New Strategic Partnership Between Governet and Campus CE Provides Unprecedented Synergy and Connectivity Between Higher Education Institutions and Students


(GlobeNewswire Via Acquire Media NewsEdge) Santa Barbara, Nov. 15, 2012 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Governet, creators of CurricUNET, the award-winning curriculum automation system for higher education institutions, announced today that it has formed a strategic partnership with Campus CE, developers of innovative on-demand software services for colleges, universities and continuing education institutions.  The partnership will create synergy between the companies, expand the capacity of each to improve educational access, automate workflow, and provide unprecedented Web-based connectivity between institutions and students.



Currently serving hundreds of higher education institutions and statewide college systems throughout the United States, CurricUNET's suite of academic curriculum management services automates, streamlines and indexes approved curriculum in the states where it is deployed.

CurricUNET also enables institutions to connect to statewide articulation and transfer systems and share vital resources for accreditation-required curriculum review via Web-based access to a database of more than a half-million course outlines and thousands of program and degree offerings.


Campus CE's open enrollment Education Management System (EMS), which is currently deployed at more than eighty institutions nation-wide, including multi-campus regional and state-wide systems, serves as a student services portal for online registration, admissions, payment processing and administrative management tools for distance education and open enrollment curriculum. Provided through a Software as a Service Platform (SaaS), Campus CE's EMS enables institutions to electronically connect students, faculty and administrators throughout complex registration, academic scheduling and student networks. The system provides flexible options for marketing to constituents while providing administrators real-time information for academic decision making..

The strategic partnership will combine resources and maximize synergistic capabilities of both companies to expand their networks by creating the Campus CE / CurricUNET Integrated System, which will enable unprecedented sharing of information between higher education institutions and students.  The Integrated System will bridge each company's networks in areas of curriculum development, management, and approval, pre- and co-requisite tracking, administration and student information, articulation, academic scheduling, enrollment, and curriculum delivery - both online and in the classroom.

"For more than a decade, we have been building the worldwide curriculum network which has been accessed, primarily, by educators and administrators at client institutions," said George Tamas, Governet's Chief Executive Officer.  "By leveraging our vast library of course and program offerings with Campus CE's EMS, the strategic alliance seeks to automate and improve upon the primary value chain activities of public and private higher education and training organizations." The Campus CE / CurricUNET Integrated System will streamline processes and eliminate double entries into multiple databases at each level, which will create significant savings in labor and optimize access to information across institutional databases. With such automation, the average curriculum approval and education management overhead can be reduced by more than 70%, which can ultimately reduce the cost of education for students.

"Our mission is to make higher education and training affordable and accessible for 100% of our nation's student and adult learner population by developing the 21st century, internet-driven standard for the higher education, technical training and lifelong learning workflows," said Loren Pace, CEO of Campus CE. "By partnering with Governet, we are tapping into their existing network, which will further our ability to help educational and training institutions provide exceptional student services.  At the same time, we can greatly increase connectivity, efficiency and productivity for all constituents through synergistic collaboration, information sharing and innovative technology."
