Sheffield (UK), April 2010 - Last December, Learning Light, a company limited by guarantee that focuses on promoting the use of eLearning and learning technologies, published its second report into the UK's corporate eLearning industry. In the process, it updated figures for this sector that were first published in 2007. The 2009 report's principal finding is that the UK eLearning industry remains robustly positive in its view of the market and the prospect for continuing growth.
Using financial modeling and third-party research, the report suggests that the annual size of the UK eLearning industry in 2009 was between £300m and £450m, with a growth-rates forecast of between 6.7% and 8%. The figures from that report - 'The UK eLearning market 2009', available as a free download from www.eLearningcentre.co.uk or - are now in the process of being updated to reflect industry trends throughout 2010.
Consequently, the Learning Light research team of Glyn Jung, Gillian Broadhead, and David Patterson is beginning the process of information gathering and interpretation for the 2010 Report via a series of interviews with organisations engaged in the eLearning market. These will range from micro-businesses developing innovative technologies to established major service and product suppliers in the UK.
Like last year, Creativesheffield is supporting the publication of Learning Light's report on the eLearning industry in 2010.
Learning Light's David Patterson said, "If you run a company that is active in the UK eLearning industry and would like to contribute facts and opinions to the 2010 Report, please contact Learning Light as soon as possible so that we can include your company in our assessment of the UK's corporate eLearning market."
The Learning Light Report on the eLearning industry is not just the most comprehensive assessment of the UK's corporate eLearning sector; it is the only such report that has reliable, comparable figures for the industry over the last three years. As such, these series of Learning Light Reports make essential reading for all eLearning market analysts and commentators as well as would-be successful entrepreneurs in this sector.
"So we're extremely grateful to Creativesheffield for its help and support in not only enabling us to compile these reports but also for making them freely available via their website", he added.
