The ninth Changing Landscape of Online Education survey offers a glimpse into the distance education marketplace.
Dive Brief:
Roughly two-thirds of colleges are making it a priority to create virtual versions of on-campus classes and programs, according to an annual survey of chief online learning officers.
College officials likely see creating online versions of existing programs as easier than launching entirely new academic programs, according to the report.
However, 48% of chief online learning officers still said their priorities included launching new online programs with no campus equivalent.
