What is being bought
The University of Edinburgh has awarded a contract to CD Course Limited for delivery of digital micro learning courses, accessed via SMS text and email, to all new UG, PGT and possibly PGR students for the 2024/25 academic year.
This follows a successful pilot last year, we would like to repeat this initiative in the 2023/24. The contract will run for 3 years.
These micro courses support the University to meet its duty of care for students' wellbeing and safety on campus and is a critical annual activity for new students.
For the last 12 months we have been speaking to other universities in the UK and undertaking extensive web research to see if there are any other similar providers with an understanding of the UK context who can deliver similar material as micro learning courses delivered vis SMS text and email. To date, GoodCourse has been the only provider capable of meeting all of our requirements.
