hand the events were building capacity beyond the project life-time and beyond the consortium to ensure that the support will be organised effectively and efficiently.

The training and multiplier events were promoted through different channels of partners and by social media. In total 237 people from 20 different European countries attended for these SCORE2020 events. Table 1 summarises the main indicators for all five SCORE2020 multiplier events. In table 2 the main indicators are specified for the training events in Madrid and Ljubljana.

Each event was evaluated and separate evaluation reports are available. For four of the SCORE2020 events (Rome, Maastricht, Madrid, Ljubljana) the same standardised online survey was used to evaluate the events and to ask the participants’ opinion about MOOC support services and their collaboration with other organisations, concerning MOOCs. This document reviews the evaluation of these surveys altogether.
