Strukturdaten Distance Learning/Distance Education 2023

In the light of rapid technological developments and a comprehensive digitalisation of society and the world of work, lifelong learning is becoming increasingly important. Non-academic and higher education courses in the form of distance learning/distance education offer an established didactic format for reconciling (continuing) education with gainful employment, family obligations or restrictions in mobility. The Federal Institute for Vocational Education and Training (BIBB) has therefore been collecting data on the development of providers, offerings and participation from the providers of corresponding educational offerings annually since 2016 - initially as part of a revision of the distance learning statistics. This publication presents the results of this year's survey "Structural Data Distance Learning/Distance Education 2023".
