Episode notes

Welcome back to America’s leading higher education podcast! In this episode of The EdUp Experience, sponsored by Ellucian, we welcome Michael London, CEO, Uwill.

This episode, with special guest cohost Danielle Shelton, host of Tips and Trick, which is part of our EdUp Experience Podcast Network, highlights the amazing efforts of Uwill to positively impact student mental health. Uwill is changing the game in the area of teletherapy. Not only does Michael and the team understand the student and their partner schools, but they've also built Uwill specifically for higher education rather than looking at higher education as just a "channel". Their counselors only work with students. Their mission is to expand mental health access for students and schools through the two-sided technology-based platform that allows students to select their counselor preferences. When students are healthy, we all win. And Michael and the Uwill team can help ensure mental health for students improves.

With more than 20 years of professional accomplishments and EdTech innovations, Michael London is recognized as a premier education technology entrepreneur. In 2013, Michael founded Examity, the world leader in learning validation and online proctoring. Over a 5 year period, the company grew to more than 1000 employees and $30 million in revenue. Prior he was the founding CEO for Bloomberg Institute, funded by Mayor Bloomberg and Bloomberg Ventures. Their flagship solution was offered in more than 500 universities and 45 countries within a two year period. Previously, he led corporate strategy and growth for Kaplan. His earlier successes include co-founding College Coach and EdAssist, both acquired by Bright Horizons (NYSE BFAM) in 2006.
