Adult education is changing, and technology is leading the direction of change. The higher education industry are having to keep up with those needs by coming up with new educational tools, facilities and approaches to learning.
In light of this, more and more higher education providers are using online educational tools and are providing online accredited education right up to post-graduate level.
Another trend relates to the focus of education moving from academic attainment to practical hands on experience. There is now a growing demand for educational delivery that is merged with practical industry experience. These changes present great opportunities especially for Africa.

The global market can now take advantage of these changes and Africa, having one of the largest growing economies in the world is in a great position to leverage these changes.

The world is waiting for Africa to utilise innovation for progress and to ‘step up’ to their global
responsibilities, in order to implement positive change that could potentially impact the world.
