Each vendor we partner with is meticulously selected through a rigorous vetting process to ensure the highest standards of quality for our learners.
Our procurement team conducts thorough evaluations, which include an in-depth review of curricula, direct engagement with current and former partner institutions, and an analysis of student outcome data.
Additionally, we maintain ongoing due diligence throughout the vendor relationship, continuously assessing student satisfaction and making adjustments to meet the needs of future cohorts. Our current partnerships include the following providers:
