India Ed-Tech Driven Career Programs Market Overview and Size:

The market was observed in its growth stage majorly due to the fact that India has a large working population which is leading the demand for up-skilling & re-skilling programs provided by Ed-tech companies. Also, minimal restrictions on competitive entry allow the entry / presence of numerous players operating on a SPOC model therefore, catering to working professionals, primarily. Government initiatives aimed at increasing the Gross Enrollment Ratio have also played a major role in increasing the adoption for online skilling and vocational training programs. For instance, the government allocated around INR 17,000 crores towards skill based development and employment generation in India.

India Ed-Tech Driven Career Programs Market Segmentation

By Type of Course (SPOC and MOOC): SPOC programs wre witnessed to maintain a higher share, due to higher program cost in comparison to MOOCs. However, MOOCs led the way in terms of enrollments and learners due to the virtually unrestricted access provided to MOOCs and the low fees associated with such programs.

Competitive Landscape of Major Players Operating in the India Ed-Tech Driven Career Programs Market:

Competition stage within the Indian Ed-Tech market was observed to be highly fragmented with presence of major players such as upGrad, Talentedge, SimpliLearn, Talent Sprint, Great Learning, Edureka, NIIT and others in the SPOC segment and Courser, edX, Udemy and Udacity in the MOOC segment who captured a substantial share in terms of student enrolment in 2018-2019. Ed-Tech companies in India were observed to compete on the basis of course quality, program delivery modes, doubt clearance, instructor experience, pricing, student support & tech interface.

India Ed-Tech Driven Career Programs Market Future Outlook & Projections:

The market is expected to grow at a high rate in future, with working professionals turning to Ed-tech powered up-skilling as well as re-skilling programs in order to learn on-the-go. Also, high job change rates, lay-off rates, risk of getting unemployed by developing technologies and lack of workplace learning opportunities will heighten adoption of uptake of Ed-tech powered online programs. Moreover, the graduate & college segment is predicted to surge in the future due to favorable government judgments and the need for placement focused programs for college students.
