Pathify Partners With Foundation for California Community Colleges

The Partnership Will Enhance Procurement and Transform the Higher Education Experience

DENVER, October 26, 2023 — Pathify, the exclusive centralized user experience hub for higher education, has partnered with the Foundation for California Community Colleges CollegeBuys program to simplify the procurement and purchasing processes while providing cost savings to more than 100 institutions.

CollegeBuys enables California higher education institutions to streamline lengthy procurement processes by offering legally compliant agreements with pre-vetted partners, now including Pathify. 

The partnership standardizes pricing agreements, ensuring colleges receive “most favored nation” pricing, terms and service agreements. This helps colleges receive competitive pricing and favorable terms. To date, the CollegeBuys program has achieved savings exceeding $500 million for California Community Colleges, with over $34 million reinvested to fund scholarships for 34,000 students.

With faster, easier access and pre-negotiated costs, Foundation for California Community Colleges partner campuses can seamlessly acquire Pathify to address the significant user experience gap in the center of the higher education digital ecosystem. This partnership will empower colleges to deliver a personalized user experience that integrates technology, content, communications, and people. 

“Given the success we’ve had working with a large number of public institutions in California, this partnership makes enormous sense for all parties,” said Pathify’s Chief Revenue Officer Matt Hammond. “We’re excited to make the purchasing process far simpler for schools through a contract vehicle that actually supports student scholarships.”

Pathify offers highly personalized experiences for users at every point in their journey. The Engagement Hub promotes system-agnostic integrations, collaborative social groups, personalized tasks, and multi-channel communication, offering a seamless web and mobile experience.
