About Us
Acadeum helps colleges and universities quickly expand academic portfolios with in-demand certifications, courses, programs, and degrees to attract and retain learners along the education-career continuum. More than 475 higher education institutions use the Acadeum network and technology platform to expand academic capacity, helping to keep learners on track to graduation, generate and recover revenue, bolster existing or launch new programs, and attract new populations of learners with workforce-aligned curricula and stackable certifications.
How We Started
Acadeum was founded in 2016 to address an emerging challenge in higher education. Many institutions were struggling to find students to fill available seats in online courses. Meanwhile, many students eager to find courses they needed to stay on track were struggling to do so. The system needed an efficient marketplace to connect students with courses.
The first student enrollment on the Acadeum platform took place in December 2016. Five years later, more than 20,000 students at over 400 institutions have completed courses through the Acadeum network.
We didn’t invent course sharing. The Five College Consortium in Massachusetts and Claremont Colleges in California have shared in-person courses for generations. Later, Maryland Online and Virtual College of Texas created innovative online course-sharing partnerships.
But it took much longer for a large-scale, borderless system to emerge. Today, the Acadeum team is committed to helping colleges and universities create course-sharing partnerships with like-minded institutions to boost student success, broaden access to educational opportunities, promote curricular innovation and operational efficiencies, and support institutional success.
