OUR DNA
ACADEMIC PUBLISHING IS OUR GENESIS_
As academics, we created and published our first textbook in 2006, with the mission to improve the learning experience for all South African students. We wanted to create courseware that was local, bespoke and accessible.
Over the years, we have honed our skills in academic publishing, educational theory, learning design, multimedia learning and EdTech. As technologists, we designed the EDGE Learning Ecosystem (ELE) in 2016, with multiple academic EdTech solutions in between.
Today, we are a specialist academic EdTech company meeting our clients’ need for digital courseware. With our genesis in academic publishing, and our reputation and experience as experts in education, EDGE has become a holistic education company that leads in the EdTech industry by creating tailor-made learning experiences for higher learning in a way that no one else can.
OUR PURPOSE_
EDGE is meeting the rising demand for digital courseware by our clients. We partner with both local and international higher education institutions, professional bodies, technical and vocational institutions, schools, companies and government agencies in digital learning experience (Lx) design.
Education is trying to keep up with a digitally accelerated rate of change, and we are in the midst of a learning revolution. Our purpose is to collaborate with our clients in 21st-century Lx design and digital transformation.
We empower our clients, as educators, with innovative academic EdTech solutions that enrich their students’ Lx – and thus, in a small way, contribute to educating economically and socially active people to drive the future of South Africa in a global community.
We are educationalists, technologists and partners_
