Ann Arbor

XanEdu is continuing to stay a step ahead of the higher education publishing curve, a habit that has helped it to create 100 jobs in Ann Arbor over the last decade.

The company started offering course packs over the web and has evolved that to an electronic publishing empire that now stretches into mobile devices. It recently launched an iPad app that allows professors and students to access course packs and share notes on the latest and greatest computing technology.

"It's really accelerating the delivery of information to students," says Dan Arbour, CEO of XanEdu. "It started with laptops and has moved onto the world of the iPad."

XanEdu now employs 100 people on the city's south side after adding 10 more over the last year. It expects to add another 10 positions in the next year as it continues to innovate in a rapidly changing market. XanEdu is the largest custom course pack provider in North America, with over 15,000 titles published annually at over 2,000 institutions. It will relaunch its website, which will offer enhanced publishing options.
