TWS and RSI Students Now Have Easy, Affordable, Digital Access to Course Materials
MELVILLE, N.Y., Sept. 4, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Ambassador Education Solutions, which powers course materials programs for institutions across the country, is managing a new Inclusive Access and Equitable Access program for students at Tulsa Welding School (TWS) and the Refrigeration School (RSI), which are owned and operated by StrataTech Education Group (StrataTech). Ambassador is automating the course materials process for students – all they must do is enroll in their courses and they automatically receive materials in time for the start of class.
Prior to partnering with Ambassador, StrataTech operated its own course materials program. Leveraging Ambassador's Course Materials Platform, RODA, StrataTech has been able to centralize course materials across all its TWS and RSI campus locations nationwide and lower the cost of educational resources. StrataTech can leverage RODA to access standard and custom reports highlighting course materials transactions and trends, including reports that verify usage and fees so they don't overpay for materials. Additionally, Ambassador has helped StrataTech transition from some of its traditional textbooks to more affordable digital options where appropriate. These digital options lead to portability and convenience, accessibility, and cost savings for students.
"Since working with Ambassador, our welding, HVAC/Refrigeration, and electrical students have been able to easily access course materials and benefit from lower costs, and our campuses greatly appreciate having a course materials expert on hand," said Mary Kelly, President & CEO of StrataTech. "From the standpoint of inventory and fulfillment, everything we need is efficiently organized and easily accessible in one location. In terms of service, Ambassador immediately integrated into our team. They understand our operations and are quick to address any questions from our various campuses, all while focusing on enhancing the student experience and innovating the delivery of curriculum content."
StrataTech provides Ambassador with student and course materials information, and Ambassador manages the Inclusive Access and Equitable Access program. For digital materials, Ambassador works with the publishers to handle licenses, durations, and access so students can immediately connect to their eBooks within their Learning Management System (LMS).
"At StrataTech, innovation is in its nature – from the way it educates its students to the services and technology it provides to make sure students have easy, affordable access to the tools and resources they need to engage and thrive," said Steven M. Blicht, CEO of Ambassador Education Solutions. "We are excited to be working with StrataTech on its Inclusive Access and Equitable Access program, helping them to streamline the course materials lifecycle, control costs, and support students."
