In early 2020, Algonquin launched AC Online, its first digital-only campus – and has the highest number of online enrolments of all Colleges and CÉGEPS in Canada. As a leader in the integration of technology into learning, Algonquin College was looking for a flexible student information system (SIS) that could meet its strategic and operational needs, providing the tools to enhance their students’ academic success, improve institutional and operational effectiveness, and optimize SIS-related processes.

Algonquin College selected Unit4 following a rigorous Request for Proposal (RFP) process that complied with the Broader Public Sector (BPS) Procurement Directive of Ontario.
