Cengage

Cengage is an American educational content, software, and services company that provides textbooks and digital learning resources for higher education, K-12, and libraries. It operates globally, serving institutions, instructors, and individual learners with print and digital products as well as assessment and course-management tools.

Key products include MindTap, a personalized digital learning platform that integrates readings, activities, and assessments; Connect, a course-management and assessment tool; and WebAssign, an online homework system used in STEM courses. The company also markets Sapling Learning for science and other specialized digital resources.

Cengage owns Gale, a major library reference and research content brand, and National Geographic Learning, a line of curriculum resources. The company distributes content through multiple imprints and, in addition to print books, sells digital subscriptions and access through platforms.

In 2017, Cengage launched Cengage Unlimited, a subscription model offering access to most digital resources for a single annual fee, reflecting a shift toward affordable, on-demand learning. The company is headquartered in Boston, Massachusetts, and maintains offices and operations around the world.
