Who we partner with

  • Institutional leadership

    We help university leaders, such as Vice Chancellors, Pro Vice Chancellors, and Deans, strategically identify and implement opportunities to help their institutions thrive, and grow their enrolments responsibly.

  • Academics

    We assist university academics in course conversion to a competitive, highest-quality online format – at the outset and throughout the partnership.

  • Modern learners

    On behalf of our partner institutions, we support students throughout their journey to stay on track while acknowledging their needs to balance learning with work and personal life.

Helping our partners lead the way with career-aligned programs

Using regional market intelligence, we help partners develop a portfolio of high-demand programs that will be most impactful to meet the evolving priorities of modern learners, institutions, and employers.

In addition to supporting traditional undergraduate and graduate degree programs, we’re helping universities cater to learners who are seeking out short-form courses and stackable courses, such as micro-credentials and embedded industry certifications, that deliver more flexibility with immediate career skills enhancement.
