Item 8.01 Other Events.
During the fourth quarter of 2018, in connection with its partnership with Humphreys University, the Company announced that it entered the higher education market, under the “Amesite College” brand, offering introductory online courses using the Company’s cloud-based platform. The Company continues to work towards building additional subscriptions and partnerships with higher education institutions for undergraduate course offerings and has also expanded its product to course offerings in the professional and consumer markets with the goal of offering a more affordable and improved experience to higher education learners. In this regard, the Company recently announced that it has launched its “Amesite Professional” course offerings through partnerships with Eastern Michigan University and Wayne State University geared towards providing continued education learning to professionals looking to expand their skillsets and enhance their careers.
In addition, the Company has also now added, for the first time, “Amesite Life” certificated programs to the Amesite brand which are offered directly by the Company (without partnerships with other institutions as co-offerers). Amesite Life courses are targeted at meeting consumer needs for general interest or personal education.
All of the Company’s programs utilize our artificial-intelligence-powered software platform and are appropriately customized for each specific product. The Company’s recently accounted course offerings under the Amesite Professional and Amesite Life products are highlighted below:
