Summary/Abstract: The transformation of VET across Europe is taking it momentum. In that context provision of open, massive educational offer for the professional trainers and teachers seemed a good direction. The partnership took the challenge to redesign the e-course towards VET-specific need, pilot it as cMOOC and transform it into an open course available for individuals and institutions. The article deals with the massive online course designed for VET teachers in e-learning pedagogies. The authors discuss the recommendations towards designing the cMOOC for VET practitioners and refer to the pilot cMOOC conducted in Croatia, Slovenia, Poland, Lithuania, Italy, Czech Republic, Spain and Norway from November 2013 till March 2014 with overall 300 participants.
