Noodle Services

Building online capacity means integrating technology, learning design, marketing, recruiting, support, placement, and financial services. And doing so with flexibility, transparency, and efficiency.

We Start
‍With Data

The transformation to an agile campus begins with good data flowing from every aspect of marketing, recruiting, student support, and academic work and performance. We manage the complex flow of data from schools and systems into a secure, cloud-based data warehouse (n:core). We anonymize it and use it to inform performance benchmarks, and share it to the appropriate authorized users through our proprietary program management platform. We do all of this with ISO 27001-certified security.

Marketing & Recruitment

Online higher education marketing is an extremely competitive space; colleges and universities need a data-backed digital marketing strategy to prevent student acquisition costs from skyrocketing. Noodle Partners combines a heavily quantitative approach with creative branding, SEO, and alternative media to control marketing and recruiting costs while attracting the best and brightest prospective students. Noodle.com, our editorial site, gives our partners access to several million students looking for an undergraduate or graduate program each year. This saves our schools money and provides a high-intent alternative to Facebook or LinkedIn.

Learning Design
‍& Faculty Support

Noodle Partners helps faculty create interactive, collaborative, engaging and innovative learning online. From retrofitting an individual course to a full service build of entire degree programs to learning to harness online teaching tools, our learning team helps faculty create coherent and integrated learning experiences that consistently exceed students’ expectations. Further, we help our schools co-develop high quality case studies and other instructional objects to lower costs and increase engagement.

Student Experience

Great online programs foster a vibrant community of students and faculty that frequently engage, discuss, and share ideas — the equivalent of meeting in the quad. Noodle builds and curates innovative digital tools to encourage and facilitate these organic interactions. Our student support systems aren’t just reactive, but proactive, demonstrating to students that their institution cares about their progress.

Powering Flight

Blending in-house development and outside providers, our software powers our partners’ online programs with increased elegance, speed, and cost-effectiveness. We spend the necessary hours evaluating new software against our rigorous criteria. Because we speak for dozens of schools, we can negotiate lower fees, better support, and new features in the software we choose, adding our own code to address the unique needs of online higher ed.

Bring it
to Life

It’s not enough to simply piece together a bunch of disparate tools and services. Great online programs must be brought to life—everything integrated into a coherent whole, and then iterated again shifting on-campus programs into agile ones.

Even if you want to handle certain services in-house, Noodle focuses on the coordination and support needed to ensure a great educational experience. We discover and implement new ways to take advantage of the growing scale of our network— helping you work with other schools, to improve engagement and lower costs while burnishing your unique strengths and character.
