The Market Opportunity Corporate Market Indicators IDC predicts E-Learning to grow from 1 billion in revenue to 12 billion in revenue by 2003 ASTD predicts 77% of corporations will use their Intranet for training by 2003 Gartner Group predicts that ½ of all training will be delivered by e-learning by 2003 Piper Jaffrey predicts 50 billion pounds will be spent on e-learning by 2005 e-learning is one of the fastest growing market segment in education. The online training market is expected to nearly double in size every year through 2003, reaching approximately $11.5 billion by that time (IDC). e-Learning provides students with better retention and understanding of content, leading to a 60% faster learning curve, compared to instructor-led training. Whereas the average content retention rate for an instructor-led class is only 58%, the more intensive e-learning experience the more the student retains information. (WR Hambrech Report) Education Market Indicators According to IDC, approximately 85% of the universities and colleges in the United Kingdom will offer online education to their students by 2003. The annual growth rate is expected to reach over 30%. Next to the healthcare industry, education is the second largest industry, with an annual market currently at over 1 billion dollars. IDC predicts the education industry will exceed 7 billion dollars in revenue by 2002. Piper Jaffrey has projected even larger market growth indicators for education; according to Jaffrey this industry is expected to spend 50 billion pounds by 2005. With these indicators and supporting estimations by industry analyst and market leaders, WebLearning Network is well positioned to take advantage of the e-Learning phenomena, and help you claim a leadership role. Infrastructure Deploy It -Rapidly- by Outsourcing Many colleges and lines-of-business have short term training needs that must be rolled out immediately. Often the subject matter may exist, but there is no readily available way to deliver the training without flying the audience into a central classroom location. Customers would like to "rent" a learning delivery capability that would enable them to conduct "virtual classroom" sessions and distribute self-study learning quickly, through the Internet to a common desktop browser. They require a secure, affordable, easy to learn, and flexible environment to solve an immediate and critical training need. WLN - Rapid Deployment Services Rapid Deployment Services delivers a short duration (90 days) hosted e-learning environment, employing the powerful WebLearning Network (WLN) Learning Management System. The service integrates live and self-paced learning delivery, with secure and reliable 24/7 availability; help desk support, and training for key subject matter and technical staff.
