Introducing Our Biggest Student Experience Update — From Web to Mobile

Updated: May 28

Introducing our biggest student experience update — from web to mobile

Our mission is clear: to build the most effective and future-forward learning environment for the next generation of global talent. This week, we're excited to introduce a suite of updates designed to take that mission to the next level—with smarter tools, a faster platform, and new opportunities for upward mobility across borders.


A Fully Rebuilt Univad Website – Smarter, Faster, Cleaner

We’ve rebuilt our platform from the ground up with the learner in mind. The new Univad website isn’t just a cosmetic upgrade—it’s a complete redesign of how we deliver online learning.


What’s new:

  • 2x faster page loads across all regions

  • New intuitive dashboard for students and instructors

  • Mobile-first design with complete device compatibility

  • Enhanced accessibility features (for screen readers, keyboard navigation, etc.)

  • Dynamic course search and recommendation engine


With over 60% of learners accessing content on mobile or low-bandwidth devices (UNESCO, 2024), performance and simplicity are essential. Our new platform ensures Univad stays accessible and competitive—especially for learners in Africa, Southeast Asia, and remote parts of Europe and South America.


Introducing the All-New Univad Mobile App

Learning on the go just got better. The new Univad Mobile App delivers a seamless education experience packed with the most-requested student features.


Top Features:

  • Stream or download lectures on-demand

  • Track course progress, milestones, and certifications

  • Built-in OrixAI assistant for smart help

  • Get assignment support, resume reviews & career advice instantly

  • Chat with mentors, instructors & peers in real-time

  • Receive personalized course recommendations


You’re working full-time but also learning. With the mobile app, you can watch a 10-minute lecture while commuting, chat with your instructor at lunch, or submit your weekly task while waiting in line. It adapts to your life, not the other way around.


Built-In OrixAI Support – The Smartest Student Assistant

Our proprietary AI assistant, OrixAI, is now more deeply embedded into the Univad learning experience—especially on mobile and in course groups.


What OrixAI can do for you:

  • Answer questions about your course material

  • Help structure assignments or solve academic problems

  • Review your resume and suggest improvements

  • Recommend courses based on your skill gaps

  • Guide you with career path planning and skill validation


In 2025, over 70% of learners say they need real-time support to stay consistent in online courses. With OrixAI, Univad learners don’t just consume content—they get mentorship, academic clarity, and career navigation in one place.


Rolling Out to Diploma Students First

These new tools and features will launch this weekend exclusively for Diploma students, as part of our phased upgrade rollout. Short Course learners will follow soon after.


These learners are enrolled in longer, more intensive programmes—many of which are tied to certification or global pathway opportunities. Our aim is to ensure they receive the full benefit of the new learning experience as early as possible.


New University Pathways: Weldios University Partnership

We’re proud to announce a new academic partnership with Weldios University, offering a direct entry pathway for Univad Diploma graduates.


What this means:

  • Earn advanced placement in Weldios undergraduate programs

  • Faster entry into international academic systems

  • Reduced cost of university education via credit transfers

  • Broader recognition of Univad Diplomas as valid stepping stones


Over 40% of Univad students report aspirations to continue their education abroad or with advanced certifications. This partnership ensures our graduates aren't just skilled—they’re recognized and connected.


Building What Next-Gen Education Should Look Like

At Univad, we don’t believe in just keeping up—we believe in setting the pace. These new updates are a reflection of the future we’re building:


Our vision includes:

  • Frictionless access to quality education across any device

  • Deep AI integration to reduce dropouts and improve learner support

  • Expanding partnerships that unlock real-world opportunities

  • Building a student community that’s vibrant, global, and collaborative


Online education retention improves by 32% when learners have access to smart guidance and peer interaction. Univad now combines both at the system level—creating a complete loop of support, learning, and opportunity.


What Comes Next?

This is only the beginning. In the coming weeks, we’ll be launching:

  • A referral-based student rewards program

  • Creator tools for instructors, allowing anyone to teach on Univad

  • Additional university and corporate partnerships

  • A real-time leaderboard for top-performing students

  • Expanded OrixAI career services, including internship matching


Univad is not just growing—we’re redefining how global education should work.

Whether you're taking your first course or planning a full career transition, we're building the tools to help you thrive—anywhere in the world.
