Investigating an Alternative Marketplace
ALTERNATIVE APPROACHES to THE GLOBAL MARKETPLACE
RE: NEPAL — SCHOOL SECTOR REFORM PROGRAM (SSRP)
(From the World Bank)
Project ID: P113441/Project Status: Active (2009)
FACE 1: MARKET FOCUS
SSRP is intended to increase access to school education and to improve the quality of school education.
FACE 2: TYPES OF OFFERINGS
The SSRP project is divided into two parts: basic education and secondary education. First, SSRP is intended to ensure equitable access to and quality of basic education for all children ages 5-12 as well as to prepare pre-school-age children through Early Childhood Education and Development (ECED) for basic education and deliver basic numeracy and literacy to youths and to adults, especially women and marginalized groups. Second, SSRP is intended to improve equitable access to secondary education by financing the development of physical facilities (i.e. classroom construction and rehabilitation, library and laboratory construction, and school construction for children with special needs) and provide scholarships for marginalized groups, the disabled, girls, and children from poor households.
FACE 3: THE BUYER
Learning bought nationally – open to regions – local guide offers via the World Bank
FACE 4: GLOBAL MARKETS
A region with no, restricted, or poor quality Internet service
FACE 5: DEVELOPMENT OF THE MARKET
Market does not seem to support E-learning/learning technologies
FACE 6: LEARNING TECHNOLOGY COMPETITION WITH OTHER FORMS OF LEARNING
Not yet applicable
CONCLUSION
As an educational venture analyst (EVA), there may be a business opportunity present in this project, for there is no infrastructure (i.e. LMS, CMS, virtual classrooms), no market development around E-learning, and no E-learning system.
