LEXINGTON, Ky., April 23,
2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Ivy Tech
Community College, Indiana's largest postsecondary
institution and the nation's largest singly accredited community
college, has selected eCampus.com, a leader in online
bookstores and collegiate retail solutions, to support the
institution's Ivy+ Textbooks equitable access program and campus
retail operations.
Ivy+ Textbooks is Ivy Tech's award-winning program that provides
students 100% of required course materials on or before the first
day of classes for one low and predictable per-credit-hour cost.
Through this program, eCampus.com will ensure Ivy Tech's students
across 19 campuses are prepared for success on day one. The new
partnership will launch in Fall 2024.
Ivy Tech students will seamlessly enjoy the benefits of Ivy+
Textbooks as soon as they register for courses. Through advanced
technology platforms, eCampus.com will create customized course
material orders for students according to their class schedules,
thus removing the stress of finding affordable materials and
wondering how much those course materials will cost each term.
Equally beneficial is the seamless delivery model through IvyLearn,
the College's online learning platform, where digital content can
be automatically accessed inside the student's learning management
system account.
Beyond student benefits, faculty will enjoy a simplified process
for selecting and adopting course materials through eCampus.com's
robust online adoption platform. As an industry leader in advanced
technology systems, eCampus.com provides faculty the ability to
research, evaluate cost, and enjoy the academic freedom to select
best-fit content, including Open Educational Resources (OER), in
one intuitive portal. Faculty and staff are supported with the
highest-rated service and support team in the industry.
eCampus.com will also extend its expertise in retail management
to operate physical campus stores and creative retail locations
across Indiana. This vital
component to the overall partnership will provide the Ivy Tech community with a reimagined retail
experience focused on trending assortments that accommodate every
budget. Seasonal course material service centers will provide
customized and personal support.
