The global social and emotional learning market size was estimated at USD 3.47 billion in 2024 and is projected to reach USD 27.73 billion by 2033, growing at a CAGR of 26.2% from 2025 to 2033. Social and emotional learning is the process through which youth, children, and adults effectively acquire the attitudes, knowledge, and skills necessary to manage and understand emotions, feel and show empathy for others, make responsible decisions, achieve positive goals, and maintain positive relationships.
Social and emotional learning (SEL) is defined as the process by which individuals apply and acquire core skills in five interrelated areas namely social-awareness, self-management, self-awareness, relationship skills, and responsible decision making.
Parents provide excellent support for their children's social and emotional development. Still, a network of support for building social and emotional competencies in children must be made through coordination between school staff, families, and community resources. These skills are actively reinforced in the classroom through extracurricular activities, support services, after-school activities, and service-learning programs. SEL also improves students' social and emotional competence by fostering learning environments that are caring, safe, well-managed, cooperative, and interactive.
Social and emotional learning (SEL) adoption as part of the core curriculum is being promoted by associations and governments. In the U.S., Federal policy plays a vital role in creating conditions that promote districtwide and statewide adoption of SEL so all students could benefit. Further, the policy promotes SEL for students, supports adults' SEL capacity building and competencies, and aligned efforts that leverage community assets and school to support the social, behavioral, and emotional needs of students and families. One of the most prevalent SEL strategies entails training teachers with the ability to teach social and emotional skills explicitly, then identifying opportunities for students to practice those skills throughout the day.
Growing adoption of smart devices and increase in digitalization in the education sector accelerate market growth. With the digitization of the educational sector, social and emotional education is also playing a significant role in the modernization and reformation of the educational environment globally. Further, government initiatives to promote digital infrastructure are accountable for driving the adoption of social and emotional learning. The emergence of augmented reality, artificial intelligence, and virtual reality technologies would provide an immersive social and emotional learning experience that would keep students engaged in their studies and motivate them to learn. AI can also be implemented to build an AI-based mentor who can assist students with grasping ideas, recommend courses, and provide feedback to enhance their learning experience.
