Our Partnership

Akari has partnered with MortarCAPS to align Curriculum Management with the MortarCAPS Higher Learning Data Standard (MCDS)—a sector-led, not-for-profit standard built on the CAUDIT HERM model and developed with CAUDIT, CUCCIO, and working groups representing 100+ institutions.

By adopting a shared data language, Akari customers can reduce bespoke data mapping, improve interoperability across their higher learning ecosystem, and support cleaner downstream reporting and analytics. This standards-based approach helps institutions move faster with less integration risk, while Akari stays focused on delivering robust, modern Curriculum Management—now on foundations that are designed to scale across vendors and regions.

At Akari Software, our mission has always been to help institutions treat curriculum as a single, trusted digital asset. By aligning with the MCDS we’re strengthening that mission – supporting shared definitions, improved interoperability, and more transparent curriculum governance across higher education. This partnership enhances our ability to help universities design, manage, map, and publish curriculum with confidence, while enabling data‑informed decisions that support both learners and institutional planning.We’re proud to collaborate with MortarCAPS in advancing a connected, standards‑driven future for higher education.
