Medical Education Industry Report by Regional Category Spend, Price Analysis, Key Demand and Price Indicators, and Best Buying Practices


The global Medical Education market reached a value of about USD 37 billion in 2021. The industry is projected to grow at a CAGR of around 5.3% in the forecast period of 2022-2027 to reach a value of about USD 53 billion by 2027.

The global Medical Education industry report gives a comprehensive analysis of the industry, including critical segments, trends, drivers, restraints, the competitive landscape, and other essential market aspects. The expanding need for online learning is primarily driving the market. North America is the highest category spender by region, driving the demand for the Medical Education industry.

Industry Definition and Segmentation

Medical education includes the first training to become a licenced physician, whether as part of initial training or as part of ongoing education as a surgeon or consultant (i.e., medical school and internship), as well as extra training beyond that (e.g., residency, fellowship, and continuing medical education). The Medical Education industry report comprises segments by Delivery Mode (Classroom-Based Course, Distance, Online, Others), Training (Cardiothoracic, Neurology, Orthopaedic, Oral and Maxillofacial, Paediatric, Radiology, Laboratory, Others), End-Use (School of Medicine, Government/Military Organisations, Hospital, Insurance & Company, Non-Profit Organisation, Publishing or Education Company, Others) and Region (North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, the Middle East, and Africa, and South America).

North American Region is Driving the Growth of the Industry

North America holds the largest share in the market due to the increased need for online learning, which stems from a growing need to design a system that improves medical professionals' knowledge and helps them keep up with current medical breakthroughs. Furthermore, implementing enhanced educational frameworks and transitioning to competency-based medical education continue to fuel market expansion in the region.

The increase in the patient population is propelling the industry, and illnesses have diversified throughout millennia. Currently, there is a greater demand for competent medical education. This is due to sudden epidemics and pandemics, a group of viral illnesses that have never been investigated before. As a result, these factors are expected to increase the existing demand for medical education, propelling the medical education market growth in the coming years. Also, the market is being driven by the increased demand for online learning stemming from the growing requirement to create a system that not only boosts medical professionals' knowledge but also allows them to keep current with contemporary developments in the medical sector.

Best Procurement Practices

The global Medical Education industry report by Procurement Resource gives an in-depth analysis of the best buying practices followed by major global Medical Education regions across the globe, such as engagement models, contract terms, and buyer and supplier negotiation levers, among others.

Category Management Studies

Physician education and licencing requirements vary significantly throughout the world. Between graduating from secondary school and becoming an attending physician with full medical licencing in the United States (US), the medical education process typically entails a minimum of 11 years of formal training and many standardised tests. In contrast to most other countries, where medical training begins after high school graduation, students in the United States usually join a 4-year medical school after obtaining an undergraduate bachelor's degree.

Introduction of Technological Advancements, Further Boosting the Medical Education Market

Universities are introducing new teaching techniques such as practical-based approaches, evidence-based medicine (EBM), problem-based learning (PBL), and hands-on engagement and training with patients to enhance their medical knowledge, rather than traditional discipline-based curriculums. Medical education on the internet is anticipated to increase because it provides unique access to new study methods such as pace customisation and interactive learning via videos and audios, all of which are cost-effective. Furthermore, continuing medical education (CME) promotes lifelong learning by assisting medical professionals in filling gaps in their professional practice, which will likely contribute to market growth throughout the forecast period. Virtual reality (VR) is gaining popularity as a new means of simulation as financial constraints and standards grow. Virtual reality benefits learners and educators because it delivers on-demand, cost-effective, reproducible, and standardised clinical training. Virtual reality simulation has a substantial body of research supporting its usage in various fields, including healthcare.

The regional markets for the industry can be divided into North America, South America, Europe, the Middle East and Africa, and the Asia Pacific.

Market Landscape

The increase in mergers and acquisitions is expected to increase public awareness and, as a result, promote industry growth throughout the projection period. A vast number of local and regional firms, as well as national and international players, compete in the medical education industry. This is leading to a highly competitive market. As a result of the competitiveness, multinational pharmaceutical and biotech firms, large hospitals, clinics, and research institutions have begun to give financial and travel assistance to students completing their medical education.

Key Initiatives by Companies

  • On Friday, Atrium Health completed its acquisition of Wake Forest Baptist Health, resulting in a 42-hospital health system with a presence in four states that will open in October 2020.
  • On November 30, 2021, GE Healthcare announced partnerships with SOPHiA GENETICS, The University of Cambridge, and Optellum to reinvent treatment, make accurate health more accessible, and eventually improve outcomes for cancer patients.
