About NLP

The Noodle Learning Platform (NLP) is an exciting chapter in Noodle’s story: it’s our first-ever direct to consumer (and corporate employee) product. NLP offers our extensive network of top universities a clear pathway to compete in the lifelong learning and corporate upskilling markets. We partner with universities to modernize their educational offerings to meet the demands of the modern student and job market.

How does NLP serve universities?

Strategically, NLP enables our university partners to enter the non-degree space every time they launch a degree program. This drastically widens the potential candidate pool for said programs, and lowers student acquisition cost by reducing their reliance on traditional paid media channels that are increasingly competitive and expensive.

How does NLP serve students?

There’s no shortage of instructional content on the internet—but as a learner, how do you find the right content that matches your career aspirations? NLP enables learners to centralize their discovery and actual knowledge acquisition in one place. Learners can discover the best pathways for their career aspirations, as well as obtain that learning in a more socially engaging, expert-supported, and accessible way than anything else in the market.
