Edmentum,
a global education leader and a pioneer in online teaching and learning
solutions, has announced a partnership with Total Package Hockey (TPH),
the leading hockey service provider in positively impacting the lives of
student-athletes through hockey. This innovative partnership brings
together TPH’s commitment to the academic success of student-athletes
and Edmentum’s extensive history in digital curriculum, adaptive
assessments, and educational consulting. This unique blend of core
instruction and mentoring is designed to facilitate a positive,
individualized approach to learning.
Total Package Hockey will use Edmentum’s EdOptions Academy to drive
forward academic support of student-athletes within TPH Centers of
Excellence. Edmentum’s EdOptions Academy is fully accredited through
AdvancEd®. Highly qualified, state-certified teachers experienced in
online instruction deliver research-based curricula through a wholly
virtual environment. TPH Centers of Excellence are focused environments
where dedicated student-athletes train with innovative hockey training
methods, play to their fullest potential, and study through blending
online learning with EdOptions Academy.
“We’re thrilled to partner with the tremendous team at Total Package
Hockey,” said Ryan Hagedorn, Edmentum’s chief operating officer. “We
know that every student’s learning journey is different, and we are
committed to providing high-quality curriculum and instruction that is
flexible enough to meet each of student’s unique needs. We are honored
to be a part of TPH’s innovative and engaging program for
student-athletes.”
Student-athletes are offered a one-of-a-kind, personalized experience
that affords the flexibility to succeed in a blended learning
environment. Regularly scheduled live lessons, weekly goal setting,
tutoring sessions, and virtual office hours all work together to ensure
that students feel supported and engaged every step of the way. Students
are presented with a wide range of core, college preparatory, and
Advanced Placement® courses, all of which are NCAA® approved.
Additionally, students have easy access to a dedicated guidance
counselor during their academic journey, ensuring compliance with NCAA
Eligibility Center requirements.
“This unique and powerful partnership combines proven, accredited online
learning with hands-on, state-of-the-art training and instruction,” said
Nathan Bowen, Total Package Hockey chief executive officer. “We are
tremendously proud of our Centers of Excellence, our team, and the
success experienced through our work with Edmentum.”
In just six years, four Center of Excellence alumni have been drafted to
the National Hockey League (NHL), and 35 have made NCAA commitments.
What’s more, over the last two years, TPH student-athletes who studied
through EdOptions Academy achieved a 100-percent graduation rate, while
the Center of Excellence model has helped produce student-athletes
committed to or currently attending 18 universities listed in U.S.
News’ Best National Universities.
