Interested to learn how to put course sharing to work for your institution? Get the tools and resources you need to bring back enrollments and recover tuition revenue.
Our newest ebook is here! See how twelve institutions in our network are using course sharing to boost academic innovation and think outside-the-box: creating new majors, revitalizing existing programs, managing their portfolio, and launching market-competitive offerings.
Dr. Glenell Lee-Pruitt, Provost at Jarvis Christian University, discusses her vision for course sharing, and how their institution applied strategic solutions in Summer 2022: “We’re able to retain students because they’re able to get the courses they need when they need them, when they want them, and continue through with their degree.” Watch the video below, or connect with a member of our Sales team HERE.

“I was excited about the flexibility [of course sharing]. Once we had to migrate to virtual learning and hybrid learning during the pandemic, our administration got it and understood that this could work for us. It’s a way for us to fill gaps, like replacing faculty lost to retirement. I’m excited about the possibilities.” - Dr. Bobbie Knight, President, Miles College.
