Grand Canyon Education, founded in 1983, operates as a shared services partner for colleges and universities. The company provides a suite of operational and technological solutions to support partner institutions throughout the entire student lifecycle. These services encompass strategic enrollment management, academic counseling, financial services, marketing, human resources, faculty recruitment, and support for learning management systems.
A significant portion of the company's work involves developing and maintaining the technological infrastructure that underpins modern higher education operations. Since 2009, Grand Canyon Education has invested nearly $2 billion into this infrastructure to support its partner institutions.
The company also operates through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Orbis Education. Orbis Education partners with universities and healthcare networks to create career-ready graduates, combining online learning with hands-on and clinical program experiences.
