Dallas-based Archer Review has acquired OnlineMedEd, a provider of medical education curriculum and supplemental education solutions designed to support students and medical schools alike.
Archer Review, a healthcare education company and a portfolio company of Leeds Equity Partners, said the acquisition strengthens its mission to advance student, professional, and institutional success, ultimately improving patient outcomes.
Terms of the acquisition were not disclosed.
“This is a transformative moment for health care education,” Archer Review CEO Tabatha Erck said in a statement. Erck joined the company last week.
“With OnlineMedEd’s rich history of delivering enhanced student outcomes through deep, well-presented learning content and leveraging Archer Review’s best-in-class adaptive learning technology, we’re poised to set a new standard in medical and nursing education,” Erck added.
In 2024, Archer Review led all North Texas companies on the 2024 Inc. 5000 fastest-growing list. The company says it has served more than 700,000 students with innovative learning solutions for nursing education, helping ensure successful licensure.
OnlineMedEd, meanwhile, has supported more than 300,000 medical students with high-quality, deeply embedded, robust curriculum designed to guide students from preclinical foundations through residency, helping them build confidence in diagnosing and managing real patient cases during the crucial clinical years of medical school. Archer Review said that together, the combined organization will create the most comprehensive tech-enabled learning ecosystem for healthcare professionals, bridging the gap between medical education and the workforce.
“Joining forces with Archer Review allows us to amplify our contribution to medical education. Both organizations share a deep commitment to improving patient care through better education. By combining OnlineMedEd’s in-depth learning content with Archer’s cutting-edge technology, we will empower even more students and institutions with the tools they need to succeed,” OnlineMedEd CEO Doug Hughes said in a statement.
“OnlineMedEd was built to make medical education more effective and accessible. Joining Archer Review ensures that our educational approach reaches even more students and continues to support them at every stage of their training,” Dr. Dustyn Williams, founder of OnlineMedEd, said.
