Demand for online education is growing. Are providers ready?
Interest and participation in online learning continues to grow: 2020 saw record enrollment, 1 Data are from the Integrated Postsecondary Education Data System (IPEDS), National Center for Education Statistics, US Department of Education, accessed March 2022. and universities have launched new online programs to meet this increased demand. 2 For examples, see Sydney Lake, “Alabama State University to launch online MBA program,” Fortune , May 16, 2022; Jenna Tarleton, “Colorado State University Global launches new online Master of Business Administration,” GlobeNewswire, June 1, 2022; and 2U, “edX and University of Maryland launch new online product management master’s degree,” Cision: PR Newswire, May 17, 2022. From doctoral students to lifelong learners, people are increasingly accessing online tools to learn and acquire new skills. Though the increase in demand is undeniable, creating compelling offerings that appeal to prospective students is an ongoing challenge for many providers.
Many players are vying for a piece of the online education market, from local and national universities to emerging online education giants and newer nondegree providers. The magnitude of these market shifts and the increasing competition they herald suggest that online education providers may be compelled to go beyond incremental improvements and initiate big, bold moves to survive, grow, and thrive.
Major market forces
Four core market forces are reshaping the online education space, including increased competition, consolidation by a handful of big players, an influx of investments, and rising standards for quality (Exhibit 1).
As demand for online education has grown, the market has become increasingly competitive, with providers vying for attention from a broad set of prospective students.
From 2011 to 2021, the number of learners reached by massive open online courses (MOOCs) increased from 300,000 to 220 million. 3 Dhawal Shah, “A decade of MOOCs: A review of stats and trends for large-scale online courses in 2021,” EdSurge, December 28, 2021. Between 2012 and 2019, the number of hybrid and distance-only students 4 As a proxy for online learners. at traditional universities increased by 36 percent, while the circumstances of the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020 rapidly accelerated that growth by an additional 92 percent. 5 IPEDS, distance education status as of fall 2020, accessed March 2022.
Against this backdrop of growing student interest, the market for online education has consolidated around a handful of dominant online-degree players. A recent analysis of Integrated Postsecondary Education Data System (IPEDS) total enrollment data showed that while the overall market for degree programs decreased approximately 3 percent from 2019 to 2020, four of the largest open-access online education providers—Southern New Hampshire University (SNHU), Liberty University, Western Governors University (WGU), and Grand Canyon University (GCU)—grew their total enrollment by 11 percent on average. 6 IPEDS, distance education status as of fall 2020, accessed March 2022.
But online degree-granting universities have newer, digital-native entrants nipping at their heels and targeting the same student segments. Numerous digital-education start-ups are disrupting the space, driven by a rise in venture capital funding. US venture funding for education technology (edtech) grew from $1 billion to $8 billion between 2017 and 2021. 7 “Global edtech venture capital report - Full year 2021,” Holon IQ, January 3, 2022. In 2021, the public appetite for these investments was evident in the successful IPOs of multiple edtech companies, including that of Coursera (valuation of more than $4 billion). 8 Marina Temkin, “Edtech backers rewarded as IPO pipeline heats up,” PitchBook, November 1, 2021. Edtech investment could be poised for more growth as online offerings surge and as institutions continue to shift toward blended learning grounded in cutting-edge digital technologies.
The forces propelling demand have been accompanied by rising standards for online education quality. For example, new offerings are blurring the lines between degree and nondegree learning, creating a new category of educational competitors. Google’s Grow with Google program, in partnership with Coursera, 9 The Keyword , “Opportunity for everyone,” blog entry by Sundar Pichai, Google, October 12, 2017. offers courses in high-demand areas such as user experience design and data analytics and has made significant gains in enrollment. These programs give prospective learners cost-effective, expeditious options beyond a degree program. Traditional digital-education providers that are primarily degree-focused may want to consider including such offerings in their strategies to compete and grow in the online education space.
Greater demand and rising quality standards also suggest that students are growing savvier about the returns of their educational investments. For some prospective students, especially those moving into high-paying fields such as IT, the opportunity to learn high-demand skills is more important than a program or institution’s brand. Nearly half of respondents to our learner segmentation survey said they would only consider paying for education programs that have an expected positive return on career outcomes, while 21 percent indicated they would consider attending a school to get a degree only if the school was “top ranked.” 10 McKinsey Learner Segmentation Survey (n = 3,709).
Five strategic moves that could unlock opportunities
Amid these market forces are potential growth opportunities for online education providers, but successfully unlocking these opportunities may require providers to make bold moves in adapting and pivoting strategies.
Employers in fields from healthcare to cybersecurity are struggling to find qualified workers, 11 WorkCare Blog , “Employers struggle to find qualified workers,” August 3, 2021; Matt Ferguson, “Employers struggle to find skilled workers,” CNN, 2008; David Ramel, “‘Great Resignation’ depletes already hard-to-find cybersecurity talent,” Converge360, March 24, 2022; Dave Muoio, “Staffing shortages force long-term care facilities to limit admissions, hire agency workers,” Fierce Healthcare, September 22, 2021. and online education can help adults of all ages quickly gain the skills needed to fill these positions and improve their career trajectories. At the same time, workers are reevaluating their career opportunities and looking to enter better-paying fields.
To meet these needs, capture the attention of prospective students, and distinguish themselves from competitors, online education providers could consider five strategic moves (Exhibit 2): integrate skill building and degree attainment to meet student and labor market needs, transform career planning and coaching services, revolutionize employer relationships, deliver a distinctive learning experience, and build a bold and distinctive brand.
1. Meet student and labor market needs
Educational institutions have traditionally focused on learning and knowledge building first and careers second. But students, especially prospective online learners, are focused on the ROI of their degree—specifically, what jobs their degree will prepare them for. 12 McKinsey analysis. Moreover, labor market needs are rapidly changing. As a primary pool of talent, institutions could align themselves with these shifts by rethinking program development and degree attainment to better prepare their students for a dynamic work environment. Institutions have three actions to consider:
Align programs with the needs of the market. At many institutions, including nontraditional online institutions, programs are developed through an outdated and often drawn-out process that is frequently divorced from the needs of employers and industries. This process not only leads to a mismatch in graduates’ skills but also rarely allows for the rapid development of new programs to meet current needs.
Institutions could stay ahead of the curve by adopting an iterative ‘learn and design’ program creation process that includes understanding current trends across industries, identifying shifts in technical and nontechnical skills, and revamping current programs or designing new ones to best prepare students.
For example, a university in Mexico found that new programs drove 34 percent of all new enrollment between 2016 and 2019. This institution focused on new-program development by identifying changes in job market trends and in-demand occupations, evaluating whether competitors were offering relevant programs to meet these workforce shifts, and making rapid decisions about which new programs to offer based on these factors. The creation of new programs was then centralized through an agile content development team (rather than spread across different “schools”) to ensure efficiency and speed to launch, enabling new programs to be built in less than three months. 13 McKinsey analysis.
Institutions could stay ahead of the curve by adopting an iterative ‘learn and design’ program creation process.
Integrate degree and nondegree offerings. The education sector has traditionally treated degree programs and nondegree certification programs as wholly separate. Each is valuable, and each has its shortcomings. More recently, a broader set of education programs have been gaining acceptance among adult learners, with certificate providers increasingly being considered equivalent to more traditional institutions of higher education. 14 McKinsey Learner Segmentation Survey (n = 3,709). This suggests that institutions could most effectively serve the student population by removing barriers between degree and nondegree programs and by offering an integrated package that incorporates credit-bearing credentials and certificates into the broader journey of earning a degree.
Universities don’t necessarily need to reinvent the wheel to build such integrated programs. To develop an end-to-end solution for students, traditional institutions could partner with established nondegree players such Udacity or Grow with Google. Conversely, nondegree providers could seek to partner with full-degree programs so that their students could earn credit for their work and move toward a degree if they chose to.
City University of New York (CUNY), for example, partnered with the New York Jobs CEO Council to launch the EverUp Micro-Credential Program, which offers 100-hour online intensives alongside traditional degree programs. Shaped by input from the largest employers in New York City, these credentials aim to better prepare students for jobs or internships by helping them master specific job-related skills. 15 “Launch your career with EverUp Micro-Credentials!,” CUNY, accessed March 2022.
Offer multiple models for degree attainment. Respondents to the McKinsey learner survey identified a lack of hands-on experience as a top concern with online learning, with 30 percent saying it was their biggest frustration. Many learners in online-only degree programs are adults or traditional-age students from nontraditional backgrounds who cannot wait until the end of a degree program to apply their practical technical skills in paid or part-time roles. By offering stackable credentials with clear “on-ramps” and “off-ramps” that allow concurrent or sequenced work experience opportunities, programs could meet students’ unique needs and support their overall skill-building trajectory while keeping them engaged and driving completion rates.
2. Transform career planning and coaching services
According to McKinsey’s learner survey, 35 percent of respondents said their top motivation for considering additional education was a stalled career or a stalled career search (Exhibit 3). To provide learners with stronger and better-aligned career outcomes and increase job placement potential in high-paying positions, online institutions could proactively and consistently engage with students to set specific goals, work toward those goals, and adjust programming as needed.
Historically, students have started their career journeys by choosing a major in the first year or two of a degree program and trying to find a job in a related field sometime before graduation. This model assumes that learners are well informed about which programs or courses to pursue and does little to actually support learners throughout their journeys. Merely providing an educational experience with little connection to a learner’s postgraduation context is likely not enough to help students achieve career goals, especially in digital environments where networking, information sessions, and other forms of exposure to careers may lack in quality and quantity. A Strada survey revealed that more than a third of adults would change their field of study if they could do it all over again, with lower levels of regret among higher earners. 16 On second thought: US adults reflect on their education decisions , Strada Education Network, June 2017.
Provide up-front opportunities to explore interests. Before selecting a major, students could take a survey or assessment that captures their passions, skills, and experiences and points them toward multiple majors and related career options that align with their profile. Some institutions, such as Dickinson College and Boston College, have begun to integrate strength and interest exploration into summer orientation sessions to encourage students to think about majors and careers before they even start classes. 17 Jon Marcus, “Some colleges ease up on pushing undergrads into picking majors right away,” The Hechinger Report , July 23, 2021. Equipped with data and information about students’ passions and interests, institutions could help students create personalized studies and skill-building plans early in the program. Unlike degree maps that direct students to follow a predetermined path, personalized plans could break down the process of acquiring a degree and show students how they could accumulate skills over time.
Offer integrative exposure to career pathways. It is important for learners to know whether the careers that are aligned to a prospective major are a solid fit. Institutions could expand and prioritize student access to immersive career experiences, including project-based learning, research opportunities, shadowing, and career-aligned mentoring. 18 “Student outcomes beyond completion: National findings from the 2021 Strada Alumni Survey,” Strada Education Network, October 27, 2021.
Wake Forest University has garnered attention for its revitalized approach to career services. The institution emphasizes career exploration and customized exposure to careers early in the student journey by using profiles on Handshake (a job search and matching platform) to connect students with organizations and companies based on their interests and qualifications. 19 Andy Chan and Christine Cruzvergara, Outcomes and metrics that matter: Embedding career services at higher education’s core , Handshake, September 2021.
Other institutions help students build digital portfolios of work that they can show to potential employers during interviews. This allows firms to see precisely what skills students are learning and how those skills relate to specific job roles through, for example, an employer-facing dashboard that links courses, student activities, and work experiences to specific skills and industries. 20 “Career e-portfolios to help land a job,” San José State University, accessed May 2022.
Adjust and iterate on studies and career plans. As a student progresses through the educational journey, institutions could perform check-ins, advise, and reevaluate personalized course plans more frequently. For example, the University of Colorado Boulder’s Program in Exploratory Studies provides personalized attention to help undergraduate students discover their interests, realign on a major and potential career paths, and adjust course plans accordingly. When the program launched in 2019, about 40 percent of Boulder students were switching majors after realizing a new one might be a better fit. The new advising approach gives students the ability to shift plans with ease. 21 “Some colleges,” July 23, 2021. Some other institutions also offer the ability to flex major requirements or stack credentials when pivoting to another field.
3. Revolutionize employer relationships
Online education providers are uniquely positioned to develop close B2B partnerships with organizations looking to upskill their employee bases and attract new talent. The ability of these providers to rapidly adjust their curricula, combined with their history of serving adult students looking to advance their careers, suggests that such partnerships could be a strong driver of growth.
A recent study by Udacity found that roughly 60 percent of employers said talent gaps are having a major or moderate impact on their business, while a majority of younger people across all regions believe their employers should invest in their future by giving them skill training. 22 Talent transformation global impact report , Udacity and Ipsos, January 2022. However, few educational institutions have made B2B a meaningful source of enrollment growth. Traditional B2B strategies often fail to sufficiently address the talent transformation needs of corporate partners. With employers facing unprecedented talent challenges and prospective students looking for career linkages, the moment may be ripe for rethinking how digital educators pursue B2B partnerships. While the nature of B2B strategies may vary across institutions, we have identified a few emerging, innovative approaches that could help institutions build strong B2B partnerships.
With employers facing unprecedented talent challenges and prospective students looking for career linkages, the moment may be ripe for rethinking how digital educators pursue B2B partnerships.
Focus on career-specific skills that can quickly address employer pain points. Many online institutions offer a broad range of certificate and training programs and seek to show the general value of their education to a potential partner instead of focusing on the skills needed for a specific industry or job function. By researching certain industries or roles, online education providers could identify very specific and practical skills that may meet the most acute talent development pain points. A skills-based approach often requires institutions to develop new content, bundle it, and sequence it in new ways while incorporating project-based learning. Scarce resources can make it difficult for universities to modularize all content simultaneously. Focusing on specific industries and professions can help them get started.
Develop comprehensive enterprise plans for upgrading and adding talent. Online education providers could differentiate their B2B offerings by thinking of themselves as talent development partners or as part of a “corporate academy.” By partnering with learning and development (L&D) teams to offer value-added services such as enterprise-wide assessments for talent transformation, these institutions could increase the value of educational partnerships and help ensure that it results in meaningful ROI for B2B partners. Once a business is enrolled, online education providers could develop personalized plans for each employee and create enterprise-specific reporting platforms that track and display the collective progress of the company’s talent pool. Moreover, providers could offer select student support services that are tailored for a given partner. In addition to developing existing talent, online education providers could innovate go-to-market approaches for attracting new talent to fields with significant labor shortages. For example, they could develop degree and training programs in partnership with employers who promise tuition assistance and jobs for students who complete the program. Talent attraction and development are more important than ever; by solving these problems, an online education provider could become integral to the core business instead of simply a benefit for employees.
Measure impact and ROI. Deeper partnerships that meet the specific needs of employers could drive real business value by filling talent gaps. However, very few, if any, online education providers have measured that impact or demonstrated the full ROI of upskilling employees. This suggests there is a unique opportunity for a nimble, forward-thinking provider to structure partnerships in which ROI is front and center. Measuring the impact of programs that build digital skills could also help unlock more B2B partnerships and greater enrollment growth.
4. Deliver a distinctive learning experience
The COVID-19 pandemic has further influenced consumer behavior and expectations across industries, 23 For more, see “ US consumer sentiment and behaviors during the coronavirus crisis ,” McKinsey, December 14, 2021. including education. Approximately 20 percent of respondents to our survey of US learners said their biggest frustration with online learning was “engaging in real-time conversations through a virtual medium.” About 18 percent of respondents said their top frustration with online learning was “getting the technology to work.”
To meet evolved student expectations, online institutions may want to upgrade their overall digital experience across core content delivery, build supporting tools and infrastructure, and apply best practices in customer experience. In our recent article on improving online higher education, 24 Felipe Child, Marcus Frank, Mariana Lef, and Jimmy Sarakatsannis, “ Setting a new bar for online higher education ,” McKinsey, October 18, 2021. we share the findings of our survey on academic research as well as the practices of more than 30 institutions, including both regulated degree-granting universities and nonregulated lifelong-education providers.
To deliver an outstanding learning experience and better outcomes for students, institutions could focus their efforts on three overarching principles (Exhibit 4):
Seamless journeys. Exceptional delivery includes a user-centered learning platform that is easy to navigate and highly interactive. Elements could include movie trailer–like course previews presented by top instructors, real-time progress dashboards across programs and courses, and integrated, timely alerts that let students know when they are not investing enough time on a topic and offer suggestions for study resources.
An engaging teaching approach. While top-notch faculty and teachers, interactive lessons, and high-quality content are all critical, exceptional delivery also includes supporting a variety of learning settings to adapt to different learning needs. Enabling students to choose a learning format they prefer is one example. Real-time collaboration via group work, breakout rooms for discussion classes, Q&As with professors, and free, embedded access to external resources—such as professional-association standards and newspaper articles—could also help strengthen learning.
A caring network. Strong networks offering both academic and nonacademic support could help institutions accelerate learning and foster the well-being of students. This could include easily accessible, 24/7 troubleshooting support via a live service desk for urgent learning and teaching problems. Other initiatives to consider are program-specific opportunities to enhance student life online, such as personalized meet and greets, special academic invitations, and thematic social clubs, as well as using the right technologies to allow for just-in-time community or adviser support where needed.
5. Build a bold and differentiated brand
In today’s highly competitive market, building a distinctive brand is more important than ever. Our independent analysis of the fastest-growing online universities revealed that their success was due, at least in part, to investing marketing dollars in raising broad-based awareness of their educational offerings. By sustaining these efforts over time, they were able to increase awareness and inbound interest, which ultimately helped drive enrollment. Through our work and our research, we’ve identified three marketing and branding benchmarks providers may want to consider:
A compelling brand message. By initiating the four moves listed above, online education providers could lay the foundation for a distinctive brand message that cuts through the “sea of sameness” that typifies most online education advertising. Simply emphasizing affordability and flexibility may not be enough. Successful brands are not afraid to be bold and elicit both emotional and rational responses from consumers. Shaping a brand message that speaks to people’s dreams for the future, and shows how an institution is innovating to deliver on that promise, could help the institution stand out and motivate prospective students to learn more about it. There are many ways for an institution to differentiate its brand, including focusing on a particular student segment (such as veterans), focusing on a particular field of study (such as healthcare or nursing), or focusing on a distinctive student experience (such as through a differentiated online platform or student support network).
A balanced marketing media mix that delivers sustainable student acquisition costs. Many online education providers developed their marketing strategies during a time of ever-growing demand and limited competition. Those strategies tended to emphasize “bottom of the funnel” tactics such as affiliate marketing and paid-search marketing that aimed to convert prospective students who were close to making a decision. Given the marked increase in competition and growing per-click costs, this strategy may not prove sustainable. Our research shows that the most successful institutions invest at least half of their marketing dollars in broad-reach media that drives organic traffic. While investing more in brand marketing does require patience, it could establish a brand that generates sustainable student acquisition costs over time while helping increase conversion rates across all channels and throughout the enrollment process. The use of digital channels such as video, social media, and audio could allow institutions to reach a broad but still relevant audience. These tactics may also allow institutions to track the impact of these broader marketing efforts by looking at organic traffic and search data.
Our research shows that the most successful institutions invest at least half of their marketing dollars in broad-reach media that drives organic traffic.
Use of authentic voices to build credibility. Institutions may benefit from creating opportunities for current and former students to communicate the value of their programs to the broader public. Successful students take great pride in their accomplishments and are often happy to share their experiences. Moreover, they can deliver authentic and credible messages. As more and more prospective students turn to TikTok, Instagram, and YouTube to research schools, promoting user-generated content could go a long way toward driving interest and enrollment growth.
Institutions may also want to ensure that their branding is sustained throughout the admissions process. Instead of using a rigid, sometimes overly persistent model that focuses on outbound phone calls and cookie-cutter information, institutions can instead adopt a flexible engagement model that provides personalized information and respects the audience’s time.
Admissions teams could also diversify how they interact with prospective students and work seamlessly across SMS, email, phone, and videoconferencing to provide information and answer questions. In this new model, admissions officers become more than a single point of contact, instead connecting students to online information and to people in other parts of the organization, such as alumni or faculty, who could help them make informed decisions.
This new approach to branding and admissions might sound like common sense, but many organizations have optimized their old models over decades. Thoroughly changing a branding strategy often requires a fundamental restructuring of the way institutions work, the skills they employ, and how they measure success.
While making progress in these five strategic areas could yield growth, doing all five in unison is likely to produce the greatest impact.
To compete and grow, digital-learning providers may benefit from moving fast and cross-functionally and making rapid decisions based on data. Executing these five big moves will likely require the investment and involvement of the full organization. McKinsey analysis suggests that for most institutions, this path will represent a full transformation of current operations; lessons discussed in other education insights may be helpful in that effort. This path also requires a willingness to look beyond education for ideas and expertise and to find new technologies from across the digital economy. Blazing the path to a new frontier of online education is daunting, but those that do it could grow their impact while supporting students.

Covid-19 had some profound adverse impacts on the global advanced ceramics market.
COVID-19 spread across the world from China, making the whole world stand still and to a complete lockdown situation. Covid-19 is an infectious disease that was caused by a newly discovered coronavirus. During the time, the fatality rate among the population above 40 was also high globally. The disease causes severe illness for people suffering from medical conditions like diabetes, cardiovascular disease, chronic respiratory disease, etc.
Considering the situation during that time, it was declared a pandemic which led to numerous countries, including the major economies like China, the United States, India, and others, implementing lockdowns which adversely affected the global economy.
In the first two quarters of 2020, the economic and industrial operations temporarily halted. Almost every manufacturing unit where advanced ceramics is used, such as electrical and electronics, transportation, industrial, chemical, and other End-user Industries (except medical), reduced their manufacturing capacities due to the lack of workers. The lockdown implemented put a halt to global supply chains. This resulted in repercussions in terms of both production and demand for advanced ceramics.
Market Recovery Timeline and Challenges
With time the lockdowns were uplifted, and relaxation was made to the public. Gradually, the economy picked up the pace and started its operations, bringing the demand in the global advanced ceramics market and increasing among various industries. As the situation improved during the initial months of 2021, the economies also strengthened their fiscal policies and initiated their development process; the end-user industries began their activities, bringing the overall ceramics market back on track.

Online education or e-learning is an education methodology delivered online or with the aid of electronic media without using a classroom. E-Learning is also known as the network-based transfer of skills and knowledge. It is widely used in the field by many multinational corporations to provide training and special lectures to their employees. Also, in most cases, e-learning is used by students to replace paper and pen teaching. E-learning is just a mechanism or channel of delivery that can be delivered through the most common audio-visual means.
E-learning can also be used as a hybrid model, complementing the traditional education model that was confined to the surrounding space. In addition, through the continuous development of this mode, through rigorous research to perfect the delivery mechanism, it can be more suitable or adapted to the needs of students. E-learning platforms are developed in a way that helps students better understand and retain knowledge over a longer period of time.
Online education has emerged as a transformative force in today's digital era , offering a convenient and flexible alternative to traditional brick-and-mortar institutions. Online schools and learning platforms have revolutionized the way we acquire knowledge and skills, providing a wide range of courses and degree programs. Whether one seeks to enhance their professional expertise or pursue a teaching career, obtaining an online teaching degree or an online education degree has become increasingly accessible. The dynamic nature of online learning empowers individuals to tailor their educational journey to their specific needs and schedules, fostering a lifelong love for learning in the virtual classroom.
Market Dynamics:
The online education market is driven by many drivers, but efficiency is important, especially as it provides efficient ways to impart knowledge to both teachers and students in modes such as PDFs, podcasts, and videos. It is beyond the reach of pen and paper. E-learning also provides access in time and place, helping schools and other educational institutions reach out to all other students. The e-learning platform is less expensive than the regular pen-and-paper model and easier on the environment. Also, this can be a blessing for financially underprivileged students seeking a quality education. It also incorporates both slow and fast learners, making it suitable for a variety of learning styles. Additionally, since both students and teachers have access to this cohort, it has been demonstrated to improve attendance rates.
Restraints:
The major limitations in this sector relate to reliable technology and other technical issues that hinder smooth and effective learning. And with modern kids wanting to be online and on-screen all the time, health risks could be a constraint in the days to come. Advances in 5G networks have great potential for online learning as the advent of connected technologies will allow teachers or parents to better track student performance and gain better insight into a student's learning methodology.

E-Learning Market: Overview
The global e-learning market size was worth USD 235.5 billion in 2022 and is estimated to grow to USD 648.6 billion by 2030, with a CAGR of approximately 13.50 % over the forecast from 2023 to 2030.
E-learning imparts students’ knowledge through electronic media, including audio, video, e-books, AR/VR, and other media. Students that use e-learning have a variety of compensations, such as reasonable education and access to focused course material. Additionally, because it improves employee performance, e-learning has assimilated into the majority of firms. The rise in remote learning during the pandemic and the demand for affordable, practical learning systems benefit the market’s expansion. The increased usage of artificial intelligence and machine learning in e-learning systems also contributes to the market’s expansion internationally. But problems like the absence of face-to-face contact in e-learning systems and the requirement for stronger self-motivation restrict the growth of the e-learning business.
COVID-19 Effect:
The COVID-19 pandemic outbreak caused a significant upsurge in the market in 2020. This is because businesses and governments in most nations have implemented numerous skill-improvement campaigns. Due to increased investment in skill evaluation technologies for a better understanding of the workforce on an emotional and cultural scale, the e-learning industry is predicted to thrive in the COVID-19 environment. It is now obvious that COVID-19 will have long-term effects on people’s lives and economies, increasing the demand for e-learning along with the rise in the need for skilled labor and the expansion of government efforts to raise the overall worker level, both of which have a positive effect on market growth.
E-Learning Market Drivers:
Since it allows for tailored information based on each student’s prior knowledge and offers a one-size-fits-all approach, the use of AI and machine learning has increased across e-learning platforms. In addition, utilizing AI and ML makes it feasible to quickly analyze massive volumes of data and detect patterns and trends to optimize and continuously improve learning experiences. It facilitates a more straightforward, quick, and flexible course-building process without compromising quality. Additionally, it is now possible to create multi-language content for multinational corporations that must provide relevant material for branches in other countries or for the scenario that is becoming more typical: businesses operating with remote staff that speak different languages. Therefore, increasing these advances is anticipated to bring about profitable opportunities for the industry.
E-Learning Market: Restraints
In-house content creators collaborate with instructors to produce a few courses, adding pictures and videos and tweaking them based on feedback and learner engagement. Because there is a demand for courseware, third-party content suppliers have difficulties because internal subject matter experts can create content. The global eLearning industry is anticipated to suffer from the rise in in-house content development. To support the online platforms, blended eLearning also needs online study resources and associated services. Schools and colleges aim to provide students with effective digital learning opportunities that can be used to assess student engagement, track progress, and gather feedback.
E-Learning Market: Segmentation
The global e-learning market has been segmented into technology, grid type, installation, and application.
Based on delivery mode, the market is divided into packaged content, learning management software (LMS), and others. Among these, the packaged content segment led the market in 2021 and is expected to maintain its dominance throughout the forecast period. The need for packaged content for e-learning is rising, mostly due to corporate workers’ desire to advance their skill sets. For instance, there is a growing need for certain talents in the fields of big data, artificial intelligence, and virtual reality. Several vendors have experienced tremendous growth during the past few years. With rising corporate demands, the bundled e-learning content industry will expand. Besides this, the learning management software (LMS) category is expected to grow the fastest throughout the forecast period. Companies are continually looking for ways to offer proper training due to the growing requirement to develop and train staff. LMS aids in re-educating staff and managing the process so that further small adjustments can be made or a product line can be refurbished.
Based on learning mode, the market is classified into self-paced and instructor-led. In 2021, the self-paced category dominated the global market. Flexibility in learning is provided via self-paced online learning. The expanding attitude among people to better their professional prospects and increase their skill-based competence is a significant growth driver of the self-paced e-learning market. On the other hand, the instructor-led category is anticipated to grow at a significant rate over the forecast period. With this kind of instruction, more students can be accommodated without using up more resources or room than required in a traditional classroom. Everywhere in the world can send students there.
E-Learning Market: Regional Landscape

The same is further supported by technologically savvy companies that demand advanced linguistic competence, functional and vocational knowledge, and soft skills. North America’s market growth is mostly influenced by the US’s high demand for e-learning solutions. The industry is developing due to the expanding trend of using online courses and learning resources as a workable replacement for conventional classroom training.

Online Education Market Insights
Global Online Education Market size was valued at USD 38.72 billion in 2022 and is poised to grow from USD 48.05 billion in 2023 to USD 270.32 billion by 2031, at a CAGR of 24.10% during the forecast period (2024-2031).
Global internet usage is rising, which will support industrial expansion. The burgeoning telecom and bandwidth industries have increased access to reasonably priced internet solutions. In order to satisfy the growing demand, many companies are focusing on offering specialised learning solutions. By 2028, we predict that more than 64% of all sales in the online education/e-learning sector would be made up of hardware. The digitization of education has increased the usage of cutting-edge hardware computing technologies in the educational process, including smartphones. Due to its better interoperability with different software solutions including assessment tools, apps, and games, tablets are predicted to be the device that is utilised in education the most. Nearly 300 million people, according to GSMA Intelligence, made their first internet connection. According to a GSMA report titled "State of the Mobile Internet Connectivity - 2022," 4.3 billion people would have access to mobile internet by the end of 2022, an increase of about 300 million customers/users. The recession, among other causes, caused funding to dry up for startups, which led to workforce reductions at digital education companies, which were the most severely impacted of all startups. One-third of individuals employed in the digital education sector, or approximately 10,000 workers, were let go by Indian startups between July 2022 and March 2023. End consumers are embracing online learning more frequently as a result of the availability of free information, and ed-tech companies see this as a new potential to make money. For instance, since making content freely available, BYJU, one of the most valuable Edtech start-ups in India, has added 7.5 million new users to its platform.

Global Online Education Market is segmented on the basis of learning type, component, software, end user and region. By end user, the market is segmented into academic institutions & individuals and enterprises. By learning type, market is segmented into self-paced and instructor-led. By component, the market is segmented into laptop, mobile, pc. By software , the market is segmented into world class, course play, yuja. By region, the market is segmented into North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, Middle East and Africa, and Latin America.
Online Education Market Analysis by Learning Type
In 2022, the self-paced market category held the top spot with a 65% market share worldwide. The benefits of self-paced learning include lower pressure during live training, the ability to set one's own schedule, less distraction, convenience for various learning styles, and lower cost. For instance, a large source of self-paced educational content is YouTube. Brain Pop and Brain Pop Jr., Education Galaxy, Gimkit, GrammarFlip, Kialo Edu, and Knoword are other resources that support self-paced learning.
During the forecast period, the segment that includes instructor-led classes is anticipated to grow at the highest CAGR. Instructor-led and self-paced learning styles are the market segments. The term "instructor-led learning" refers to education that is provided by one or more instructors in the form of lectures, presentations, demonstrations, and conversations in addition to other methods like face-to-face instruction. Although one-on-one training is less common and more expensive in comparison, the instructor typically addresses groups. To enhance the digital learning experience, the instructor-led training is credited with using a number of approaches, including games, exercises, and role-playing.
Online Education Market Analysis by End User
Over 80% of global revenue was generated by the academic institutions and individuals’ segment in 2022, which led the market. The market is segmented by end-users into individuals, businesses, and academic institutions. Adopting digital education as one of their offerings gives them a competitive advantage over academic institutions. During the epidemic, institutions that only operated offline were affected by the limits put in place; those who saw this as an opportunity and began providing online services will inevitably succeed where others fail.
In order for businesses to survive, they must use the digital medium. The best services must be offered to customers in order to meet their constantly changing expectations. The pandemic's aftermath has also greatly altered expectations. In order to succeed as a business, organizations must be able to meet these expectations and adapt to the new operating environment.

By accounting for more than 38% of global revenue in 2022, North America will dominate the market. This is a result of the rapid product and geographic expansion strategy employed by market vendors to gain a competitive edge. The North American market, on the other hand, is anticipated to exhibit a consistent growth trend during the forecast period. Furthermore, it is anticipated that the North American region's digital education will improve as a result of the increased focus on infrastructure, network, and connectivity.
Over the forecast period, the Asia Pacific market is anticipated to have the highest CAGR. Due to the high smartphone ownership rates in emerging economies in the Asia Pacific region, there is considerable potential for the broad adoption of digital education. This is one of the key elements that experts believe will soon increase demand for digital education in this area. For instance, Nirmala Sitharaman, the union finance minister, introduced the PM eVidya Programme in India in May 2022 with the goal of promoting digital education in that country. It was decided to give teachers and students unrestricted access to digital learning.

Online Education Market Dynamics
Online Education Market Drivers
Increasing Internet Penetration to Bolster market growth
- The growing number of internet users worldwide has significantly contributed to the growth of the online education market. According to a report by the United Nations, more than half of the world's population is now connected to the internet. This has opened up new opportunities for online education providers to reach a broader audience and offer their services globally.
- The traditional education system is often rigid and may not cater to the needs of all students, especially those who have work or family commitments. Online education, on the other hand, offers greater flexibility and accessibility to learners, allowing them to study at their own pace and from any location. This has led to a surge in demand for online education, particularly in developing countries where access to traditional education is limited.
Online Education Market Restraints
Regulatory Hurdles to Hinder market growth
Regulatory hurdles to slow down market growth in the online education market address the problems and barriers made by governments’ rules and legal orders against advancement in online education. The regulatory barriers might come in various forms, such as accreditation criteria, licensing processes, and compliance regulations that the online education suppliers are expected to meet. These barriers can have a significant impact on market growth as they increase the costs of entry, hinder other players from entering the market, and create cumbersome bureaucratic processes for existing firms. Also, inconsistent regulatory environments in diverse regions/countries may result in fragmentation of the market with respect to on-line education, thereby hindering expansion prospects and opportunities. In summary, such challenges make it difficult for both providers and consumers to participate in online education activities.

This can be attributed to benefits such as personalized learning experience and better engagement with tutors that this type offers over other types such as on-demand tutoring. On-demand tutoring segment is expected to grow at a higher CAGR during 2018-2028 owing to its advantages such as affordability and convenience over other types. Based on application, the preprimary school segment dominates in terms of revenue contribution in 2017; however, the primary school segment is projected to register the highest CAGR during the forecast period due to the high adoption rate by parents for their children’s overall development.

The primary school segment is expected to witness considerable growth during the forecast period owing to increasing enrollments across countries including India, China, South Africa, and Australia.

Regional Analysis:
The Asia Pacific dominated the global online education market in terms of revenue share in 2019. The region is expected to continue its dominance over the forecast period. This can be attributed to the increasing penetration of digital devices and internet connectivity across emerging economies, such as China and India. Moreover, rising awareness regarding various educational options available online coupled with growing affordability issues is some other factors driving regional growth.
North America is projected to witness significant growth over the forecast period owing to an increase in preference for Blended Learning models that incorporate technology-based teaching methods along with traditional classroom teaching approaches for effective learning outcomes among students across grade levels K-12. In addition, a rise in high school completion rates has led many parents and schools toward offering additional Educational Services through online platforms thereby fueling regional demand during the forecast years from 2020 to 2028.

Online Education Market Trends
Increasing demand for adaptive learning.
E-learning resources are self-contained and can be accessed whenever the user desires. They do not necessitate the learner's actual presence in a classroom. Students can also use the system to download and save their learning materials for later use. E-learning systems can update study materials more frequently than classroom-based education systems. Once the study materials are in the system, they may be updated without having to replace the entire set, and they can be accessed and reused for longer periods. For many students, e-learning is a convenient way to learn. Most study resources are kept so that students can access them whenever they wish. Students can also opt for an instructor-led or self-paced learning system. Students can also skip through study materials they already know in e-learning systems and pick and select which ones they want to learn.
A global learning society E-learning technologies contribute to the creation of a global learning society by allowing everyone, regardless of geographic location, to access study resources. Learners can now contribute to study materials using the systems that are now accessible, which helps keep the contents up to date. Thus, the increasing demand for adaptive learning is expected to present lucrative opportunities for the players operating in the Online Education Market.

Online Education Industry Boom: Should We Invest Online Education Companies Right Now?
Author: Joyce Chen, Graphic: Ming Dong
The BRB Bottomline
The online education industry is expected to experience rapid growth during the COVID-19 pandemic since the majority of schools are closed. The leading online education companies such as Chegg, Coursera, and Udacity may have promising long-term growth due to the COVID-19 lockdown, but they may not be optimal investments as of now.
Online Education Industry Overview
Online education stocks have been one of the hottest areas to look at in recent years. The rising costs of college education and textbooks compes students to search for a digital education platform with cheaper prices. According to the recent report from Follett, since 1978, college textbooks have risen 812 percent in price—more than twice as fast as the price of a new home. This means a book purchased in 1978 for $25 would now cost $203. To combat the rising cost of college textbooks, many students have shifted their focus to digital education platforms.
Though the online education industry has experienced rapid growth during the coronavirus pandemic, the statistics show that even before COVID-19, there was already high growth and adoption in education technology with global edtech investments reaching $18.66 billion in 2019 , and the overall market for online education is projected to reach $350 Billion by 2025 .
The redefinition of learning spaces in 2010 helped transition learning spaces from traditional classroom methods of teaching towards workshop-like environments. In conjunction with this, the ‘lessons’ changed toward more interactive methods of discussions and collaborative learning . Such transformations of the learning space helped address students’ individual needs, requirements , and preferences. The recent coronavirus pandemic also serves as a catalyst for the growth of the online education industry as most schools are closed and face-to-face classes are suspended due to concerns for students’ safety.
Hence, all the industrial tailwinds have brought momentum to online education stocks. Investors are optimistic about the prospects of the industry and believe that it’s time to buy online education stocks.
Potential Challenges and Case Studies
However, there are still some potential challenges in the online education industry that imply that although the industry might have long-term growth in the future, an online education stock may not be a good choice for investors to buy right now. The potential challenges such as the high costs of the higher education digital system , supplementary nature of online education platform for traditional education, uncertainty of the persistence of coronavirus pandemic, quality and accreditation for the online tutors, and the lack of in-person interactions with not only the teachers as well as classmates may hinder the growth for the online education industry.
Therefore, the investors should be cautious about their decision of whether or not to invest in online education stocks at this time. In this article, we will focus mainly on three leading online education companies—Chegg, Inc.; Coursera; and Udacity—to examine how the potential challenges that exist in the industry may adversely impact their stocks’ growth.
Chegg, Inc.
Chegg is a direct-to-student learning platform that provides digital and physical textbook rentals, online tutoring, and other student services. It allows students to find human help on its learning platform through a network of live tutors. Recently, its stock (NYSE: CHGG) has a 150% upside due to the increase in its revenue by 35% to $131.6 million and is expected to have long-term growth after the COVID-19 pandemic with 25% earnings growth annually .
Chegg is viewed as a promising stock to follow for long-term investment mainly because of its remarkable increase in margins, cheaper and convenient platform to buy college textbooks, and its potentiality during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Furthermore, looking at recent school openings and closures, our current state of uncertainty is likely to persist for the near future. Therefore, online education assistance is needed at this time. Though teachers may still provide lectures and office hours virtually, students still experience difficulties when reaching out to the teachers for help mainly due to the time zone differences and late response issues. Therefore, Chegg’s convenient and professional learning platform is favored by many students.
However, although Chegg is expected to have long-term growth in the future, it may not be the right time to buy this stock for now as there are some potential challenges.
Since students were already moving toward virtual learning through Chegg in greater numbers before schools were required to transition to online education, it will not be expected to have rapid growth due to the outbreak of COVID-19. Before the COVID-19 outbreak, Chegg already had 3.9 million subscribers with a steady customer growth rate at 29% year-over-year . Since Chegg has already acquired a large customer base and had a steady customer growth rate, the COVID-19 outbreak may not add great value to its revenue growth.
Also, the economy’s return to normalcy can be a signal of the resumption of the established ways for schooling, which can be a threat to Chegg’s earnings growth in future fiscal years since 64% of Chegg’s customers use Chegg for answering academic questions . If school returns back to normal, students will be able to reach out to their teachers in-person. Hence, the frequency and the necessity of using Chegg as a platform for academic assistance may fall.
Furthermore, the high cost of the higher education digital system may have an adverse effect on Chegg’s future growth. Chegg has generated a great number of operating expenses . Though its total operating expenses decreased from 71% in the previous year to 57% in the most recent quarter , Chegg still has a very low EBITDA margin of 11.7%. This may hint that Chegg may fail to drive a stronger net margin in the future due to the high cost of education digital systems. Its high operating expenses may be a sign of its inability to control its costs and make its business more profitable in the future. Hence, Chegg may not be an optimal investment choice for the investor as its return on investment in the future years is not expected to significantly increase.
Coursera is an American massive open online course provider. It offers an extensive list of online courses, specializations, degrees, and professional and master track courses to students. Recently, Coursera’s enrollments have quintupled year over year . Benefiting from the COVID-19 outbreak and the closure of schools, Coursera has seen more than 25 million enrollments since mid-March, a 520% increase from the same period last year .
Coursera is viewed as a promising company to invest in for now mainly due to the diversified courses that it provides, cheaper prices, remarkable growth margins, and the COVID-19 outbreak.
Though Coursera demonstrated its charming potential for future growth, it may not be a good investment for the investors at this time.
Although there was a dramatic increase in enrollment in March due to COVID-19 , we cannot tell for the long-term since students can receive education in school when everything returns to normal. Considering the fact that over 75% of its customers use Coursera only as a supplementary tool for their study and school education is still their primary choice, Coursera cannot replace traditional education. Therefore, this fact may hinder Coursera’s potential growth in the future and imply that its platform cannot fully replace traditional education. Hence, there is expected to be a revenue and enrollment recession after the COVID-19 pandemic ends and students go back to school.
Moreover, although Coursera can be seen as a virtual classroom for the students to learn, it is not just the classroom that prompts many students to study internationally, but also the irreplaceable cultural experiences that international study offers. Therefore, international students may be more likely to use the online education platform as a supplement tool for school materials than domestic students. Since Coursera’s users come from over 29 countries , its international users may still like to have traditional education in order to gain better cultural experience through in-person study. Therefore, Coursera’s online education platform may not be able to replace traditional education due to its significant customer portion of international students.
Other issues, such as uncertainty over accreditation and quality control, also remain unresolved. Since many instructors from Coursera work part-time, it’s hard to evaluate the consistent quality of the course. Also, since the cross-institutional credit systems are a challenge even for traditional education systems, the flexibility of online learning could make this even more chaotic. Because Coursera does not have specified and well-tailored rules for the credit exchange system, the operation process can be tedious and disordered.
Udacity is an American massive open online course provider aimed at professional adults and students. Its mission is to train the world’s workforce in the careers of the future. It provides various courses about programming, computer science, and data science that help students to be prepared for their future career path. Recently, Udemy has revealed a 260% increase in annual recurring revenue growth .
Udacity is viewed as a promising company to invest in for now mainly due to the sharp increase in demand from businesses, government agencies, and learners looking to accelerate digital transformation and develop skills in technologies as well as the career-oriented courses that help students prepare for future career paths in advance.
However, this stock may not be a good investment right now as there are some potential challenges.
Although there is a dramatic increase in annual recurring revenue growth, Udacity may lose its customers due to its relatively high charges for their courses. Its most popular programs, Nanodegrees , used to cost $199 per month last year. However, since then, their price increased significantly, reaching $499 per month . Given the fact that the competition in the online education industry is highly intense and customers are sensitive to the prices, Udacity’s relatively high price may threaten its ability to retain and acquire its customers if there are other alternative options with lower prices. For example, when you compare Udacity’s Nanodegrees with the specializations featured on Coursera, it is quite difficult to justify the price of $499 when you could pay only $40 . In terms of depth, complexity, and course content, both e-Learning platforms have plenty of similarities, and they both offer good value .
Furthermore, Udacity also suffers from uncertainty over accreditation and quality control. Unlike other online education platforms that choose their tutors based on those people’s academic credentials, Udacity chooses its instructors based on their work experience instead. Therefore, while many of the instructors from other education platforms are university professors, Udacity’s instructors come from various companies such as YouTube, Amazon, Google, and Facebook . It can cause the issue of unproven credentials since those who have a lot of work experience may not be good at teaching the knowledge as the university professors do.
Take-Home Points
Though investors are excited about the rapid growth of the online education industry due to the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic and the closings of schools, by examining leading online education companies such as Chegg, Coursera, and Udacity, we find that this industry may not be a good choice to invest in at this time due to many potential challenges and uncertainties. The challenges such as the high costs of the higher education digital system, supplementary nature of online education platform for the traditional education, uncertainty of the persistence of coronavirus pandemic, quality and accreditation for the online tutors, and the lack of in-person interactions with teachers and classmates may hinder the growth for the online education industry. Therefore, investors should be cautious about their decision to invest in online education.
Awesome that is a really good. Nice work.

Fascinating Facts About Online Education in 2023
A lot of surprising facts exist about the online education market that most people have never heard because the legacy media have never devoted much attention to those kinds of stories. And that’s especially true of the legacy business press, which frequently appears to downplay some major developments in this arena.
Below we present some of the statistics our team has run across recently here at OnlineEducation.com that struck us as fascinating.
But first, we kick off our report with one particularly fascinating statistic because it’s so widely reported—and yet so completely false.
IBM: The False Statistic Everyone Needs to Know
Before we present some of our investigation’s more interesting statistics, a caveat is in order. In our research, we ran across hundreds of assertions about online education purported to be facts, yet provided without citations or URL links to actual sources. Most of these unverified assertions continue to appear online after their first publication many years ago, even on websites that ostensibly appear to be credible and reliable sources.
The most extreme example relates to a statement attributed to IBM about productivity gains from e-learning. This assertion has probably been used tens of thousands of times worldwide in the online education industry—in vendor sales proposals, investment decisions, and startup company business plans and pitches to venture capital investors. “Nobody ever got fired for buying IBM” was a mantra of the business community throughout the 1980s, before Big Blue’s downsizing bloodbath after financial problems forced tens of thousands of layoffs late in the decade and an end to the company’s famous no-layoff policy.
Yet 34 years later, the IBM brand retains so much cachet that it still delivers magical credibility to facts and data linked with it—whether or not those assertions might actually be true or associated with IBM at all.
Although the precise language varies, one can find on Google hundreds of articles and documents containing an assertion that every dollar invested in online education returns $30 from gains in productivity. Usually attributed to a 2014 IBM white paper entitled “ The Value of Training ,” some of the plausible reasons cited are that enterprise employees trained online can promptly apply their new skills on the job and resume work more rapidly, presumably because they wouldn’t need to travel to another city and stay in a hotel to attend training seminars as typical before 2020 (and as we also discuss below.)
A frequently shared 2016 infographic that’s still online even claims this effect to be especially relevant for sales professionals whose earnings depend upon time spent in the field. Nevertheless, this statistic is false . It’s unequivocally complete and total nonsense.
In 2019 the British management consulting firm Learning Accelerators Ltd. launched an investigation after they could not find any discussion of this statistic in IBM’s report. What they learned was that in a different white paper titled “The Value of Training—and the High Cost of Doing Nothing,” IBM had cited a widely-quoted 200-page 1999 study by Merrill Lynch that described how Motorola estimated that “every dollar spent on training yielded US $30 in productivity gains within three years.”
However, Motorola was talking about corporate training in general . The company could not possibly have been talking about online training in 1999, which as Learning Accelerators correctly points out, did not exist in its current form nearly a quarter of a century ago.
Besides the public’s continuing trust in IBM’s brand, Learning Accelerators posits another explanation for why this outlandish claim about investment returns has proliferated so widely. The firm argues that writers at vendors and other outlets appear to be blatantly plagiarizing material from lists of “e-learning statistics” without performing any fact-checking or due diligence. The firm then raises a provocative legal issue:
In this case no “Investment Disclaimer” appears to have been applied and the information provided to many buyers of eLearning products and services appears to be demonstrably incorrect. Which raises the interesting question—if a vendor proposal for eLearning products or services was originally accepted on the basis of faulty investment advice and the client is later disappointed by the low productivity return—does any potential financial liability arise?
We relay this story about the bogus “IBM” data to raise an important point related to statistics about the online education industry. Unlike the legions of writers who should know better than to parrot nonsense about the returns from e-learning without performing any fact-checking, we’ve taken appropriate steps to verify all the interesting statistics that appear below.
Nonetheless, because so many of the statistics about this industry shared online are demonstrably false, readers still need to exercise heightened critical thinking and discernment skills whenever they see a statistic like that one on the internet. And that’s especially true if they might be making a high-value business or investment decision based in part on that sort of assertion.
Online Education Market Growth Forecasts Are Staggering
Most people have yet to learn of just how enormous the worldwide market for online education is becoming. The economic statistics website Statista forecasts that the total global online education market, including all market segments, will approach $400 billion by 2026 . That’s double the market size of $200 billion only seven years earlier in 2019.
The statistics platform similarly expects some key market segments also to double. These include the segments for learning management systems, from $18 to $36 billion. They also include the rapid e-learning market, from $2.0 to $4.5 billion. However, some segments are poised for even more spectacular growth. For example, Statista forecasts the market for virtual classrooms to triple, from $11.5 to $33.5 billion.
Statista’s projections are probably a 2022 update of the estimates originally reported in “ Global E-Learning Market Analysis 2019 ,” a study compiled by Syngene Research. At that time Syngene estimated that the market would reach $336.98 billion by 2026, and would likely grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 9.1 percent between 2018 and 2026.
Student Demand for Online Learning Is Exploding
Sixty-six percent of Americans have been more motivated to seek online learning since the pandemic began. We know that’s a fact because during 2020, Coursera’s user base climbed by two-thirds , from 45 million learners in 2019 to 75 million in 2021.
As a result, a 2022 analysis of online learning trends by the Vancouver-based online course creation software developer Thinkific shows unprecedented surges in student demand for online instruction between 2019 and 2021, irrespective of economic sector or market segment.
For example, student demand for software and technology courses skyrocketed by 3,600 percent. Meanwhile, demand for health and fitness instruction increased by 2,650 percent, while arts and entertainment courses climbed 2,500 percent.
Compared with the tech courses, marketing and business education posted anemic gains of only 1,820 percent, and personal development instruction ended up in the study’s cellar, gaining a paltry 1,270 percent.
Enterprise customers are also snatching up online courses for their employees. So far, about 2,300 companies have signed up for the new Coursera Business product line, including a quarter of the Fortune 500. Why would those firms do that? An analysis prepared by KPMG International in 2015 indicates that travel expenses alone, such as flights and hotel stays, account for up to 60 percent of total employee training costs—and companies that switch to online education never pay all these costs .
Completion Rates in a New Kind of Online Course Are Approaching 100 Percent
MOOCs, or massive open online courses , have been plagued by minuscule completion rates for years. For example, this MIT study published in the journal Science found completion rates typically around three percent for many such courses.
But a new type of online course boasts spectacular completion rates above 70 percent, and in many classes, rates approaching 100 percent. Hailed as the “ beginning of a new era of online education ,” these courses are known as cohort-based courses , or CBCs.
This “new era” characterization seems ironic because this model is nothing more than the traditional in-person higher education model ported to an online environment. Unlike the flexible and individualized asynchronous online courses that take advantage of many of the best capabilities available through online instruction, CBCs are more rigid courses taken by a group of students—the cohort —at the same time. Such students learn from their teachers in a live environment where they interact, collaborate, and compete for grades with classmates. They progress through the syllabus topics together at the same pace, all graduate simultaneously, and enjoy access to their own alumni network.
Reportedly the results include a sense of community and high accountability, which lead to dazzling completion rates. One of the first cohort programs, the 2016 altMBA led by Seth Godin, surprised observers when it returned a completion rate of 96 percent .
Another online education startup, New York University marketing professor Scott Galloway’s Section 4, boasts completion rates above 70 percent . And Professor David Shrier of London’s Imperial College Business School reports routine completion rates for his similar executive education startup Esme Learning of 98 to 100 percent .
Four of America’s Biggest Startups Are EdTech Unicorns Worth $24 Billion
Most of us have never heard of most of the obscure companies within the current crop of venture-funded startups in the United States. However, as Statista also describes in their report “Leading EdTech Unicorns Worldwide in 2022, by Valuation,” four of these American unicorns are online education providers poised for massive growth, and their valuations are colossal:
Today, business coaching is big business. The firm currently with the largest market capitalization, San Francisco-based BetterUp offers an artificial intelligence platform that matches enterprise employees with peak performance coaches for online corporate training and development purposes. Its current valuation is about $4.7 billion.
The next best-capitalized firm, New York City-based Articulate develops and markets an online course-building platform similar to Thinkific or Teachable, but geared instead for corporate workplace training and enterprise management systems. Articulate currently carries a market capitalization of about $3.7 billion.
Course Hero
Course Hero embodies the ultimate “I wish I had thought of that first” business concept. Whoever would have thought only a couple of years ago that collections of university course lecture notes and old tests could be fashioned into a multi-billion-dollar online business? Silicon Valley-based Course Hero provides study resources that support college and graduate students through its online learning platform valued at about $3.6 billion.
San Francisco-based Handshake’s platform helps college and graduate students win internship and job offers at graduation. The firm provides an online career network that matches students with corporate recruiters and hiring companies. Like Course Hero, Handshake’s current market cap is about $3.6 billion.
Douglas Mark
While a partner in a San Francisco marketing and design firm, for over 20 years Douglas Mark wrote online and print content for the world’s biggest brands , including United Airlines, Union Bank, Ziff Davis, Sebastiani and AT&T.
Since his first magazine article appeared in MacUser in 1995, he’s also written on finance and graduate business education in addition to mobile online devices, apps, and technology. He graduated in the top 1 percent of his class with a business administration degree from the University of Illinois and studied computer science at Stanford University.

Online education is rapidly advancing, thanks to the continuous advancements in educational technology (EdTech). As we head toward the end of 2024, several transformative trends are emerging, promising to revolutionize the way learners interact with educational content. In this article, we’ll explore the top EdTech trends that are set to shape online learning in the coming year.
Personalized Learning Algorithms
One of the most exciting trends in EdTech is the development of personalized learning algorithms . These algorithms use data analytics to assess a student’s learning style, strengths, and weaknesses. By doing so, they can tailor educational content to meet the individual needs of each learner. This approach not only enhances learning outcomes but also makes the educational process more engaging and efficient.
Data-Driven Insights
The increasing use of data analytics in EdTech means that educators and institutions have access to valuable insights about student performance and engagement. By analyzing this data, educators can make informed decisions about curriculum design, teaching strategies, and resource allocation, ultimately improving educational outcomes. When examining the growth and trends in the online education sector, one useful resource is the statistics on the online course industry for 2024. These statistics offer insights into the current state and future projections, aiding educators and developers in making informed decisions.
Microlearning
Microlearning is a trend that focuses on delivering educational content in small, manageable chunks. This approach aligns well with the busy schedules of learners who may not have the time for long study sessions. Microlearning modules are also ideal for mobile learning, allowing students to engage with content on the go.
Artificial Intelligence (AI) Tutors
AI tutors are becoming increasingly sophisticated, offering students instant feedback and support. These virtual tutors can answer questions, provide explanations, and even grade assignments. As AI technology continues to improve, we can expect these tutors to become even more effective, providing students with a highly responsive and personalized learning experience.
Blockchain for Credentialing
Blockchain technology is making its way into the educational sector, primarily for credentialing purposes. By using blockchain, educational institutions can issue digital diplomas and certificates that are tamper-proof and easily verifiable. This technology enhances the security and integrity of academic credentials, making it easier for employers to verify the qualifications of potential hires.
Interactive and Gamified Learning
Gamification is not a new concept, but its application in online learning is gaining momentum. By incorporating game-like elements such as points, badges, and leaderboards, educational platforms are making learning more fun and engaging. This trend appeals particularly to younger learners, who are accustomed to interactive and immersive digital experiences.
Social Learning Platforms
Social learning platforms are leveraging the power of social networks to enhance educational experiences. These platforms allow students to collaborate, share resources, and learn from each other. By fostering a sense of community, social learning platforms can increase student engagement and motivation.
Virtual and Augmented Reality (VR/AR)
Virtual and Augmented Reality technologies are breaking new ground in education. VR can transport students to different times and places, creating immersive learning environments that were previously unimaginable. AR, on the other hand, can overlay digital information onto the real world, enhancing understanding and retention. These technologies are especially useful in subjects that benefit from visual and experiential learning, such as history, science, and engineering.
Global Classroom Connectivity
Another trend gaining traction is the concept of global classroom connectivity. By using advanced online platforms, teachers and students from different parts of the world can participate in the same virtual classroom. This trend not only fosters cross-cultural understanding but also enables the sharing of diverse perspectives, enriching the overall learning experience.
Adaptive Learning Technologies
Adaptive learning technologies are designed to provide real-time adjustments to the learning process based on an individual student’s performance. These systems can identify when a student is struggling with a particular concept and provide additional resources or alternative explanations. This dynamic approach ensures that students receive the support they need exactly when they need it.
The future of online learning is bright, with numerous exciting trends poised to transform the educational industry. From personalized learning algorithms and AI tutors to VR/AR and blockchain credentialing, these innovations hold the promise of making education more accessible, engaging, and effective. As we move through 2024, it will be fascinating to see how these trends continue to evolve and shape online learning.

If you’re thinking about buying or selling a house and wondering about the real estate housing market, you’re not the only one. The housing market has seen a lot of unusual trends in the past couple of years, so it makes sense you’d want the latest market update before you make any major decisions!
Here’s the thing: housing market predictions are about as reliable as weather forecasts. The real estate professionals make their best predictions based on data, but no one can know what’s going to happen with 100% accuracy.
Still, even though it’s uncertain, you can hear what the experts are saying and make some pretty good guesses. Just remember, never let a market prediction control your housing decisions . . . only your personal situation and finances should do that!
With that said, here’s the real estate market forecast.
Key Takeaways
- Interest rates should continue to decrease in 2024.
- A housing market crash is not on the horizon.
- Housing inventory will likely still be low throughout the rest of 2024.
- If you’re financially ready to buy now, don’t wait.
Will Interest Rates Go Down in 2024?
Mortgage interest rates rose like crazy from 2021 through most of 2023, thanks to the Federal Reserve (also known as the Fed) repeatedly raising the federal funds rate. But it seems those days are over.
Interest rates dropped dramatically during the week of August 2, 2024, when the average rate for a 30-year mortgage dropped to 6.47%, and the typical 15-year rate fell to 5.63%. Rates hadn’t been that low in over a year. 1 Plus, the FED will likely cut the federal funds rate at its next meeting, which should lead to a further decrease in mortgage rates. 2
For the housing market overall, this means buyer demand should pick up throughout the rest of 2024 because more people will be able to afford a mortgage. That uptick in demand will likely lead to a price increase.
Is Now a Good Time to Buy a House?
Like I said before, the market shouldn’t determine your decision to buy a house. If you’re prepared financially, then it’s a good time to buy a home—even if inventory is limited and interest rates are high. If you’re not financially prepared, it’s not a good time, even if there’s plenty of inventory and rates are down.
You’re ready to buy a house in 2024 if (and only if) you can check off these boxes:
- You’re debt-free.
- You have an emergency fund of 3–6 months of expenses.
- Your monthly house payment will be 25% or less of your monthly take-home pay on a 15-year fixed-rate mortgage .
- You have a down payment. A 20% down payment is ideal because you’ll avoid paying private mortgage insurance (PMI) . But 5–10% is okay, too, if you’re a first-time home buyer. Just be prepared to pay PMI. And steer clear of FHA and VA loans—you’ll pay much more in fees with them.
- You can pay the closing costs up front without stealing from your down payment.
If you don’t meet these qualifications, it doesn’t matter if the market is in your favor. Buying a home would be a curse instead of a blessing. Take your time to get in a better financial position so you can buy a house the right way.
What’s the Average House Price in 2024?
The average home sales price in the U.S. is $501,700, according to the most recent numbers. But most experts report on the median, which is $412,300. 3
Find expert agents to help you buy your home.
Just so you know, the median price is right in the middle of lowest to highest prices. It’s usually better to look at the median home price than the average. That’s because a small group of super high- or low-priced houses can throw off the average and make regular homes seem more or less expensive than they really are. (Something to keep in mind as you watch the average house price fluctuate in 2024.)
Forecast: Will the Housing Market Crash in 2024?
If you’re concerned about the housing market potentially crashing in 2024, you can put those worries to rest. Prices are not going to start drastically going down anytime soon.
Home prices have dropped in 2024, but not by much. Specifically, prices have only gone down by around 3% since the end of last year. 4 Moving forward, though, that trend will likely reverse. That’s what the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation expects—they’re projecting prices to grow from now through the start of 2025. 5
The main thing to know about the current (and any) market is that home prices are determined by inventory and demand. Here’s what you can expect in each of those areas.
Housing Inventory
Housing inventory simply refers to the number of houses for sale. When fewer houses are available, buyers are willing to pay more, and sellers have more leverage to increase their asking price. So, low inventory leads to higher home prices. It’s a big reason why buying a home has gotten so expensive recently.
When it comes to housing inventory for 2024, things are looking up! July 2024 marked the ninth straight month of inventory growth. Even better news: The number of homes on the market in July 2024 was 36.6% higher than a year earlier. 6
Now, while inventory is increasing, it’s still nowhere close to pre-COVID levels. 7 So, you shouldn’t get your hopes up about seeing any kind of major price adjustment. But this is still a great sign, because it means the market is getting healthier overall.
Buyer Demand
The best way to gauge demand in the real estate market is by how many homes sell for more than their listing price. In July 2024, that number was 33%. 8
Overall, seasonal trends of buyer demand have stayed steady over the last two years. Since the middle of 2022, demand has increased during the summer and decreased during the winter. On average, demand in the real estate market hasn’t changed much in 2024.
Like we talked about earlier, though, demand should go up if interest rates continue to decrease.

What the 2024 Housing Market Means for Buyers and Sellers
Is it a buyer’s market.
In a buyer’s market, the number of homes for sale is more than the number of buyers. But since home supply is still low, it doesn’t look like there’ll be a buyer’s market anytime soon.
The good news is, the market isn’t as hot as it was in the past few years. If you’re looking to buy, you’ll have a few more options—and maybe less competition. Yes, prices are still high, but the frenzy is slowing down.
Is It a Seller’s Market?
A seller’s market is when demand for homes is higher than the supply of homes, which is still the case right now. If you’re planning to sell your house, you can expect to sell it pretty quickly and for close to your asking price—as long as your asking price is fair for the current market. (It’s easy to value your home based on happy memories and how much you loved living there, but a good agent will help you price it realistically.)
Will There Be a Lot of Foreclosures in 2024?
So far in 2024, foreclosures are slightly down. There were 177,431 foreclosures in the first half of 2024, which represented a 4.4% year-over-year decline. Compared to 2022, though, foreclosures in the first half of 2024 were up 7.8%. 9
Here’s what that means for homeowners and home buyers:
- Homeowners: Since the market isn’t going to get flooded with foreclosures, you can rest easy, knowing your home isn’t going to tank in value because of a sudden increase in home inventory.
- Home buyers: If you’re waiting to find a great deal on a foreclosure, don’t hold your breath. This market is nothing like the Great Recession. And keep in mind, buying a foreclosed home could come with its own set of potential issues. So, make sure you do your homework on the house and know what you’re getting yourself into before you buy.
How to Buy or Sell With Confidence in Any Housing Market
I know buying or selling a house is a big deal, especially after all the craziness we’ve seen in the market over the last few years, but you’ve got this!
Yes, the cost of buying a house is higher than it’s ever been before. And yes, selling a home in 2024 will come with obstacles—like higher-than-normal interest rates and high home values pricing out a lot of would-be buyers. But just because buying or selling may be more difficult now than it was a couple of years back, it’s not impossible.
You still control your financial future. That includes real estate—no matter what’s going on in the market.

Promo’s most authoritative report guides decision-making through economic challenges
“Despite formidable headwinds, the Counselor State of the Industry report identifies clear pathways to sustainable growth and profitability in a resilient U.S. economy” – Timothy M. Andrews, president and chief executive officer of ASI
The Advertising Specialty Institute ® (ASI), the foremost technology, marketing and information provider in the $26.1 billion promotional products industry, has released its latest Counselor State of the Industry report, showcasing resilience and strategic foresight among distributors and suppliers.
In a year overshadowed by economic hurdles like sluggish sales, tightened client budgets and soaring logistics costs, the industry has embraced a spirit of “cautious optimism.”
“Despite formidable headwinds, the Counselor State of the Industry report identifies clear pathways to sustainable growth and profitability in a resilient U.S. economy,” said Timothy M. Andrews , ASI president and chief executive officer. “By leveraging the insights and strategies outlined in our annual data-backed report, the industry can continue to grow stronger together.”
The 2024 research report, compiled from extensive surveys of industry members across North America, delves into critical issues facing promo companies today. The report, available at stateoftheindustry.com , also features exclusive insights on market trends, pricing strategies and international sourcing patterns essential for navigating the evolving promotional landscape.
“This year’s State of the Industry serves as both a benchmarking tool and a strategic compass,” said report author Nate Kucsma, ASI senior executive director of research. “It equips businesses with indispensable data on emerging pressures like sustainability demands and labor market dynamics, essential for informed decision-making.”
Key insights from the 2024 Counselor State of the Industry include:
- Sourcing Direct : Distributors are increasingly sourcing direct from overseas, which suppliers see as a cause for concern.
- Demonstrating ROI : Anti-swag sentiment is on the rise, but distributors can combat it with strong messaging and demonstrating value.

2023 Pet Trends for Pet Food and Pet Supply Brands
Manufacturing.
Almost every industry is going through major changes and facing pressure from inflation and consumer behavior shifts in 2023. And Pet brands are no exception. So, what are the pet trends you need to understand to stay ahead of the game?
Well, it depends on what type of products you sell. For example, the trends impacting pet food may be related to ingredients and more difficult to react to than those for pet supplies.
Keep reading to learn more about the state of the pet industry in 2023 and the pet trends that may be worth keeping an eye on going forward.
The State of the Pet Industry in 2023
2023 is a period of both growth and challenges for the Pet industry. One of the biggest factors in the state of the pet industry is price increases. Prices through 2022 climbed, lapping the price increases of 2021. While dollar sales are up, units are on the decline. In fact, the average spend per item per store per week nearly broke $20 . 1 Yet, the purchase assortment has declined to levels lower than in the last three years.
With mixed signals from the market, many emerging pet brands are struggling to make gains. Some are choosing to cut their assortments and focus on successful product offerings. Others are focusing on one channel only and eschewing an omnisales approach. But, these actions may not be based on the best information on the state of the market and how consumers are choosing to behave in an inflationary environment.
So, what does this all mean for emerging pet brands? You’ll want to take a closer look at the trends shaping the market and how you can become aligned with the future of the category. In the end, this all comes down to how well you understand the consumer and identifying the factors that affect demand in your category.

Top 5 Pet Trends for Pet Brands
As you can tell, there are both ample upsides and unique challenges facing emerging pet brands in 2023. Whether you sell pet food, supplies, treats, or something else, there are major trends likely affecting your brand. But, they aren’t all negative, so there’s still plenty of opportunity lying in wait.
With that in mind, here are the 5 top pet trends affecting pet brands across the board:
1. Price Increases
Unfortunately, no industry is immune to radical shifts in the market like inflation and consumers’ fear of an impending recession. After a 2-month period of disinflation , the average unit price for CPG products increased to 11% in January. 2 The rise in CPG prices continues to surpass (and nearly double) the CPI, causing ongoing concern over the price of necessities and an impending consumer recession. This shift is certainly making its presence known in the pet category.
For example, in 2022 pet food prices increase by an average of $0.30 . 1 This is the largest jump seen in the past five years and one that is concerning for both brands and consumers alike. As the cost per item increases, consumers are likely to cut back on their total basket, limiting pet brands’ ability to sell multiple SKUs per transaction. To conflate the issue, the lowest demographics spent +21.4% more on pet food during the same time period. As such, their ability to buy a broader variety is diminishing. 1
2. Assortment Reduction
Often going hand-in-hand with inflationary price increases, assortment reduction is a tactic many pet brands are employing to keep their margins and avoid excess inventory issues. In 2022, the total number of pet food UPCs sold dropped by 2.4% . 1 This is the first time assortment sales have dropped in the category in more than four years. As a result, pet brands are starting to question whether their full product assortment is worth keeping.
This means assortment optimization is becoming more important than ever, especially for emerging brands. This means brands need to rely heavily on data analysis and insights. Pet brands need to ensure that they have reliable data and analysis tools to make informed decisions about their product mix. Unfortunately, many brands are only seeing a part of the picture via retail sales or a third-party company. Acting on inaccurate or old data leaves brands in the dark struggling to keep pace as their competition takes more shelf space and grows.
3. Humanization of Pets
On a more positive note, more and more pet owners are treating their pets like members of the family. This has led to a greater demand for higher quality and more natural pet foods as well as more consumers seeking out toys and treats for their pets. Pet food brands are increasingly marketing their products as healthy, natural, and organic, with ingredients that are similar to what humans would eat.
This means many of the trends we’re seeing in human food are also showing up in Pet. Healthier diet alternatives, sustainable goods, and ethical sourcing are all areas where consumers are spending more money. This is an area where brands like Shameless Pets are well-positioned to align with pet owners and gain market traction going forward.
4. Omnichannel Shopping
Whether consumers are looking for pet food, supplies, toys, or treats, they’re embracing omnishopping in droves. In fact, more than one in five (22%) shoppers now plan an in-store shopping trip combined with a prior online order. 3 This means emerging pet brands have even more opportunities to connect with prospective customers across the channels.
It’s important to not that omnichannel shoppers exhibit some different behavior than their brick-and-mortar counterparts. Rather than searching by brand, omnichannel shoppers tend to search by product attribute. That is, using terms like “gluten-free”, “sustainable”, and “ethically sourced”. This means you can better align product packaging and listings by looking at the stated and qualified product attributes you use on your products.
5. Pet Ownership on the Rise
One of the best pieces of news for bet brands is that there are more Pet Care households in 2022 and the number is rising! Even better, these households are spending a greater amount on average over last year. At the end of 2022, there were more than 110 million households buying pet products with an average value per buyer of $680. 1 That’s a 10.7% increase over the previous year and rising. 1 However, it is still important to remember the role inflation and price increase play in the growth of the household’s spend. Additionally, evidence shows that the biggest driver of growth in Pet Care still comes from existing households purchasing or repurchasing for their pets.
Top 4 Pet Trends for Pet Food Brands
The Dog & Cat Food industry surpassed $47 billion across in-store and online, with continued double-digit growth trends vs. previous years. 1 But, that doesn’t mean it’s an easy path to success. There are several significant trends that are currently impacting the pet food industry and pet food brands. Overall, pet food brands that can meet the growing demand for natural, sustainable, personalized, and alternative protein sources, while also leveraging the benefits of eCommerce, are likely to be successful in the coming years.
Some of the biggest pet trends for pet food brands include:
1. Grain-Free Stagnation
For many years, we continued to see more consumers embracing grain-free pet food. But, the past three years have shown signs of consumer fatigue or disinterest in taking this route. Last year, sales of grain-free dry dog food hovered around $1.4 billion , a modest 4.5% growth YoY. 1 But, this number is still down from 2019 and the growth rate appears to be slowing. Meanwhile, grain-in dry dog food grew by more than 20% in both retail and online channels during the same time period. 1 This seems to show that more consumers are returning to grain-in pet food.
Additionally, in September of 2020, the FDA released a report on their findings which indicated that they do not officially know the connection between a “grain-free” diet and canine dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) in dogs. Until there is a clear answer to these lingering questions, pet parents are making health decisions for their pets that they would make for themselves.
2. Sustainability Mindsets
Over the past 10 years, we have seen positive consumer sentiment toward sustainability and anticipated that purchasing preferences would drive the industry toward a green revolution. But a combination of challenges has slowed progress and led to a situation where consumers and companies have not driven the change anticipated. Still, many pet owners are becoming more environmentally conscious, which has led to a demand for more sustainable pet food packaging and production practices. Brands that are incorporating sustainable practices into their production processes and packaging are gaining popularity among pet owners.
For example, Pet products identified as “certified human raised and handled” grew by 110% in sales over the last two years to account for $11 million in sales. 1 “Ethical” products grew 48% to $11.7 million, while “cruelty-free” products increased by 10% to account for $18 million in sales. 4 Clearly, many consumers are taking sustainability to heart and it’s impacting every category they shop in, including Pet.
3. Demand for Personalization
One of the biggest trends we’ve seen in online retail is a focus on personalization. But, when it comes to food, this is more than just personalized product pages or assortment offerings. Today’s consumers are looking for products that are personalized to their unique diets and health needs. Just as with human food, pet owners are increasingly seeking out customized or personalized diets for their pets. This has led to a rise in pet food brands that offer tailored diets and supplements to meet specific pet health needs.
As concerns over the environmental impact of animal agriculture continue to grow, more pet food brands are exploring alternative protein sources such as plant-based, insect-based, and lab-grown meat. This trend is likely to continue as pet owners look for more sustainable and ethical protein sources for their pets. Understanding how human food trends have impacted pet food search terms can help you build a better future for your brand and assortment.
4. The Rise of eCommerce
The growth of eCommerce has played a major role in CPG over the past few years. In fact, eCommerce spending is expected to reach $36 billion in 2023 — a 20% projected increase from 2022. 5 This impact is no different for the pet food industry, with more pet owners choosing to buy pet food online. This has led to a rise in direct-to-consumer pet food brands, which can offer a wider range of products and faster shipping times. While in-store sales are still providing the bulk of dollars, online sales are growing at a faster pace across wet and dry food and treats.
However, there is another major reason to keep an eye on online. While the majority of Pet Food dollars are still coming through brick-and-mortar locations, online sales are driving the emerging trends. If you’re looking to get in on emerging trends early, online sales can help identify the future of Pet. Once you’ve discovered how to adapt to online retail trends , you can start reaching new customers and build a presence across channels.
