Partnering With Government to Transform Postsecondary Education
EdVisingU collaborates with ministries, policymakers, and national partners to modernize funding, student services, and digital transformation in higher education. Together, we build systems that are more equitable, cost-efficient, and future-ready.
Higher Education
While postsecondary systems continue to evolve, one truth remains, education has the power to transform lives and economies. Canadian colleges and universities are resilient and adaptable, but international student caps, budget constraints, and shifting demographics are reshaping the sector.
At EdVisingU, we partner with governments, institutions, and organizations to modernize student services, redesign funding models, and accelerate digital transformation. Our work spans strategy, operations, and culture, always grounded in equity and innovation. With decades of leadership experience and deep knowledge of Ontario and Canadian higher education, we bring practical solutions that reduce costs, improve student outcomes, and prepare institutions for an AI driven future.
Our research, consulting, and technology pilots including initiatives like StudentLink Ontario and CrediVersity provide leaders with the insights and tools they need to build sustainable, future ready systems.
