The Adult Education and Training Survey (AETS) was conducted by Statistics Canada in February and March of 2003 with the cooperation and support of Human Resources Development Canada. The reference year for this survey was 2002. The Adult Education and Training Survey (AETS) is Canada's most comprehensive source of data on individual participation in formal adult education and training. It is the only Canadian survey to collect detailed information about the skill development efforts of the entire Canadian adult population. The AETS provides information about the main subject of training activities, their provider, duration and the sources and types of support for training. Furthermore, the AETS allows for the examination of the socioeconomic and demographic profiles of both training participants and non participants. This survey also identifies barriers faced by individuals who wish to take some form of training but cannot. The AETS was administered three times during the 1990s, in 1992, 1994 and 1998, as a supplement to the Labour Force Survey (LFS). The content of the AETS was revised to take into account recommendations coming from consultation exercises. As a result, more than half of the 2003 survey is made up of new questions and the target population has been modified. The main recommendations in terms of content changes relate to the type of training activity covered and the strategy to select randomly one activity for detailed information.

This is the dataset "European remote e-learning ecosystem survey data" of the e-DIPLOMA project.

In 2022 the evaluation of the European tertiary training ecosystem capacity for using disruptive technologies in practice based e-learning was explored. It was done in the eDiploma project WP2. The research problem was: What are the main gaps in tertiary education in the institutional capacity to perform practice based e-learning with disruptive technologies? Three survey instruments were developed for three target groups in institutions: technology specialists, educators and students. The survey was composed of four blocks of capacity elements:

• infrastructural capacities,

• normative and regulatory capacities (institutional level),

• teaching cultures (community level),

• competences, attitudes and values (personal level).

The data were collected with the anonymous web based survey approach in countries: Spain, Estonia, Hungary, Bulgaria, Italy, Cyprus.

In each HEI or VET institution the respondents were:

• Technical and didactical support staff: educational technologist, IT or technical support specialists, lecturers responsible for technology training, Digital policy administrative specialist

• Lecturers or researchers who have experiences with some forms of group-learning or practice based learning

• Students from the institution who have experiences with some forms of group-learning or practice based learning / to be spread among each institution, so that different areas students respond, these should not be one group from one class only)

The answers were collected totally from the following number of the technology specialists-experts (N=96), the educators (N=351), and the students (N=516). The generalizability of the data is limited due to the sampling structure: it was not attempted to reach regional coverage because countries in our sample differ greatly in size. In Estonia responses were collected from 9 institutions (3 vocational schools and 6 HEIs). In Bulgaria responses were from 3 institutions (all HEIs). In Cyprus responses were from 3 institutions (all HEIs). In Hungary responses were from 6 institutions (1 vocational school and 5 HEIs). In Spain responses were from 116 institutions (28 high schools, 41 vocational schools, 47 HEIs). In Italy responses were from 9 institutions (4 HEIs and 5 social enterprises).

The 1998 Adult Education and Training Survey is the sixth in a series of similar surveys designed to measure adult participation in education and 1training. Statistics Canada conducted the Adult Education Survey (AES) in 1984 on behalf of the Department of the Secretary of State and the Adult Training Survey (ATS) in 1986, on behalf of Employment and Immigration Canada. In the late 1980s, as the number of adult Canadians pursuing education and training programs increased, there was a renewed interest in education and retraining as economic development issues. These concerns resulted in Employment and Immigration Canada commissioning Statistics Canada to conduct the Adult Education and Training Survey (AETS) in November 1990, and again in 1992. The main objective of all four surveys was to measure participation rates.In general, each successive questionnaire evolved into a more detailed and comprehensive survey instrument, with greater emphasis on profiling the role of the employer and identifying barriers to training. In 1994, the AETS was modified to explore areas such as access to training. The 1998 Adult Education and Training Survey (AETS) is comparable to the 1994 survey. A few new questions on motivations and expectations have been added. And, for the first time, the survey was conducted using computer-assisted interviewing. As in 1994, Statistics Canada conducted the survey on behalf of Human Resources Development Canada.

Market Dynamics of SSL Certificate Market

Key Drivers for SSL Certificate Market

Increasing Cybersecurity Threats and Data Breaches to Increase the Demand Globally

One of the primary drivers propelling the SSL Certificate Market is the rising incidence of cybersecurity threats and data breaches. As businesses and individuals increasingly rely on online transactions and digital communications, the risk of cyberattacks has grown significantly. SSL certificates play a crucial role in securing data transmitted over the internet by encrypting the connection between a user's browser and the web server. This encryption is essential for protecting sensitive information, such as personal details, financial data, and confidential business communications, from being intercepted and exploited by malicious actors.

Growing Adoption of E-commerce and Online Services to Propel Market Growth

Another significant driver for the SSL Certificate Market is the burgeoning adoption of e-commerce and online services. With the global shift towards digitalization, businesses are increasingly establishing their presence online to reach a broader audience and enhance their service offerings. Consumers are also becoming more comfortable with online shopping, digital banking, and accessing services over the internet. SSL certificates are indispensable for ensuring secure and trustworthy online transactions, as they not only protect data but also signal to users that a website is legitimate and safe to use. This growing reliance on online platforms and services has led to a surge in demand for SSL certificates, as businesses seek to secure their websites, build customer confidence, and comply with regulatory requirements related to data security.

Restraint Factor for the SSL Certificate Market

Cost and Complexity to Limit the Sales

One significant restraint in the SSL certificate market is the cost and complexity associated with obtaining and maintaining certificates. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) often find the expense of high-assurance SSL certificates, such as Extended Validation (EV) and Organization Validation (OV), to be prohibitive.

This can lead to improper configurations, resulting in vulnerabilities and undermining the security benefits SSL certificates are supposed to provide. Consequently, these factors can hinder the broader adoption of SSL certificates, particularly among smaller businesses.

Impact of Covid-19 on the SSL Certificate Market

The COVID-19 pandemic has significantly influenced the SSL certificate market, primarily due to the accelerated digital transformation and heightened reliance on online platforms. As businesses rapidly shifted to remote operations and e-commerce to maintain continuity, the demand for secure online transactions and communications surged, driving the need for SSL certificates.
