  4. Consider a few facts…. • Over 5,000 competitors offer all types of e-learning; no single competitor has more than a 5% market share • Last year, over 100 e-learning portals entered the market • Partnerships between “non-traditional” providers and universities are increasing

  12. Adult Learners in the US • 28 million • Workforce should spend 20% of time engaged in learning • Equivalent to 30 credits every 7 years • Do we have the space? • Will they even come to campus?
