Social and emotional learning (SEL) is a fundamental framework through which individuals of all ages cultivate the skills to pursue their specific goals, comprehend and regulate their emotions, nurture meaningful relationships, make informed decisions, and experience and express empathy. SEL establishes a robust foundation for students to explore themselves and others within a supportive educational environment.

Social and emotional learning solutions are implemented in schools to impart knowledge to children about self-awareness, empathy, and responsible decision-making techniques, all while fostering a friendly and supportive learning atmosphere.

Distance education refers to courses that can be completed online without the need for students to be physically present at a school, college, or institution. These solutions promote inclusive education and equip students with the necessary skills to succeed in virtual environments by enhancing their emotional intelligence, resilience, and interpersonal abilities. For example, in May 2024, a report by Neil Mosley Consulting, a UK-based online platform, revealed that nearly 138,000 students were enrolled in online distance education programs from international locations during the 2022/23 academic year. Thus, the growing implementation of distance education solutions is fueling the expansion of the social and emotional learning market.
