The newsletter discusses the growth of online education and marketing analytics. It notes that the global eLearning market is expected to grow from $35.6 billion in 2011 to $51.5 billion in 2016. Drivers of this growth include budget constraints, the need to train dispersed workforces quickly, and changing demographics. Marketing analytics is also in high demand as it allows companies to improve marketing ROI through data-driven decision making.

2. Dear Reader,
2014-15 was a Rubicon moment for Imarticus Learning as we
set out to strengthen our product and regional portfolio as well
as our corporate relationships. Looking back, we have achieved
more than we aimed for. Our revenues have doubled, both on
the back of a thriving retail business, which saw a 120%
increase in our student base, as well as our Corporate Training
business which saw us build mutually beneficial relationships
with many of you. I thank you for continuing to believe in us, as
well as our exceptionally talented team of over 100
professionals who make it possible.
Human capital will only get you so far. This is where venture
capital comes in to ignite and sustain startups with a pipe
dream. You only have to scan the headlines of any newspaper to
see that venture capital is exploding in India whether it is Tiger
Global Management’s $85 million dollar investment in
Delhivery, the logistics company or the mushrooming of e-
commerce entrepreneurs and venture capital firms. But it takes
more than just a few deals to re-create Silicon Valley and I
explore the key cultural trends that are driving this renewed
confidence in Venture Capital.
The next notch on our goal post is Online Education and in this
issue, Amit Ratanpal tackles the growing space of Online
Education and e-learning. Globally, e-learning is a $56.2 billion
business and that figure is expected to grow exponentially to
$107 billion by 2015. With good reason: e-Learning offers cost
savings, flexibility and repeatability in training and is less
disruptive to corporate culture than classroom training. In this
issue, we explore the learning options you can now add to your
arsenal to train your employees. We are, of course, excited
about the launch of our first online program on Capital Markets
in June, 2015, with many more in the pipeline.
Apart from Training, Imarticus also provides a range of
Corporate Solutions designed to assist firms in meeting its
skillset requirements. A case study showcases how we put in
place the Sourcing to Placement model, a pioneering step in the
professional education space, to source, train and onboard
relationship managers at a leading Indian commercial bank.
We are very excited about what 2015-2016 will entail and, as
always, I look forward to hearing from you and hosting you at
our offices in Mumbai, Bangalore and Chennai. Please do get in
touch with us at corporaterelations@imarticus.com for any
requirements or suggestions to serve you better.

3. UNRAVELLING
THE VENTURE
CAPITAL
BOOM As I write this, the Sensex crashed 723 points on the back of sustained
FII outflows, lackluster industrial production numbers, worries about a
delayed monsoon, and an underperforming and straitjacketed
government. This is not due to Incredible India. So how has this come
about? Is it hype or is our newfound love for start-ups here to stay?
One big movement we have seen is the reach for scale. E-commerce
firms are no longer the niche players catering to your disposable
income. They want the share of your wallet that you spend on groceries
(Bigbasket.com) and basic furniture (Urbanladder, Fabfurnish). That
doesn’t mean niche players don’t exist but they need to ensure that the
market is big enough and the value proposition, solid.
Much of the success of Silicon Valley has been attributed to its
ecosystem, a culture that fosters innovation. It’s like a little village
where those who create, those who manage, and those who fund the
creative process live together in a community focused solely on
innovation. While we are yet to find our own little haven, some
characteristics of that ecosystem have undoubtedly crept in. What are
these characteristics?

After constantly being piped against China and
always losing, it’s nice to be ahead of them for a
change. Latest figures report that India has
outpaced China in the number of deals struck by
venture capital (VC) funds in the first quarter of
2015. 69 vs. 66 is small, but we haven’t had much
to write home about in a while.
We still lag behind in value, but raising over a billion dollars in three
consecutive quarters is no small feat —it’s more than a 200% gain
over the previous year.

THE PERMISSION TO FAIL:
The first and most important one is the
permission to fail. The natural state of the
start up is to die yet death is not looked down
upon and failure is not discouraged. Today a
number of Indian start-ups have failed. E-
commerce websites shut daily, opening up
again in six months time using a new avatar,
better and stronger using their prior
experience to build a stronger firm.

Indian business has for most part always cared
about the bottom line. Firms have repeatedly
forgone growth in sales for better margins but this
changed when Flipkart realized the only way an E-
commerce logistics company would ever get big
was to pump money in and gain value-conscious
customers and sales through deep discounting.Pumping

Contd.
Valuations have a big role to play in this as well. Between 1997
and 2008, India was ripe for private equity growth capital and
firms invested in companies on the basis of profitability
multiples that would ensure an exit. VC firms care about scale
and the next round and the inevitable IPO that will make
millionaires. The multiples in vogue now are revenue multiples
and making losses just means you’re willing to do what it takes
to be the last one standing.
MONEY:
Earlier entrepreneurs were poor and the salaries they offered
were poorer. Today’s news reported that Delhivery has just
raised close to $85 million in a new round of funding led by
venture capital firm Tiger Global Management Llc. They brought
on board former FedEx Corp. executive Suraju Dutta and Bain
and Co.’s Sandeep Barasia as managing directors. Working for a
start up doesn’t mean foregoing your salary and owning a start
up doesn’t mean you can pay peanuts; money buys talent.
Consequently MBA students from the best schools are making a
beeline for ecommerce.
Average
Startup
Salary:
16-20 Lacs
One in every nine students from the 2013-15
batch across 11 of India's top B-schools will
join an e-commerce firm or startup after they
graduate as compared to just one in 19
students in the 2012-14 batch. Salaries
offered by startups have increased two fold in
the last couple of years, with average salaries
in startups ranging from 16-20 lacs.
NETWORKING VS. ‘CONTACT’:
The era of pre-existing connections is coming to an end and
rightly so. There is no old boy school network here; there’s just a
‘I have an idea’ network. Have something interesting to say? Well
then you just have to find the right person who wants to hear it
and, hopefully, pay you some money for it. Networks like Venture
Nursery, Mumbai Angels and the India Angels Network foster
conversation and have been created by venture capital firms,
entrepreneurs, dealmakers and founders to meet a growing need.
Today’s India, be it Mumbai or Bangalore, is teeming with VC
firms from all over the world that are willing to bring in
substantial capital. All you need a great idea and the capacity to
execute!

Global
eLearning Market
With technological barriers reducing and
priorities shifting away from traditional
classroom training, online education or
eLearning has become an accepted
training medium across the world. There
seems to be universal agreement that the
worldwide E-Learning market will show
fast and significant growth over the next
three years.
Corporate
Training:
$ 200 Bln
a Year
The Corporate-training market, among the
most cyclical within the education industry,
is a $200 billion a year industry, of which
$56.2 billion is attributed to eLearning4.
Since 1995, the percentage of US
corporations using eLearning has grown
from 4% to 77% in 20114.
We are already seeing a drastic shift in learning delivery in the
corporate training market. While roughly 45%5 of all corporate
training is still conducted using instructor led classroom training,
we can see a drastic increase in the incorporation of eLearning in
its various forms into the corporate training calendar.
6. MAKING THE
CASE FOR
ONLINE
EDUCATION
The business case for eLearning gets stronger in direct proportion
to the number of employees to be trained.

REASONS FOR GROWTH
General L&D budget constraints appear to be the main drivers of the
shift towards using eLearning. However, eLearning is not merely an
attractive proposition during an economic downturn. It is also an
efficient and cost-effective solution when employees—especially
those in organizations with a geographically dispersed workforce—
need to be brought up-to-speed quickly on relevant knowledge and
skills. When used right, eLearning can used to drive competitive
advantage, increase revenues and capitalize on new market
opportunities.

“
Self-paced eLearning allows learners to assimilate content at their
own speed — often 20% to 50% faster than in a classroom.
Elearning also offers the benefits of flexibility (24/7 learning) and is
less disruptive to normal operations of a company than traditional
classroom trainings that block many hours of employee’s time at a
stretch.
ELearning also ensures consistency and
repeatability in training delivered, thereby
ensuring your learning objectives for your
trainees and the resultant outcomes are more
likely to be met. According to a report released
by IBM, companies who utilize e-Learning tools
and strategies have the potential to boost
productivity by up to 50%. For every $1 that
the company spends, it's estimated that they
can receive $30 worth of productivity6.
$1 Spent on
eLearning
$30 worth of
productivity
Finally, we have shifts in demographics which impacts the way
training is delivered. The work force is now seeing the integration of
technologically savvy Generation Y or Millennials; who by 2025, will
make up 75% of the global workforce4. To cater to this target
audience (with Baby Boomers fast catching up – Boomers are the
second highest users of the Internet7), we see a rise in demand for
interactive eLearning – be it games, simulations, videos etc.
Other drivers of growth for e-learning in India include the large base
of English language speakers as well as the acute shortage of brick-
and-mortar educational institutions for higher education, which are
largely responsible for the massive uptake in online learning
through MOOCs (Massive Open Online Course) internationally.

7. MAKING THE
CASE FOR
ONLINE
EDUCATION
ONLINE EDUCATION 2.0
Online training today has moved beyond traditional, self-paced
eLearning modules known as web based learning (WBTs) that
focused more on learner “seat time” – the time spent by the learner
to read through the WBT. Today, seat time matters very little and
instead the focus is on proficiency based learning that delivers
performance on the job.
Online education today encompasses not only the traditional WBT
model, but also includes newer learning paradigms such as Flipped
Class Model. Due to changing demographics, we see a dramatic rise
in demand for video-based learning, gamification, simulations,
mobile learning, and social or collaborative learning.
FLIPPED CLASS MODEL:
Educators increasingly look to the Flipped Class Model to deliver
learning that is effective and cost-efficient. The Flipped Class Model
essentially reverses the traditional classroom setup and redefines
seat time. Knowledge is imparted as homework while class time is
utilized for application of knowledge learnt. Learners view short
video lectures or have access to lecture content at home before they
arrive in class; while class time is used for discussions, exercises
and projects. The results, as tested on a batch of high school
students, can be quite astonishing!
Contd.
LEARNING NUGGETS:
One size
does not fit
all!
ELearning is not “One size fits all” – Adult
learners need to be put in the driver’s seat and
control what they learn and how they learn.
Accordingly, trainings need to have
personalized, competency-based learning paths
that give the learner much needed flexibility.
Shorter attention spans also mean learning is
compressed into bite-sized nuggets of shorter
duration for easier consumption.
BY 2025,
TECHNOLOGICALLY
SAVVY
GENERATION Y
WILL MAKE UP
75% OF THE
GLOBAL
WORKFORCE.
”
“
GAME BASED LEARNING:
Game-based training solutions have become popular in
organizations on both a stand-alone basis and as part of a blended
learning strategy. It is particularly useful to equip staff with
knowledge and skills related to functions such as human resources
management, marketing, customer relationship, etc.
8. MAKING THE
CASE FOR
ONLINE
EDUCATION
VIDEO BASED LEARNING:
Contd.
BUSINESS SIMULATIONS:
Working professionals need learning that is immediate,
relevant, and contextual. Business simulations fill this gap by
focusing more on application of knowledge. Simulations are
complex training interventions that simulate, or mock up, real
business scenarios or issues to promote strategic thinking,
decision making, and problem solving. For instance, a role-play
sales encounter with customers is the perfect training ground
for your sales executives before they pitch to real clients.
A MIX OF ONLINE AND CLASSROOM TRAINING
4500+ Video
Lessons on
Khan Academy
With broadband availability no
longer a constraint, videos are an
excellent way to impart learning in a
more dynamic fashion. Studies have
shown that video-based learning can
be a more effective medium than text
to enhance learner satisfaction and
motivation during the learning
process6.
THERE IS ALSO
THE REALIZATION
THAT ONLINE
LEARNING DOES
NOT ALWAYS
REPLACE
TRADITIONAL
CLASSROOM
TRAINING SETUPS. ”
“
The Best of
Both
Worlds
There is no doubt that online learning does
not always replace traditional classroom
training setups. But it is an excellent way to
complement your classroom training –this is
where blended learning comes in.
Blended learning, also called Hybrid learning, mixes emerging
technologies with classroom or instructor-led training based on
what’s most appropriate for particular content.
For example, a WBT can be used as a precursor to classroom
training for familiarization with subject matter, and also as a
refresher many months after the classroom training. A leadership
course might start with a self-paced eLearning module on
leadership basics with some instructor-led virtual classroom
sessions to discuss concepts, followed by a two-day classroom
session to practice leadership skill scenarios and get feedback.
ONLINE EDUCATION FOR THE FINANCIAL SERVICES SECTOR
Since the arrival of e-learning in the mid-1990s, the majority of
Financial Services organizations have implemented some sort of e-
learning solution although the range of what this encompasses
varies widely. Many have simply implemented point solutions
while others have rolled out e-learning to multiple areas of the
organization.
9. The training requirements in the financial services sector are
particularly gruelling. Organizations must typically deal with
geographically dispersed staff and rapidly changing knowledge
requirements as well as heavy regulatory and legal compliance
obligations.
The current speed of change means that employees need to be
trained constantly in order for companies to avoid the dangers
of being out-thought and out-maneuvered by competitors.

Online learning, particularly as a stand-alone
learning strategy, works best when the training
need is to impart knowledge on processes or
standards or to disseminate information
widely and quickly.
When
Online is
Best?
AML/KYC, Legal Compliance and Regulations training are prime
candidates for WBT-based eLearning in the Financial Services
sector. Process-driven curriculum such as that of a Trade Life
Cycle would benefit from more complex interventions such as
Simulations.
On the other hand, some trainings are not suited for eLearning
and will require human intervention – for example, Soft Skills
training or those requiring live demonstrations or group
interaction.
It is therefore vital that we evaluate the training need and the
target audience before zeroing in on the medium of training
delivery. An imperative question one needs to ask is,
“Which is the correct mode of training to promote an
effective solution for a specific training requirement?”
Knowing your available options and analyzing suitable
solutions for a learning need will help in delivering cost-
effective, goal-oriented and skill-enhancing learning solutions.
