E-Learning Market Segmentation

The global e-learning market research report includes a detailed segmentation by delivery mode, learning mode, function type, end-user, geography. The packaged content segment occupied around 58% of the e-learning market share in 2020. Private institutional interest toward gamification is on the rise as the vendors are trying to improve the competitive edge of their pedagogy over the conventional methods. The demand for e-learning as a packaged content increases, mainly due to the desire to acquire skills amongst corporates.

For instance, the increasing demand for skills in the tech industry such as virtual reality, artificial intelligence, and big data is propelling the adoption of this mode of delivery in the corporate e-learning market. Over the past few years, this has led several vendors to grow and expand their businesses significantly.

For instance, Pluralsight, a tech e-learning provider, is one of the fastest-growing companies in Utah. The packaged e-learning content market will continue to grow as corporates' requirement rises and needs more agility.

The self-paced segment is expected to maintain its dominance, witnessing an incremental growth of over USD 139 billion during the forecast period. Europe, Russia, and the UK have emerged as the major consumers of self-paced e-learning modes over the last decade.

The self-paced e-learning segment in countries such as Myanmar, Mongolia, Rwanda, Sri Lanka, Laos, Nepal, Cambodia, Ethiopia, Senegal, Uganda, Mauritius, Mali, Slovakia, Namibia, and Lithuania are expected to grow at a CAGR of more than 15% during the period 2020-2026. About 72.78% of adults consider themselves lifelong learners, creating tremendous growth opportunities for online education companies in the market during the forecast period.

The training segment is projected to witness an absolute growth of approximately 104% by 2026.

Training professional, governmental-related, and academic was estimated at around USD 134 billion in 2020.

The corporate segment will record an absolute growth of approximately 134% during the forecast period. As the COVID-19 pandemic caused the changes in work culture and regulations to become more widespread and permanent, learning and development specialists have taken corporate e-learning as their strategy to empower and train their employees. Players focus on deploying cost-effective, efficient, and time-saving cloud-based solutions to gain a larger share in the corporate training segment.
