The company said its total registered users grew 65% year over year in 2020 to more than 77 million. Coursera said over 2,000 organizations, 4,000 academic institutions, and 300 government entities had used its platform to upskill and reskill their employees and students.\nCoursera's earnings report landed a day after Cheggreporteddisappointing results that derailed the stock. Chegg shares fell 45% after the company reported third-quarter revenue of $171.9 million, well below their forecast of between $194 million to $196 million.\nThe company said its subscriber figures dropped from 4.86 million to 4.4 million.\nChegg chief executive Dan Rosensweig attributed the decline to lower enrollmentacross higher education institutions, writing that in late September, it became clear that the education industry is experiencing a slowdown that they believe is both temporary and a direct result of the COVID-19 pandemic.\n\"A combination of variants, increased employment opportunities, and compensation, along with fatigue, have all led to significantly fewer enrollments than expected this semester. And those students who have enrolled are taking fewer and less rigorous classes and are receiving less graded assignments. We believe this is a post-pandemic impact that will affect this school year but is not sustainable for higher education long term,\" Rosensweig said.\n\"This is a post-COVID hangover of mental exhaustion, an opportunity to earn more money, a reassessing of their lives, not unlike what you hear going on in the corporate workplace. It just all came together at one time. We didn't see it happening and it happened.\"\nAfter being questioned by analysts, Rosensweig said \"millions of students just didn't go back\" to school, noting that the company has only seen the slowdown over the last 30 days.\n\"We're 30 days into seeing this and it's not that it's 30 days, to 60 days or 90 days. It's just this semester. It could be limited to this semester. We could see a whole bunch of people come back in January that just took all the money that they could for the Christmas holidays because Starbucks is tripling their salaries,\" he added.\nSome analysts pressed Rosensweig about why he thought the downturn would only be short-lived considering how many parents are questioning the high costs associated with sending their children to college and potential decreases in the amount of funding given to colleges from the federal government.\nCoursera once tumbled more than 15% in after-hours trading.","news_type":1,"symbols_score_info":{"COUR":0.9}},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":1123,"commentLimit":10,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false,"reportStatus":false,"symbols":["CHGG"],"verified":2,"subType":0,"readableState":1,"langContent":"CN","currentLanguage":"CN","warmUpFlag":false,"orderFlag":false,"shareable":true,"causeOfNotShareable":"","featuresForAnalytics":[],"commentAndTweetFlag":false,"andRepostAutoSelectedFlag":false,"upFlag":false,"length":79,"subscribersOnly":false,"subscribersOnlyAccessible":false,"xxTargetLangEnum":"ZH_CN"},"commentList":[],"isCommentEnd":true,"isTiger":false,"isWeiXinMini":false,"url":"/m/post/841891540"}
