About

Open Learning Global Pty Ltd was founded on the belief that people experience the most effective education when they are self-motivated, engaged, and interested in learning. The OpenLearning platform works to foster communities around courses with the aim of making online learning fun, effective and delightful.

OpenLearning provides a social, collaborative, and engaging way to learn and teach online. It has its roots in the award winning teaching of Associate Professor Richard Buckland, and the team is led by Australian software engineers Adam Brimo (CEO) and David Collien (VP Engineering).

OpenLearning was launched in late 2012 and has already introduced Australia and Malaysia to their first massive online open courses. The platform is rapidly growing, and is currently being used by University of New South Wales, Macquarie University, and the Australian Writers’ Centre, amongst many other universities and organisations. To date, over 30,000 people worldwide have taken courses through OpenLearning.
