The MOOC-Maker project «Construction of management capacities of MOOCs in higher education» and ACAI-LA project «Adopting quality, accessibility and innovation approaches in latin american higher education» that are part of the European Union’s Erasmus+ program, create synergies to promote virtual education mainly in Latin America through the development of workshops.
