(Boston, MA, February 23, 2022) Today Educate 360, parent company of brands such as Project Management Academy, announced that they have acquired Velopi LTD, a leading provider of project management training and consultancy services in Europe. Velopi will continue to serve its customer base with a broader mix of courses and increased delivery capability from Educate 360.

The CEO of Educate 360, Jason Cassidy, shared his thoughts on the acquisition: “We feel that Velopi provides Educate 360 with the ideal platform for further global expansion in Europe given its strong customer relationship and its reputation in Ireland and beyond for high quality project management training and consulting. We know this combination will allow us to help Educate 360’s customers who are looking for increasingly global solutions and Velopi’s customers who may be looking for a broader set of offerings from a trusted provider. Seamus and I know we share similar approaches to serving the customer.”
