Centerprising
21st Century Technology in Education
Family businesses are vital to the global economy, yet they face unique challenges that traditional business schooling often overlooks, such as succession planning, wealth preservation, and future education technology.
Founded by Harvard alumni Florence Tsai, Centerprising offers online learning programs tailored for family business leaders and wealth creators. Based in Boston and LA, the company offers six-week courses that combine podcasts, webinars, and action planning while leveraging 21st century learning systems for its community of leaders.
Centerprising had the curricula and the community, but the infrastructure wasn't delivering a new tech in education experience. The site and LMS weren't fully integrated, causing friction when navigating between environments and undermining the site's professionalism.
The LMS itself also needed to be adapted and extended to support the specific structure of Centerprising's programs: a mix of live webinars, pre-recorded podcasts, and action planning tools that didn't fit neatly into off-the-shelf course formats.
The experience needed to convey the same level of rigor and intentionality as the curriculum itself, and a generic site wouldn't cut it for the next stage of education and technology.
Capicua worked with Centerprising to improve and extend both the website and the LMS. We integrated a purpose-configured LMS into the WordPress environment, ensuring that marketing and learning felt like one coherent product rather than two disconnected tools.
We added HTML, CSS, and JavaScript customizations to adapt the LMS to Centerprising's specific program structure, supporting the integration of webinars, podcasts, and action-planning content that defines the Centerprising learning model.
The goal was to leverage cutting-edge technology for education to reflect the intelligence and intentionality of the curriculum it delivered. The broader strategy focus was on creating an environment that was both educationally effective and commercially compelling.
