MELVILLE, N.Y. and BOSTON, July 30, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Cengage, an education and technology company, and Ambassador Education Solutions, which powers course materials and content integration programs, today announced an agreement for Ambassador to offer Cengage Unlimited subscriptions.

Cengage Unlimited is the first-of-its-kind subscription that offers students access to more than 22,000 products across 70 disciplines and more than 675 courses—for a flat fee depending upon the duration, no matter how many Cengage materials they use. Students using Cengage technology platforms, like MindTap or WebAssign, also have the option of a print rental.

Ambassador simplifies the adoption, management and delivery of all course materials, providing a one-stop shop for schools and students to connect with course materials. The integration with Cengage allows students who purchase subscriptions to automatically retrieve their digital materials through a simple and seamless process. The subscription complements Ambassador's already robust course materials solutions, including its Ambassador All-Access offering in which students receive their resources in time for the first day of class.

The expanded partnership with Cengage builds on Ambassador's commitment to support students every step of the way, keeping them informed of their course materials options, providing quick and easy access, and delivering an engaging and supportive learning environment -- all in an extremely cost-effective manner.

"Our partnership with Ambassador strengthens our shared goal to support the changing dynamics of the market and the needs of today's learners, who need more affordable learning options," said Todd Markson, Chief Strategy Officer, Cengage. "We look forward to working with Ambassador to offer students access to quality learning materials through our groundbreaking subscription service."

"The Cengage subscription solution is relevant to today's students - it is comprehensive, it broadens their options, it supports their digital literacy expectations, and it is cost-effective," said Steven M. Blicht, CEO of Ambassador. "Cengage Unlimited aligns with our bookstore of the future model, a smart and flexible approach that is centered around accessibility, affordability and student success."
