The online education industry is flourishing in India with the proliferation of virtual/ cloud-based training. The reason behind its sudden spike is the Covid-19 pandemic. Even earlier, people showed an interest in online education, but not as much as they do now. As education institutes remained closed for a long time during the Covid lockdown, it looks like even if the routine gets back, the trend and adoption of online education will prevail in the modern world. Online education has its own set of lenient features like learning any time at the student's comfort, and relief from high amounts spent on fees spent on classrooms and hostels.
Online education allows learning to be something beyond the norm. Ultimately, online education leverages students to access unlimited topics and global experts in niche subjects, something otherwise not affordable or imaginable for many. The Indian government is showing interest in developing online education. The New Education Policy (NEP) 2020 released by the Education Ministry has emphasized on the growing need for online education in India. The policy is designed to maximize the benefits of digital and online education in India while mitigating the downsides. The education policy also promotes initiatives consisting of pilot studies and the installation of virtual labs. The policy is aimed to transform the education standards of India by the end of 2040.
Big data is a vast field. The industry keeps growing big as humans generate at least 2.5 quintillion bytes of data every day. The functionalities around the data are also increasing, opening a wide range of education-related possibilities in big data. In India, online education platforms like Edureka, Simplilearn, Udemy, upGrad, Coursera, and others are merging with leading Indian and international institutions in availing big data online education. However, it is a diverse platform where courses range from simple 10-day basics to a Master's in big data. The entry for such online courses is easy compared to other college courses. Most of the programs ask students to join classes right away, while only a few conduct preliminary online tests. Some online courses even provide career opportunities by partnering with big entities.
