TORONTO and CINCINNATI, OH, June 10, 2026—
Modern Campus has partnered with Future Ready Consulting to launch Growth Advisory Services, a new offering that empowers continuing education leaders to identify new program opportunities, optimize existing portfolios, and prepare for emerging funding pathways.
In 2026, workforce needs are evolving faster than traditional degree programs can respond. Learner demand has shifted towards flexible, career-connected education. Colleges and universities face increasing pressure to make the right decisions about their program portfolios.
The arrival of Workforce Pell eligibility on July 1 adds new urgency to those decisions, giving institutions new options to expand access to short-term, workforce-aligned learning.
Modern Campus, a leading provider of learner-to-earner lifecycle technologies for higher education, has long helped institutions connect learning experiences to workforce outcomes. Future Ready Consulting, an industry-leading advisory firm, helps colleges and universities align continuing education strategy with workforce demand.
Together, the organizations saw a growing need for better market intelligence and strategic guidance. For many continuing education leaders, the challenge is determining where to focus their efforts.
Growth Advisory Services is designed to meet that challenge through four engagements:
Growth Advisory Services provides institutions with a data-driven, structured framework for evaluating potential investments and making strategic decisions.
Per the National Student Clearinghouse, as of 2025 over 43 million learners have some college but no credentials, demonstrating a crucially important population that well-aligned CE offerings can serve. The partnership between Modern Campus and Growth Advisory Services empowers institutions to better deliver for this growing population.
“Continuing education leaders are being asked to make important decisions in a rapidly changing environment,” said Craig Chanoff, CEO of Modern Campus. “As workforce needs evolve and new funding opportunities emerge, the challenge is knowing where to focus. Institutions need to understand where demand exists and how to align programs to the needs of learners and employers.”
Growth Advisory Services is available through Modern Campus and complements its Lifelong Learning solutions.
