The Client
Our client is one of the largest US (and global) educational content and courseware providers.
The Challenge
They were looking to scale up a team of SMEs for digital programs. They needed an educational services provider who could manage this across a wide range of course areas, grade levels, varying standards, and state requirements.
Critical Success Factors

Our Approach

- Defined process maturity levels for reviewing and tagging content at scale, while enabling the client to build their own scalable approach in the future.
- Delivered detailed reports of how or why gaps exist in the current courseware within a 3 month window.
