Mobile Learning Technologies are Growing at a Fast Pace
The mobile learning technology has witnessed faster adoption in the eLearning market with the increased use of smartphones. Many application-based knowledge platforms are being developed which allow smartphone users to gain insights into any topic in real-time. Some educational institutes and universities develop their own mobile-based applications that allow the students to log in to the student portal and get access to the missed lectures. A few prominent mobile applications currently in use in the corporate sectors are Udemy, Skill Pill, DesignJot, and BoostHQ. Furthermore, the developers in the market also offer a game-based application platform that is used for teaching children with the help of interactive animated videos and pictures. These technologies enable schools to enhance the logical & reasoning skills and IQ of their students.
North America Holds the Largest Share across the Globe
The North America eLearning market accounts for nearly 40% of the industry share and is growing rapidly due to the fast-technological adoption by numerous organizations to provide effective training to its employees. The corporate sectors are effectively engaged in the enhancement of their employee training programs which results in higher employee productivity. The larger organizations are increasingly incorporating software-based technologies to monitor and analyze the daily or weekly performance of their staff. Certain small companies are presently finding it difficult to incorporate these high-cost solutions in their enterprises. Such factors have encouraged service providers to offer LMS hosted services to these SMBs. This is allowing companies to either host these solutions in their organizations' servers or use Software as a Service (SaaS) hosting. Furthermore, content developers in the region offer training modules with a higher degree of customization, engagement levels, and content quality, driving competition in the eLearning market.
