Author: Kate Worlock, Director & Lead Analyst

Governments around the world are increasingly recognizing online distance learning for the benefits it can provide both to learners via its flexibility and to institutions and businesses with its ability to access new markets and deliver cost-effective education and training.
Delivering accredited and high quality education in an interactive online environment is becoming an increasingly important option for educational institutions and providers to offer and for students and professional learners to tap into. This report examines the changing size and shape of the almost $36 billion market for online distance learning (ODL) in three segments: K-12, higher education, and professional training; offers case studies demonstrating best practice in this area; and discusses the implications of the development of this market for providers of content solutions and services. This report includes:
- A definition of the market and its structure;
- A closer look at the worldwide distance learning market by student type, region, and content;
- Case studies of three ODL providers for K-12 and four for higher education;
- Essential actions for education companies wishing to excel in this market.
