Abstract: In a changing world, only those who accumulate solid knowledge will be competitive in the long run. Since 2005, the number of Hungarian students has decreased by 30%. Meanwhile, the number of foreign students at Hungarian universities increased by 23.931. It is true that, due to tuition fees, those with modest incomes often cannot follow a university training program. Between 2005 and 2019, over 52% of students completed their state-funded studies. We must not forget that obtaining a university degree is just one piece of the puzzle. The real challenge is finding a well-paid job. Decreasing the number of unemployed is a necessity of the 21st century. In 2016, 1.231.453 higher education employees were registered in Hungary. Over the years, those who graduated from the Faculty of Pedagogy or the Faculty of Construction managed to quickly integrate into the field of work. We must not forget that online courses offer a fast and cheap way to develop knowledge and skills, one of them being K-MOOC.
