Case Study
University of the Arts London
University of the Arts London (UAL), a global leader in art, design, and communication, partnered with Akari Software to support its need for CMA compliance, rigorous curriculum version control, and collaborative course workflows. Following a pilot in one college, the university-wide rollout delivered a singular source of curriculum truth, integrated directly into UAL’s public course pages via the Akari Open API suite.
By adopting Akari, UAL eliminated manual publication processes, enhanced curriculum accuracy, and ensured consistent student-facing information across its six colleges. Staff now benefit from structured, repeatable processes and dynamic updates, while the platform continues to support innovation and growth across the university’s diverse and complex programme offerings.

Case Study
Swinburne University of Technology
Swinburne University of Technology, based in Melbourne, Australia, selected Akari Software to support its complex curriculum change management needs. Following an initial discovery phase, the project involved extensive configuration and bespoke development—including workflows for faculty and university-level approvals, research degrees, and governance processes.
Akari’s platform was integrated with Swinburne’s existing systems and delivered advanced custom features like professional accreditation tracking, course review date auditing, and comprehensive change summaries. The result is a curriculum management solution tailored to Swinburne’s strategic needs, enabling data transparency, streamlined processes, and a more agile academic governance structure.
