For decades, the education industry has been considered stagnant and not worth big investments. This changed with the era of the digital — now educational apps and websites are some of the most popular ones. On Apple App Store, Education has been constantly the third most popular app category; on Google Play the second.
This popularity translates directly into ROI. According to a TechNavio report, the e-learning market size will grow by $93.64 billion during the years 2020-2024. However, it’s important to keep in mind that this report has been done prior to the COVID pandemic. Because of the forced remote work and remote learning, the downloads of education apps significantly surged since the Q1 of 2020.
There are at least a couple of major reasons that make the education apps top all the rankings. These are:
However, be aware that these mostly relate to the apps dedicated strictly to students. If you are considering investing in edtech, you might also choose to build a product focused on improving the efficiency of the teacher’s work or a middleman platform between teachers and students.
Whatever type of education app you want to develop, your best bet to make it perform exactly as it should is to hire experienced education app developers.
Some of the tasks that education app developers can handle for you are:
Before you start hiring education app developers, you must clarify your requirements for the candidates.
First, choose the platform you are targeting. It’s best if you have an app for both the web and the mobiles — this way your customers can truly access your product whenever they want, both from desktops, tablets, and smartphones.
You can approach the world of mobile in different ways, e.g. by developing native mobile apps for each platform, investing in cross-platform app development (the iOS and Android versions share then a significant chunk of code, speeding up the development), or make your web app a progressive web app (PWA) which shares many amazing features (e.g. notifications) of a native mobile app but doesn’t require installation via the official store like Apple App Store or Google Play.
In the end, you will most likely have to hire at least a few education app developers, including separate groups for both the mobile and the web side of the project. Because of this clear distinction, you will also need to have a bit different hard skills requirements for both of these groups. The categories to consider, however, will be pretty much the same. These are:
All these, of course, are just the most basic hard skills categories to consider when you hire education app developers. Your project might require additional, more specific technologies. Because of this, we highly recommend discussing your needs with a software consultant or an IT project manager prior to starting the hiring process.
While technical excellence is important, so are soft skills. These can significantly improve how your whole education app development team operates — how well they cooperate and how innovative they are.
To truly power up your company, hire education app developers with especially the following soft skills:
Besides both the hard and the soft skills, you should also look into how well your candidates actually fit your company. Consider especially the following areas of company fit:
A team of talented education app developers is the first step to make a mark with your new edtech product. But there is so much more that can be done to improve your chances for success. Onboard experienced digital designers, data scientists, IT project managers, and machine learning engineers, and together build a product that truly makes a difference for students worldwide.
