A New Chapter in Enterprise Learning for Africa
We’re proud to announce that Arthmatic is now an official Udemy Business partner, providing licence distribution, implementation support, and referral services to organisations across Africa.
This partnership brings together Udemy’s world-class learning marketplace — with over 27,000 curated courses across technology, leadership, business, and professional development — and Arthmatic’s deep understanding of institutional requirements in the African context.
Why This Matters
Corporate learning has fundamentally changed. The days of sending teams to week-long offsite workshops or relying solely on in-house training departments are behind us. Modern organisations need on-demand, self-paced access to continuously updated content taught by real-world practitioners — not just academics.
Udemy Business has become the platform of choice for over 16,000 enterprise customers globally, including organisations like Bosch, FedEx, and Volkswagen. The platform covers everything from cloud architecture and data science to management fundamentals and communication skills — with new courses added weekly by subject matter experts who work in the field.
But for African organisations, accessing and deploying Udemy Business has historically come with friction: foreign invoicing, limited local support, procurement processes that don’t align with institutional requirements, and no on-the-ground expertise for implementation.
That’s where we come in.
Three Ways We Work With You
1. Licence Reselling & Distribution
We procure and distribute Udemy Business licences on your behalf. This means:
- ZAR invoicing — no more navigating foreign currency procurement
- Flexible seat counts — from 20 seats for a growing team to enterprise-wide deployments
- Annual or multi-year terms — aligned with your budgeting cycles
- Local payment terms — procurement processes that satisfy South African institutional requirements
Whether you’re a government department, a private enterprise, or a professional association, we structure the commercial arrangement to fit your institutional processes — not the other way around.
2. Referral Partnership
Know an organisation that could benefit from corporate learning? We facilitate introductions to Udemy Business with a structured referral process. No complexity on your end — just a seamless handoff from introduction to deployment.
This is particularly valuable for consulting firms, HR advisory practices, and industry bodies who regularly work with organisations looking to invest in skills development.
3. Implementation & Deployment
This is where our systems engineering expertise comes in. We don’t just hand you licences and walk away. Our implementation service covers:
- SSO integration — connecting Udemy Business to your existing identity provider (Azure AD, Okta, Google Workspace, and more)
- Learning path configuration — structuring courses into role-based learning journeys aligned with your organisation’s competency frameworks
- Custom collections — curating content libraries specific to your team’s technology stack, industry, or strategic priorities
- Admin training — ensuring your L&D team can confidently manage the platform, track engagement, and generate reports
- Adoption strategy — a structured rollout plan that drives actual usage, not just licence procurement
We approach Udemy Business deployment the same way we approach all our platform work: with structured methodology, institutional understanding, and governance-grade rigour.
