The Education industry is evolving with new technology, globalization, and the rapidly changing needs for emerging skills.
Some of the major Ivy League universities have gone global by setting up their campuses in different countries. India announced opening its education industry for foreign universities. Countries such as China, the United Arab Emirates, Qatar and beyond have sought to attract major universities and help them incubate talent.
This integration in the global education sector has been going on for quite some time. Initially, universities offered a number of student exchange programs and affiliation with local universities of developing economies to improve their level of education and human capital formation. Some higher-ranked universities also offered faculty training programs for other universities. Universities now build campuses abroad.
Die Expansion ins Ausland ist nicht ohne Risiko.
Michigan State University shut down its Dubai campus recently due to a lack of students.
Foreign universities can face challenges such as reduced demand, price sensitivity to tuition fees and expenses, logistical hurdles and competition with local educational institutes. Further competition with online institutions provides further competitive pressure as online offerings become increasingly sophisticated.
Some institutions are now dependent on foreign students, which can raise strategic questions for organizations. In countries like Australia and the United States, public debates have emerged about foreign students studying in their countries and Affirmative Action.
Bildungsdienste entwickeln sich online weiter
The rise in online courses can spark a decline in traditional campuses. Online degrees could be a potential source of opportunity allowing some to go global without having physical campuses, and could provide other benefits to students such as convenience. Online learning also can provide students with more options to select from at potentially lower fees. Other substitutes to traditional higher learning programs include professional certification programs.
Die Lernmethoden im Klassenzimmer entwickeln sich derzeit rasant weiter und werden produktiver und interaktiver. Der Einsatz neuer Technologien und Lernmanagementsysteme (LMS) bei der Durchführung von Vorlesungen sorgt zunehmend für ein interaktiveres Erlebnis.
Marktforschung deckt Chancen und Herausforderungen auf
Executive Education and Corporate Training programs are major opportunities for Education institutions. Technology adoption and training programs are also other ways for universities to become more attractive and competitive.
Eine Herausforderung, die die Bildungsbranche auch heute noch betrifft, ist der Mangel an effektiver Marketingkommunikation. Die Kommunikation mit Studenten über relevante Bildungsprogramme erfolgt zunehmend online.
Während die Bildungsbranche heute aufgrund der Globalisierung mit rasanten Strukturveränderungen konfrontiert ist, ist eine effektive Anpassung an diese Herausforderungen der Schlüssel zum Erfolg.
