Online Education in China
Posted 10-07-2008 at 04:20 AM by Kerry Finch
The interest of big investors in online education has made it a new focus for investment in the China’s education industry.
Students in underdeveloped and remote parts of the country are gaining the most from online education, but in addition online universities are now offering working people and students who have failed entrance exams an opportunity of training and education. The Ministry of Education has set up 2,027 off-campus learning centers (stations) around China, offering 140 majors in 10 disciplines, and have a total enrollment of 1.467 million.
Online education has also been helped by the spread of broadband technology.
Adult education in China is both dynamic and diverse. Online self-improvement opportunities are being embraced, especially in the technology field.
As more Chinese are being educated online, their acceptance of receiving information in downloadable formats is also increased. Consulting the internet for ‘how to’ and ‘best way’ resources is increasing dramatically.
This market is ripe for the taking and online marketers should be looking closely to China for their next product launch.
