License, customize, or commission

Tell me what you need. Selecting an option below opens an email with a prefilled subject — or write directly to collins.ra@northeastern.edu.

What to include

Each option above opens an email with a prefilled subject and four prompts: institution, program or course of interest, delivery model, and timeline. Those four answers are what make a first reply useful rather than a request for more information. Where a decision date, an accreditation deadline, or a term start is driving the work, saying so at the outset changes what can realistically be proposed.

What comes back

A proposal identifies which of the three paths fits — licensing something that already exists, customizing it for your institution, or commissioning new development — together with scope, sequence, and the permitted-use model. Where an existing program can be adapted to your requirement, that is said plainly, because adapting is usually faster and less expensive than commissioning.

If you are still deciding

Reading Method and Services rendered before writing tends to shorten the first exchange. Between them they show the development order and the effort a complete program actually takes, which is usually the information that settles whether licensing or development is the right question to be asking.
