Overall, India’s online education market has been on a fire with nationwide lockdown shifting the academical education from offline to online. Although industry experts argue that online classes can never really substitute offline learning, they agree that online classes will still continue to grow.

Commenting on COVID19 lockdown’s positive impact on the edutech industry, Hari Krishnan Nair, Co-founder, Great Learning, said COVID19 acted as a catalyst in making continuous learning a habit among students and professionals, leading to the rapid growth of the ed-tech industry as a whole. 2021 is all set to witness a similar spike if not a drastic shift in the minds of young professionals wanting to create a great impact in what they do- apart from just working for a living.”

He further added With shortening technology cycles, stackable learning will be the future where professionals will pick up skills as per requirement at different stages of their professional life instead of trying to learn all of them together in the beginning of their careers. To power ahead in their careers, they will need to keep repeating the cycle – learn, execute, repeat.”
