Our mission background

Our Mission


We believe the key to transforming education is to:

  • Unlock greatness in individuals to improve their lives and solve our greatest social and economic challenges

  • Unlock greatness in our people to tackle complexity through technology and innovation

Our history

Our History


It started with a vision to unlock access to high-quality university degrees via an online education platform.

We knew we wanted to increase higher education opportunities for busy working professionals, but we also knew that theÌýonline student experience needed to be front and center.

With this ethos, we launched our first university partnerships in the USA and Australia in 2015. While a few things may have changed along the way, our unwavering commitment to education transformation has stayed the same.

It’s why we’ve grown to become one of the most trusted companies providing online education. From humble beginnings, we nowÌýpartnerÌýwith 46Ìýuniversities providing access toÌýhigh-quality online education with more than 104,000 enrollments each year.

Our Values


We strive to produce meaningful work because we believe that by transforming education, together we can transform the world.

Be committed

Unwavering commitment to realizing the power of education to change lives.

Be inventive

Innovate ahead of the curve and be unbound by convention.

Be collaborative

Trust one another, have honest interactions, and find solutions as a team.

Be a lifelong learner

Cultivate and demonstrate expertise, learning, and growth.

Our Culture


Education doesn't stop at graduation - not for our students and not for us.

We believe in the potential within everybody, and we unlock it by fostering a culture that encourages curiosity, learning, and opportunity wherever possible.

It’s why we're continually investing in our people, technology, and data – to enhance the student experience and to extend the reach of our partners by being one of the best online course providers in the world.
