Market outlook for international education
Indonesia has a growing labour force of more than 135 million people. Fuelling demand for education and training services that cannot be met by domestic institutions. There is also a specific need for in-market English-based training.

The scale of the required skills training in Indonesia is so in demand that organisations offer train-the-trainer and online course options. EdTech will play a key role in supporting the future operation of Indonesia’s education sector. Offering significant opportunities for Western Australian EdTech businesses.
