The training industry in North America includes both internal and external resources that are employed by key players to train their staff on specific and required skills needed to perform their jobs. The primary factor that is driving demand in the U.S. education LMS sector is the increasing number of universities that offer online education, which in turn is facilitating growth of the training market in the region. However, challenges with proper implementation of learning management systems faced by educational institutions due to budget constraints and lack of expertise, are expected to hamper growth of the market.

Increasing demand for continuous learning in Europe is expected to result in high adoption of different training and learning methodologies and products. The training market in Europe is expected to exhibit steady growth, owing to significant revenue contributed by countries such as, Germany, U.K., and France over the forecast period.

The training market in Latin America is expected to witness significant growth in the near future. This growth is majorly attributed to evolution of digitized corporate training in the region that is rapidly replacing conventional training methods.
