Ellucian completes Anthology acquisitions
The edtech firm Ellucian on Monday announced it’s completed acquiring Anthology’s student information system and enterprise resource planning businesses.
The acquisitions follow Ellucian bidding for those businesses in Anthology’s bankruptcy proceedings last fall.
“This acquisition marks an important moment for Ellucian as we extend our vision — to unlock learning for all — to an even broader community of institutions and learners,” Laura Ipsen, Ellucian’s president and chief executive, said in a press release. “As we welcome Anthology’s SIS and ERP customers and the teams who serve them to Ellucian, we remain focused on continuity, a seamless transition, and empowering learners for a lifetime of education.”
The deal closed on Dec. 31, according to Ellucian’s press materials, adding 260 former Anthology customers to its customer base.
