B2B

Education

The education industry spans private and private sector brick & mortar entities as well as the fast-growing online e-learning segment that includes non-profit/for-profit courses that result in a certificate/degree and massive open online courses or MOOCs, and corporate training.

The global education market is worth $6.5 trillion and it is expected to reach $10 trillion by 2030.

In higher education, a demand for better return on investment is changing the way students and potential students in both developed and developing countries view available educational options- by institution, by country, by mode.

Tutoring and testing services providers benefit from the divergent trends of educational system inadequacies and the need to secure a place in the best schools by delivering superior test scores. Alone, the education technology industry is valued at $254 billion, and it is expected to reach $605 billion by 2027.

Greater use and acceptance of eLearning in corporate training is a clear trend. English language skills, IT skills, and sales and safety training drive the business learning market globally.
