Growing technological advancements
Technological advancements such as AR & VR devices, AI platforms, big data, and machine learning provide a great opportunity for the growth of the e-learning service market during the next five years. These technologies are helping companies to share and deliver education-based content in innovative and interactive ways.
Internet Penetration
The increasing penetration of the internet worldwide is also contributing to the growth of the e-learning service market as more people are using the internet for educating themselves and learning new skills. According to the World Bank data, the penetration of the internet has grown double-fold in a decade, from 22.96% of individuals using the internet in 2008 to 49.72% of individuals using the internet in 2017. The proliferation of smartphones combined with rising internet connectivity is thus, bolstering the growth of the e-learning service market.
Asynchronous learning holds a significant market share
The market for asynchronous e-learning holds a significant share of the global e-learning service market. Asynchronous learning is more popular as compared to synchronous learning. This is because the former provides flexibility and pacing along with affordability. Asynchronous learning means studying a course by using reading materials, viewing lectures, and completing assignments, and exams for evaluation within a flexible time frame. However, the synchronous learning service market is poised to grow at a significant CAGR during the forecast period. This type of e-learning service is offered in real-time and includes video conferencing, teleconferencing, live chat, and live-streaming lectures. It happens in a specific virtual place, through a specific online medium, and at a specific time.

The corporate segment will witness market growth at a significant CAGR during the forecast period. Companies are increasingly investing in e-learning services for training employees in order to enhance their skill-based proficiency and improve their performance. Corporates are trying to opt for courses that help learners grow their aptitude and improve their career prospects. People who are employed can study online after working hours and can get quality education from leading professionals and highly qualified professors from renowned universities without even attending B-schools. Corporates are implementing e-learning for employees for talent enhancement and employee retention, thus bolstering the market growth of e-learning services across this sector.
The academic segment holds significant market share due to continuously rising tuition fees and the ever-increasing expenses of higher education. People are opting for E-learning as it provides a degree and certification course. Moreover, the emerging popularity of distance education is further fueling the demand for e-learning services across this sector, thus positively impacting the market growth.
North America is anticipated to hold a significant market share in the projected period.
Regionally, the global e-Learning service market is classified into North America, South America, Europe, the Middle East, Africa, and the Asia Pacific. North America accounted for a significant market share in 2020 owing to the continuous rise in tuition fees in countries like the U.S. and Canada. Moreover, high awareness about the benefits of e-learning services further supports the market growth of e-learning services in the region.
The Asia Pacific region will witness a decent market growth rate owing to urbanization and an increase in disposable income. People are becoming more aware of the advantages and benefits of e-learning and want to learn new skills and improve their aptitude for better job opportunities. This will drive the e-learning service market in the Asia Pacific region.
