For universities
Your courses. Live industry challenges. A new reason for the right students to find you.
Not every university is on New Horizons. The ones that are have something the others don't.
The problem
Under pressure to prove employability — with the tools to do it stretched thin.
Accreditation bodies globally are demanding verified graduate outcome evidence. Work experience at scale. Employment proof that is real, documented and reportable.
Work experience is supposed to bridge that gap. But organising, managing and scaling meaningful placements is a burden most institutions can't sustain. Time-poor students, stretched faculty and limited employer relationships mean placements stay inconsistent — and rarely aligned to what students are actually studying.
The data comes from the Industry Passport — independently verified, employer-graded, reportable. Not a survey. Not a self-assessment. Real work, real grades, real proof.
of full-time undergraduates now do paid work during term time — leaving little room for course-aligned experience that moves the needle on outcomes.
The solution
Without redesigning anything. Just better outcomes.
No curriculum redesign. No burden on faculty. No new processes to manage.
Students on your courses are connected to real business challenges relevant to their subject area. They opt in alongside their studies. The experience is documented on the platform. Outcomes improve. Graduate employability strengthens.
New Horizons becomes a pipeline — connecting students who already know what they're signing up for, and sending them into the world better prepared than before.
Without barriers. Without additional burden.
Industry Sprints
Two to four weeks. Syllabus-aligned. Plug-and-play.
Challenges arrive as fixed-length Industry Sprints, engineered to drop into your existing academic term structure and map to specific syllabus modules.
Lecturers don't rewrite a single lesson. They pick a sprint that matches the unit they're already teaching, and the work experience runs alongside it — assessed against the same learning outcomes.
The answer to every lecturer who says “I don't have time.”
How it works
Three steps. No disruption.
