Coursera and the uncertain future of higher education - ARTHUR LEVINE, Fortune

The future of higher education is being led by a publicly traded company in California that is growing like gangbusters. Its online platform has a portfolio of thousands of courses from the world’s leading universities, corporations, and nonprofits. Coursera, which since the spring has been listed on the New York Stock Exchange, is valued at 7 billion dollars and seems to be making all the right moves. While college and university enrollments have been declining during the pandemic, Coursera's enrollment rose from 53 million to 78 million students this spring—an increase greater than total U.S. higher education enrollment.
