Company Overview
eDynamic Learning is celebrating 18 years of serving educators.
Founded by a classroom teacher, we're on a mission to empower educators with accessible and equitable resources, guiding students on their journey to life after graduation. We are dedicated to supporting both teachers and programs that facilitate student exploration of interests, career options, and skill acquisition through Career and Technical Education (CTE). We prioritize quality and the development of vital life readiness skills, including interpersonal communication and financial literacy.
Our commitment to fostering exploration starts early, with resources tailored to middle school students. Our rich courseware catalog and Learning Blade resource have a proven track record of expanding STEM, computer science, and career interest and awareness.
As the largest publisher of CTE and elective digital curriculum in North America, we offer a vast catalog of over 250 courses spanning grades 6-12. Our CTE pathway curriculum aligns to 14 career clusters, preparing students for nearly 100 industry certifications. To help bring our curriculum to learners, we provide professional development as well as virtual instructional services, supported by certified teachers, that facilitate personalized learning.
eDynamic Learning doesn't stop at coursework alone. We are passionate about helping students grow their skills through experiential learning through our Knowledge Matters virtual simulation instructional materials and projects. Our simulations are true hands-on learning in a virtual environment.
We take pride in the fact that our solutions and services are designed to empower educators and students alike, enabling them to take a transformative journey of exploration, engage in learning, and participate in real-world experiences.
In July 2025, eDynamic Learning was acquired by Pearson Education Inc., the world's leading learning company.
