CHLOE 10 | Meeting the Moment: Navigating Growth, Competition, and AI in Oline Higher Education

Every year, Quality Matters and EDUCAUSE collaborate on a survey and research report called The Changing Landscape of Online Education (CHLOE). Some key findings in the latest report released in August 2025:

  1. Online demand is growing, but so is competition. Institutions with high-quality design, flexible delivery, and differentiated offerings, like YourPace, are the ones who are thriving.
  2. Only 28% of institutions rate their faculty as fully prepared for online course design. How would you rate UMPI faculty?
  3. AI is being used by many institutions to support course development, workload efficiency, and accessibility, but there are still many concerns.

The report concludes that “online success will depend on clear strategy, cross-campus collaboration, and a sustained commitment to quality”.
