This can be attributed to various factors such as higher internet penetration, presence of a large number of universities offering distance learning programs, and increasing demand for online education from corporate sector employees.
Asia Pacific is anticipated to witness significant growth over the next eight years owing to several initiatives taken by governments across countries such as China and India for developing quality education programs throughdistance learning platforms at an affordable cost.

There are now a variety of online courses available at different price points, making it possible for everyone to get access to quality education regardless of their financial situation.
- Growing popularity among working professionals: One of the main reasons for the growing popularity of distance learning is its appeal among working professionals who want to continue upgrading their skills without having to sacrifice time or money.
