Case Study
Risepoint Academic Partnerships
Academic Partnerships (AP), a leading online program manager (OPM) owned by Vistria Group, has been a pioneer in the field since its establishment in 2007. Renowned for serving over 55 colleges and universities and converting more than 4,000 campus-based classes to online courses, AP faced significant financial and enrollment challenges common among its regional public university clients. On May 1, 2024, AP rebranded as Risepoint, continuing its mission under the leadership of CEO Fernando Bleichmar. Seeking to expand its reach in the Middle East, Risepoint collaborated with OBCIDO to promote and sell online MBA programs.
