    Competitive Landscape Brief

    Demand for higher education services is largely driven by population dynamics, but also by employer requirements.

Public schools have the advantage of public funding and are typically larger than private schools. Small schools can compete effectively by providing a superior education. The industry is labor-intensive: average annual revenue per worker is about $90,000.
