The e-Learning market consists of three distinct categories: content, services and delivery. Content or courseware represents off-the-shelf titles that provide training on a variety of general topics and customer specific content that must be custom developed. Services represent the outsourcing of e-Learning content development, implementation or consulting to third parties and delivery refers to the technology to host, deploy, manage and track e-Learning users and content. While industry data varies, content is consistently sited as the largest segment, with services being identified as the fastest growing.
