Case Study
Introduction
Yorkville University began with a simple idea: offer flexible, rigorous, and career-focused degrees on campus and online to people who are on a purposeful path. Since 2004, Yorkville University has grown to encompass three campuses from coast to coast and conferred degrees on thousands of graduates. Graduates use their degrees to launch, advance, or change careers. Yorkville University’s degrees are designed to equip graduates with the professional knowledge, skills, and designations that employers value and flexible degree programs can be taken on campus or online, or a combination of both.
Yorkville University programs are aimed at helping students achieve their personal and professional goals. Online or in class across Canada, Yorkville University’s degrees are flexible, fast paced and above all, lead to transformation through education.
The mission of Yorkville University is to build a national university that provides practitioner-oriented degree programs, leading to professional careers that are personally rewarding and contribute to the betterment of society.
"Studiosity has been a great partner. Their Canadian team worked closely with Yorkville leadership to introduce the service and they continue to provide solid data and helpful advice to optimize the impact of Studiosity’s tutoring service on student success.
The 24/7 availability of the service is ideal for Yorkville students who are spread across various time zones and many of whom are working adult learners – it would be very difficult for Yorkville to provide such a service itself. "
- Dr. Julia Christensen Hughes, President, Yorkville University
