This opens up multiple revenue streams and collaboration opportunities.

While regular classroom courses have a fixed timeline to be followed for best results the same is not true for online learning. A user can study at will, take certification exams whenever they’re ready, and design their learning path as per their schedule and other commitments. More flexibility results in better learning outcomes.
