HolonIQ’s Higher Education Digital Transformation Webinar Series
Digital Capability in Higher Education. Initial Global Insights
312 University Leaders and Industry Executives from 30 countries shared their initial insights about digital capability in higher education, painting a global picture of current performance, gaps and priorities.
770 Universities. 200 OPMs, Bootcamps and Pathways.
Thirty plus years of public-private partnerships are the foundation of a broad University partnership ecosystem supporting institutional objectives and innovation of the higher education model.
79% Growth in OPM+ Partnerships. 1000+ University Partnerships Since 2000.
2020 will see almost 300 new University-OPX Partnerships, almost doubling the 2019 numbers as higher education accelerates its move to online learning, bringing the total number of partnerships today to over 1,000.
2.5x Global MOOC Web Traffic
MOOC’s digital reach just grew 2.5x, up 300 million monthly visits globally, as isolated learners seek immediate solutions to their knowledge and skills needs amid a rapidly-evolving work landscape.
Education Publishing and the $140B Digital Disruption
The $140B global publishing industry has been navigating digital disruption for at least two decades. EdTech’s $160B+ market today will more than double by 2025, dwarfing the publishing market at large.
$74B Online Degree Market in 2025, up from $36B in 2019.
Pre COVID-19, the online degree market was one of the fastest-growing segments of global higher education. A $74B Online Degree Market in 2025 sounds like a lot, but not compared to Global Higher Education, today a $2.2T global industry. Online Degrees would still represent less than 4% of the Global Higher Education Market at these levels.
OPX capability assessment identifies emerging combinations.
