History

In 1979, Computer Training Institute (CTI) was founded. [1]

In 2006, the institution partnered with the Midrand Graduate Institute (MGI), which was founded in 1989. MGI later became known as Midrand University. [3] [4]

In 2011, CTI and MGI merged to form the Pearson Institute of Higher Education (PIHE). [1] Over time, the institution grew to have 12 campuses across South Africa. [5] [6]

In November 2020, Pearson announced the disposal of its interests in PIHE, and in 2021, the institution was sold to a consortium led by Stellenbosch Graduate Institute (SGI) and EXEO Capital. The new company registered as the NetEd Group. After the sale, PIHE rebranded as Eduvos. [1]

In 2023, Eduvos welcomed a record number of 9,800 new first-year students. [7]
