The delivery of online degree programs within higher education is continuously evolving and becoming more efficient as technological and curriculum design factors merge to enhance learning effectiveness. The advance of technology challenges the modification of learning habits of future generations; the era of sitting in front of a computer to engage stale eLearning curriculum designed for the masses has run its course. The ability to take short courses via mobile technology has made eLearning-on-the-go a reality. Virtual reality will soon usher in a new learning environment in which students will attend school. In the very near future, artificial intelligence will become the teacher’s assistant and may even replace the role of an educator as we know it today! It is important to establish a presence and build sustainable businesses that attract generations of the future.
