We’re a couple of weeks away from the end of the year. A year that has seen a massive boom in online learning – rocket-boosting the already upward trajectory in this space.
“Resulting in a 221% surge in new course creation”
People have basically been forced online and now see just how effective online learning actually is. Changing the world of education forever.
This article by Thinkific details the growth in new course creators, new student enrollment, and new courses on their platform and it’s quite a fascinating read.
- The earliest adopters were:
The Arts & Entertainment industry. With everything from marketing, photography, graphic design to weaving, painting, and hip-hop dance. - Education with courses teaching everything from macroeconomics to AP history.
- Health & Fitness with yoga instructors, pilates studios, and other health professionals all being forced to move their practices online.
These three industries also had huge jumps in student enrollment. Along with Fashion & Beauty and Career Development – they took the top 5 industry slots. But all industries showed massive growth in demand for online learning.
So not only are people offering more courses online, but there’s a massive growth in demand for these courses. And the increase in student enrollment has stayed at 200% above pre-covid figures. Which indicates that the demand for online courses is here to stay.
So what does this mean for you?
Well if you have been considering creating an online course – there is no better time. There is clearly a demand in every industry.
What you can offer as an online course?
Basically, anything that you know well enough to share with others. I mean, someone thought people would be interested in learning How to Survive a Zombie Apocalypse. And he was right, close to 5000 people were interested. So I bet you do have something to offer as an online course.
And as discussed in this blog article – the definition of an online course has changed. You no longer need to follow a cookie-cutter approach. As long as you can create learning content in an organised way that provides a transformation – you’ve got a course.
