CSUB Undergrad and Continuing Education Programs Now Available on Edgox

California State University Bakersfield (CSUB) has partnered with online learning platform Edgox to make select CSUB undergrad and continuing education programs accessible to a bigger and more diverse student market.

First in line is CSUB Golden Three, where students can jumpstart their US college education from wherever they are in the world and before any formal undergraduate admission. The program, wholly unique to CSUB, allows international students to remotely complete three out of the “Golden Four” required courses by the California State University (CSU) system. These courses are included in the curriculum of all bachelor’s degree programs in CSUB and the 23 other CSU campuses.

Upon completion of the Golden Three Program through the Edgox platform, the units may be credited toward any CSU bachelor’s degree or may be transferred to other US universities.

This comes as good news for aspiring international students who may have otherwise had to defer enrollment this year. With the Golden Three Program available in Edgox, they have a path to begin their pursuit of a degree from CSUB or any other US-based institution.

Also on offer from CSUB Extended Education and Global Outreach is the Change Management and Organizational Development (CMOD) Certificate Program. This three-course certification prepares professionals to take on change leadership roles within any organization. CMOD trains students with essential change management skills that will translate immediately in the workplace and applicable across all industries.

The intensive program is even more relevant in this time of great disruption when businesses and organizations rely heavily on change practitioners to spearhead innovations and to come up with creative solutions to problems both new and old.

CSUB is among the top-ranking universities in the United States. It is committed to scholarship and lifelong learning as evidenced by its more than 50 bachelor’s and master’s degree programs all designed to advance intellectual and personal development. This strategic partnership with Edgox brings a CSU education closer to reality to students outside the United States in this post-pandemic world.

Edgox is an online learning platform offering certificate programs, corporate training, and personalized career mentorship to executives, young professionals, and adult learners seeking further competencies in high-demand fields. It is backed by M Square Media (MSM), a leader of innovation and globalization initiatives in the international education sector.

“We at Edgox partner with top institutions in offering career-relevant programs that will bridge the growing skills gap. We aim to equip students with competencies that are in great demand on the global job market,” said Alex Parnia, Ph.D., President of the United States business of MSM. “But we also aim for responsiveness to changing contexts, and we believe that learners all over the world will find the Golden Three and CMOD programs from CSUB especially usefully in a time such as this, as the world rebuilds in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic.”

From Online to In-Person Enrollment with MSM GMO

The CSUB partnership also extends to MSM, Edgox’s parent company. MSM will serve as CSUB’s Global Marketing Office (GMO) charged with running a global outreach and recruitment program to help attract international students to its 375-acre campus in the Golden State.

This underscores not just CSUB, but the entire CSU system’s commitment to diversity and inclusion. “At CSU Bakersfield, we are committed to providing a multicultural university experience that will better prepare students for a global society. An experience that encourages engagement and communication, helps in developing critical-thinking and problem-solving skills that cannot be taught in any classroom,” said Vincent Konchellah, International Recruiting at CSU Bakersfield.

With over 4,500 education agents around the globe and serving 40 other partner institutions in the United States, Canada, United Kingdom, Europe, and other key markets, MSM is uniquely experienced and qualified to help CSUB advance this commitment.
