We’re excited to share a major milestone in the Student Edge journey, we’ve officially joined forces with Year13.
For more than 20 years, we have proudly supported over a million young Australians with tools, resources and opportunities to help them navigate study, work, and life. From career readiness and financial literacy to our member rewards platform and nationwide research panel, everything we’ve built has been centred around our mission to help create a success story for every student.
Now, as part of the Year13 family, we’re ready to take that mission even further.
Year13 is Australia’s largest tech platform for school leavers, supporting over two million students across careers, education, and workforce development. By coming together, we’re combining two purpose-driven teams with a shared passion for supporting young people, which opens the door to even bigger impact.
Year13 Co-Founder and Co-CEO Will Stubley said joining forces would support the company’s growth, filling gaps and boosting its content and offerings.
“At Year13, our mission has always been to deliver the most effective, end-to-end school-to-work solution, supporting young people at the critical juncture when school finishes and careers begin,” Stubley said.
“Student Edge, which has supported over 1 million young Australians with tools for career readiness, financial literacy, and access to rewards, brings a complementary and proven model to Year13’s vision, it fast-tracks our plans in areas we’ve already invested in, including across user growth, research, rewards, and insights.”
For our members, it means enhanced learning opportunities, more rewards, and even more meaningful support as they plan their next step. For our partners, it means access to enhanced research and insights capabilities, a broader reach across Australia and internationally, and a stronger, unified platform that connects students with opportunities that matter.
Co-Founder of Student Edge, Damien Langley, said joining Year13 was exciting after building the company from the ground up over two decades.
“We built Student Edge into a trusted platform for young people to access career tools and insights that genuinely support their journey,” Langley said.
“Together, we’ll be able to scale our impact faster, expand our reach across Australia and internationally, and unlock new value for both users and our partners.”
We’ll continue to deliver everything you know and trust from Student Edge, but now with the added scale, speed and support of the Year13 ecosystem. We couldn’t be more excited by what’s ahead and look forward to helping even more young people in the years to come.
