Melbourne Business School (MBS) is the graduate school in business and economics at the University of Melbourne – consistently ranked among the world’s leading universities. MBS is globally recognised for its academic excellence, strong industry connections, and leadership in business education. Its MBA program ranks among the best in the Asia-Pacific region and is a top choice for professionals across Australia and beyond.
MBS has made significant strides in expanding its online learning portfolio – offering online degree programs, executive short courses, and custom digital solutions for organisations. As the portfolio grew, the school identified a challenge:
“How might we strengthen our capability to provide a consistent look and feel for our online learners, whatever online learning pathway they take?”
Curio Group partnered with MBS to co-design a solution that would not only ensure a unified learner experience across platforms but also build internal capability to scale and sustain high-quality delivery.
Together, we:
-
Co-designed learning outcomes, topics, formats, and styles in collaboration with MBS stakeholders and program managers
-
Developed consistent Canvas LMS themes and templates, aligned with MBS’s premium brand and pedagogical standards
-
Delivered practical training that tracked skill development and awarded participants with a non-award digital badge upon completion
-
Created a custom online booking portal to provide tailored support when and where needed
-
Enabled MBS administrators to confidently manage Canvas environments and course rollouts independently
The outcome was a seamless implementation of a unified Canvas LMS look and feel, and a capable team of program managers equipped to migrate and manage new courses within this environment.
Through this work, MBS has continued to uphold its reputation for excellence in business education — now with a stronger, more consistent, and scalable online learning experience to match.
