01/ the brief

A world-class university. No online platform. An ambition to reach learners across Asia-Pacific.

RMIT Online is the digital arm of RMIT University — one of Australia's leading technical universities. To reach learners at scale across the Asia-Pacific region, they needed a complete end-to-end digital learning platform built from scratch, aligned with their cloud-first strategy, and capable of running with 99.9% availability from day one.

  • Traditional face-to-face delivery needed to extend to fully online — covering enrolment, payment, LMS, assessment, and accreditation
  • Course material needed migrating and uplifting with dynamic, interactive instructional design
  • The platform had to integrate with Student Management Systems and align with RMIT's cloud-first ICT governance
