We are devoted to serving colleges and universities. We recognize that we have a unique responsibility to create the space for change—and to remind people of the essential role higher education plays in breaking down unjust barriers. As one of the fastest-growing education technology companies in the world, we believe in offering an environment where all employees and customers feel accepted and set up for success, regardless of gender, age, sexual orientation, race, religion, or cultural background.
While we are still early in our journey, Top Hat has worked hard to make our company a place where everyone can be their authentic selves. As a result of our employees’ grassroots efforts, we have improved our hiring processes, developed strategic partnerships with organizations like the Black Professionals in Technology Network (BPTN), and broadened our talent funnel with the aim of bringing more diverse thought and representation to our team.

Our Vision
Be the leading teaching platform, transforming the way professors create, curate and deliver content inside and outside the classroom to drive educational ROI.
Our Core Values
Our Five Cs are the heart of our culture, they bring our mission to life, and define how we show up for our customers — and each other.
Curiosity is our fuel for innovation, exploring different perspectives, developing empathy, and appreciating what we have yet to learn.
Our diverse backgrounds and life experiences enable us to do more good as a community than we’re able to achieve individually.
We’re always looking for new ways to enrich and improve the customer experience. And we get personal satisfaction in improving the lives of educators and students.
From the small promises we make to the big audacious goals we set, we hold ourselves accountable and ensure we deliver - for our customers and each other.
Affordable and equitable higher education has the power to transform people’s lives, and we’re driven by the role it plays in creating a better society.
