It started with two people and one shared inspiration
A short letter from our founders
We started with a question: How can education deliver an immediate and lasting impact in a rapidly shifting work landscape? What we knew then – and are still convinced by now – is that practical skills in in-demand technologies matter, but in the working world, where tech is driven by teams, the unique things that make us human are equally important. By combining the two, we can move people closer to their full potential.
In 2019, that approach to education didn’t exist. It was our chance to reimagine it; to build a learning model that leads to better outcomes.
With the model in mind, we needed to connect two key (but often isolated) spheres of knowledge to bring it to life: the great minds of industry and the world’s leading universities.
And that’s what we did.
– Omar and Jack
We unlock potential with (and for) our partners
Let us introduce you to
Reimagined Education
The working world changes fast. Today’s in-demand skill can go from rare to required in less time than it takes to master it. And that’s frustrating – it’s difficult to keep up, difficult to know what to learn, difficult to stay relevant, and difficult to have an ongoing impact (the kind that keeps more people in the jobs they love).
In these conditions, Reimagined Education makes it easier to go further, faster, by matching the pace of change without sacrificing the quality of learning.
Develop deep knowledge, faster, with market-driven curriculums aligned with the standards of university qualifications. Get hands-on experience with the software tools people need for impactful work, and complete live business projects co-designed with the companies hiring and promoting top talent in high-demand areas.
Your learning experience is built using the latest tech and innovative teaching methodologies. It’s also based on a holistic approach to career development that lets you take charge of your ongoing growth – helping you stay relevant for longer.
And while there are core ideas that underpin our approach, we don’t stay static – we evolve as the tech and the thinking do.
Our support function is about so much more than just keeping you on track with coursework (although we’ll do that, too). Through customised career support – including 1:1 executive coaching and group-based mentoring – we proactively set the stage for you to build a career you’re proud of that those around you admire.
