Corporate Education Group

What Corporate Education Group does

Corporate Education Group (CEG), founded in 1987 and headquartered in Andover, Massachusetts, is a private B2B corporate training and development firm that delivers workforce upskilling solutions across seven practice areas: Management and Leadership, Project Management, Business Analysis, Lean Six Sigma and Business Process Management, Collaboration/Inclusion/Belonging, Agile and Scrum, and Artificial Intelligence. Service delivery takes three forms — public enrollment courses, private cohorts, and fully tailored learning journeys — built on a Collaborative Design approach that maps to each client's organizational context, learner requirements, and strategic priorities. The offering stack spans instructor-led public courses, virtual instructor-led sessions, certification prep programs (Project Management aligned to PMBOK 8th Edition, Certified ScrumMaster/CSM and CSPO through Scrum Alliance, Certified Business Analysis Professional/CBAP through IIBA, and an internal AI in Business Certification), on-demand webinars, executive coaching, and assessments. Authorized partner status with PMI (REP #1011), Scrum Alliance, IIBA (EEP E47900), and the Blanchard Authorized Partner Program permits CEG to issue PDUs, CDUs, Scrum certifications, and SLII credentials, which anchors its positioning with HR, L&D, and business leaders across enterprise and mid-market clients including NASA, Moderna, Lockheed Martin, UPS, Stryker, Medtronic, Phillips 66, NOAA, Charles River Laboratories, IQVIA, and Westinghouse.

The business model is pure professional services revenue tied to course fees and bundled solution sales. Solution sizes are publicly characterized at $20K-$150K+ per engagement with consultative 3-6 month sales cycles, while public courses carry per-seat tuition with materials bundled. Distribution is direct enterprise field sales plus public enrollment and a marketing mix of LinkedIn, email, webinars, downloadable catalogs, and YouTube. CEG operates as a private firm owned through CEG Operating Company, LLC with Corporate Education Group, Inc. as the legal IP holder; no external private equity, venture capital, or institutional investors are disclosed, and the firm has been independently operated since founding.

The technology layer is content and curriculum rather than software: proprietary curriculum aligned to PMBOK Guide 8th Edition, Scrum Alliance, IIBA, and Blanchard SLII standards; a Cohort Experience learning model designed around peer cross-functional learning; and curated delivery tooling for virtual instructor-led and AI-fluent course delivery. AI capability is curriculum-facing rather than product-facing — CEG trains professionals on third-party AI tools (Microsoft Copilot, ChatGPT, Fellow, ClickUp, Avoma, DeepL, Auditboard, Resolver) and now offers a full AI practice area with an ARTiBA AiE certification partnership. The firm holds GDPR-compliant data practices and is structured for US delivery with remote/hybrid operating flexibility.
