Edcetera Engineering is a division of Edcetera, a national leader in continuing education for licensed professionals. Focused on self-paced learning courses and certifications for engineers, the brand supports thousands of professionals seeking to stay compliant and advance their careers. As part of Edcetera, Edcetera Engineering is dedicated to delivering on-demand learning and certification solutions for engineering professionals.
THE CHALLENGE
Disconnected Technology Undermining a Unified Learning Experience
Over the years, Edcetera had acquired more than 15 independent education platforms, each built on its own technology stack. This fragmented approach ultimately led to a disconnect between their eCommerce and Learning Management System (LMS), creating operational inefficiencies and inconsistent user experiences.
Edcetera needed a unified platform to streamline operations, improve brand consistency, and create an enhanced, cohesive learner experience. As a first step in their digital transformation, Edcetera sought a full-service digital agency to transform their Engineering site into a unified, scalable learning platform.
THE SOLUTION
Modern Headless Architecture Connecting Commerce and Learning
Edcetera partnered with Silk Commerce to build a scalable, headless eCommerce experience powered by BigCommerce, Catalyst, Makeswift, and Vercel. The new platform seamlessly integrates with Edcetera’s LMS through Single Sign-On, enabling users to purchase and access courses without interruption.
The modernized storefront empowers marketers to manage content independently while BigCommerce’s Multi-Storefront functionality enables rapid, consistent brand rollouts. Edcetera now has a unified digital foundation designed to support future growth and deliver seamless learner experiences.
KEY FEATURES
Using single sign-on technology, learners can now purchase courses and access them immediately within Edcetera’s LMS, providing a unified experience from start to finish with no friction between purchase and learning.
BigCommerce’s Multi-Storefront capabilities enable Edcetera to launch new brand sites faster while maintaining consistency across all properties.
Makeswift’s visual page builder empowers the marketing team to manage content updates across landing pages, blog posts, and course listings without developer support.
Edcetera Engineering’s new site utilizes BigCommerce’s cutting-edge technology stack, delivering a fast, responsive, and future-proof user experience while simplifying middleware deployments and enabling effortless performance scaling.
