The circumstances created during COVID-19 have unlocked numerous opportunities for the edTech industry. Due to the pandemic, the education system underwent significant disruptions. While the schools and other educational institutes shut down, the process of imparting education didn’t come to a halt.

Students and teachers shifted to remote learning platforms since everyone lost connectivity to the actual academic campus. The sudden halt in the classroom learning disrupted the entire education sector. Teachers and students fell out of touch and could not engage in an active learning process.

Established players in the edTech industry have played a huge role in coping with this issue. Amongst several digital learning platforms, EdisonLearning has emerged at the forefront. EdisonLearning provides supporting school districts with online courses and support for online learning programs.
