The Online Education industry has grown at a rapid pace. Technological advancements and faster internet speeds have allowed the online model to offer a more viable method of learning. With more individuals and businesses recognising the benefits of online education, the use of online learning has soared over the past five years.
A trend towards upskilling became particularly apparent during the global financial crisis. While Australia survived the economic downturn relatively unscathed, upskilling has established a permanent place in society.
The industry includes institutions that deliver online education to students. To be considered an online provider, over 80% of the course or unit content offered has to be delivered online. For example, students could be located off-campus for the duration of their enrolment and successfully complete a unit of study. Online education includes study at all levels of education.
