Let's Build New Pathways
"It's time for a new way. It's been long enough.
Educators and their learners deserve better."
- CK, Onyx's Originator
The digital world offers opportunities to do things differently. But the reality is, true innovation happens within the classroom. We believe it's time for a sea change in the educational world overall.
3 Elements of the Academic Engineering℠ Changemaker Approach
Waiting for the systems to change is an unpredictable and unreliable way to go, so it's time for educators to build our own pathways forward.
Academic Engineering embraces the cultivated abilities educators have for learning and innovation.

Meet CK
My journey took me to learning, teaching, and exploring in countries around the world while expanding my knowledge.
Along the way, my increased awareness showed me that education around the globe needs a renaissance, and that educators around the world need help bringing it to life.
Academic Engineering℠ combines the best of what I've learned, done, researched, experienced, and designed into a new approach to make it happen.
Join me in the movement to build a better, brighter, and abundant future for all through Education 3.0.
