The growth of e-learning platforms is expected to drive the expansion of the digital transformation in the EdTech market. E-learning platforms are online systems that offer courses, training, and educational content, enabling people to learn at their own pace, from any location, using the internet. The rise of these platforms is fueled by the increasing demand for flexible and accessible education, as more people opt for learning outside of traditional classrooms. This shift is making education more convenient and accessible. For example, according to Eurostat, a Luxembourg-based government agency, 30% of internet users aged 16 to 74 used an online course or learning material in January 2024, a 2% increase from 28% in 2022. As a result, the rise of e-learning platforms is significantly contributing to the growth of the digital transformation in the EdTech market.
Major companies are focusing on advancements such as artificial intelligence-powered learning solutions to improve education and accessibility. AI-powered learning tools use artificial intelligence to customize lessons, offer smart tutoring, and adapt learning based on a student's needs and progress.
