Free learning can come from groups like Work Literacy that provided a large online learning experience for free, or from LearnTrends that produces amazing content like LearnTrends 2009 for free. Free Learning may not be as high a quality – although I would claim that LearnTrends and WorkLiteracy filled niches.
