“This partnership gives higher education a product built for how institutions actually operate \u2014 accessible on day one, and designed to grow with them,” said Richard Keaveny, Chief Executive Officer of Acadeum. “Through Acadeum Marketplaces, colleges and universities of any size get instant access to Coursera’s full catalog of industry-recognized certificates \u2014 no minimum purchase, no barrier to entry. Schools aren’t just accessing content, they’re deploying a real product that plugs into their existing systems and delivers measurable outcomes for learners moving into the workforce. That’s what makes these credentials accessible, affordable, and deployable for every institution, regardless of size or resources.”<\/p>\n
“We’re seeing a clear shift in how students prepare for work and how employers evaluate talent,” said Anthony Salcito, Senior Vice President & President of Enterprise, Coursera. “Our latest Micro-Credentials Impact Report<\/a>\u00a0found that 92% of U.S. employers are willing to offer higher starting salaries to graduates with micro-credentials, reinforcing the value of combining a degree with industry-recognized credentials. Twice as many students are likely to enroll in a program offering credit-bearing micro-credentials than those that don’t. Through this partnership with Acadeum, more colleges and universities can offer professional certificates in ways that complement their existing programs and better connect education to employment.”<\/p>\n The partnership arrives as higher education leaders face growing pressure to deliver immediate, measurable career value to students while preserving academic rigor and faculty governance. By pairing Coursera’s content with Acadeum’s delivery model, institutions can quickly bring high-demand credentials to market and open new revenue streams, all while preserving their own autonomy over pricing, transcript mapping, and curriculum decisions.<\/p>\n The partnership also connects participating Coursera campuses to Acadeum’s broader academic network of hundreds of member institutions, which share in-demand courses with one another to help drive gains in enrollment, retention, and completion<\/p>\n Through Acadeum Marketplaces, participating institutions can license Coursera’s professional certificates instantly or build a fully configured, white-labeled Skills Marketplace tailored to their workforce and upskilling initiatives. For-credit courses and certificates offered through the consortial model count toward home institution credit, financial aid, and graduation requirements. The model also lets institutions access courses and certificates only as needed, so colleges and universities can grow their offerings in step with student interest.<\/p>\n The Acadeum and Coursera marketplace offering is available now to institutions in Acadeum’s network.
