Trajectory (calculated by the portal)

Modules

Slower than needed

Slower than needed: recent pace 2021-2024: (56 - 0) / 3 = 18.7 a year; needed pace to 2030: (180 - 56) / 6 = 20.7 a year; compound growth: recent n/a, needed +21.5% a year. Portal calculation, not the SAB assessment.

At the recent linear pace the value would be about 168 in 2030.

Validated modules

On pace

On pace: recent pace 2021-2024: (32 - 0) / 3 = 10.7 a year; needed pace to 2030: (90 - 32) / 6 = 9.7 a year; compound growth: recent n/a, needed +18.8% a year. Portal calculation, not the SAB assessment.

At the recent linear pace the value would be about 96 in 2030.

The booklet rates each indicator on its own four-level scale (ahead of schedule, on schedule, needs progress, behind schedule); that assessment is not reproduced here.

How it is calculated

Entries of the course directory, with free online courses, certificates and schools as the headline because they are closest to open modules; master's programmes and the other entries are shown apart.

Coverage: The source-verified course directory.

Limitations:

  • Courses and degrees, not curated and validated open-source modules of the Flagship repository.
  • The directory has no history, so there is no yearly series.
