The demand for online education is booming right now
According to Forbes, online learning became a $100 billion per year industry in 2015, and it still shows no signs of slowing down. Millions of people are purchasing online courses, inside and outside of the traditional education system, in order to upgrade their knowledge and skills.
It comes as no surprise that in response to this demand, entrepreneurs and industry experts from all over the world have started creating and selling online courses to share their knowledge with others.
At Thinkific, we’ve felt the effects of this demand first hand as thousands of individuals and organizations have started using our platform to create their online courses.
Many of our customers are established organizations and entrepreneurs. For them, creating and selling online courses is a viable way to create an additional source of revenue for their business. We also have several organizations (like Hootsuite, for example) creating free courses to provide training to their customers, and in other cases, to their employees.
