Recently, Alibaba Group’s enterprise chat and collaboration app DingTalk announced to launch a whole package of solutions on educational and training products, covering all the steps like enrollment, online teaching, administration management, payment, home-school services, and office collaboration. 

According to DingTalk, the solutions mainly aim to help small and medium-sized education and training institutions to get out of difficulties in the post-epidemic period and achieve new business growth.

Many small and medium-sized education and training institutions that rely on offline teaching have been impacted to varying degrees during the epidemic. JMDedu surveyed 1036 education institutions across the country after the first quarter of this year. 

We find only 3.8% of interviewees have completely resumed work, and as many as 56.4% of the companies were waiting for resumption. Among them, 23.9% of the companies believed that the operations would be resumed online.

It is worth noting that at the same conference, a full-chain solution for education and training developed by Alipay and DingTalk was also officially unveiled, which will build up a new ecosystem in China’s education market. The solution covers three new products for consumer acquisition, bridging business and cash flow, and the Alipay marketing solution, which can help education and training institutions form a digital closed-loop of management and operation.
