Edmentum, a leading provider of web-based learning programs, announces a milestone of achievement with course approvals by 36 state lists and 7 third-party agencies. Edmentum Courseware provides solid, research-based curricula built from the ground up to align with state-specific academic standards to empower student success. Developing courses to state standards and receiving approvals from third-party agencies continues to be a primary focus, as Edmentum is constantly refreshing its curricula to align with the latest academic initiatives in each state.
To date, Edmentum courses have been approved by state approval agencies in 36 state lists.
