2022. Funding is expected to be particularly strong in the U.S., Europe,
and India.

addition, the report predicts that schools will require technology to
meet learning outcomes in students, address faculty and teacher
well-being, and solve retention challenges.

Holon poll, 67% of respondents perceived the greatest development
prospects rising from tutoring and test prep, followed by language
learning and personnel management, as confirmed by 60% and 50% of
respondents, respectively.
