# Imagine Learning **Type:** venture **Status:** Draft **Confidence:** Medium **Tier:** C **Focus:** K-12 digital curriculum, language and literacy, English learners, courseware, edtech **Identifiers:** cik=0001319242 **Roles:** software-engineering, product-design, program-project-management, sales-business-development, people-operations **Stage:** Private portfolio company under Weld North Education; global HQ relocated from Utah to Tempe, Arizona **Primary Location:** Tempe, AZ **Utah Location:** unknown **Region:** unknown **Domain:** computing **Website:** https://www.imaginelearning.com **Careers:** https://www.imaginelearning.com/about/careers/ **Updated:** 2026-08-11 **Needs-reviewed:** 2026-08-11 **Pull:** *Utah-born language-and-literacy software that scaled into a national digital curriculum platform — then moved its headquarters out of state.* ## Summary Imagine Learning sells digital-first K-12 curriculum and services — spanning core, supplemental, assessment, and courseware products including **Imagine Language & Literacy** for multilingual learners ([official site](imagine-learning-official-website.md)). The company's **corporate headquarters** is now **100 S Mill Ave., Suite 1700, Tempe, AZ 85281** ([contact page](imagine-learning-contact-page.md)); its careers page lists additional offices in Austin, Petaluma, Rock Rapids, Glasgow, and Bangalore, and does **not** name Provo or any other Utah location ([careers page](imagine-learning-careers-page.md)). The Utah lineage is historical. A 2014 *Deseret News* report describes Imagine Learning as a **Provo-based** language and literacy company acquired by **Weld North Holdings**, with officials saying it would **remain in Provo** ([Deseret News, 2014](deseret-news-imagine-learning-weld-north-2014.md)). Current captured official pages place headquarters in Arizona instead; the wiki does not have a document establishing how many employees, if any, remain in Utah today. ## Impact The original product wedge — game-based language and literacy software aimed at English learners, struggling readers, and early elementary students — matched a real district need in high-ELL states like Utah. The 2014 article quotes a West Valley City principal describing conversational English gains after adopting the program ([Deseret News, 2014](deseret-news-imagine-learning-weld-north-2014.md)). Since then the company has grown through acquisition into a broader digital curriculum provider. Its homepage now markets a wide product portfolio and displays self-reported scale statistics — **18 million students**, **38,000+ U.S. schools**, **50% of U.S. districts** — which the company states on its own site and which this wiki records as **company-stated**, not verified against a federal adoption registry ([official site](imagine-learning-official-website.md)). The 2014 article's **6,500 schools** figure is likewise attributed to company officials in news reporting and is dated. **Bet:** that owning the English-learner literacy niche in Utah gave Imagine Learning a foothold it parlayed, through Weld North's roll-up strategy, into one of the larger U.S. digital curriculum portfolios — even after the corporate center of gravity left the state. The honest counterweight: headquarters and named offices no longer anchor the company in Utah; whatever Utah footprint remains is undocumented in the captured sources. Impact on Utah schools may still be large through deployed software, but that is customer adoption, not corporate presence. ## Utah Context Imagine Learning is a Utah-founded edtech company whose identity has largely decoupled from the state administratively. Conventionally this is an out-of-state entity with an **unknown** Utah employment footprint until a primary record names a current Utah office or headcount. Utah school use is attested anecdotally in 2014 reporting (Stansbury Elementary, West Valley City) but no current Utah district adoption count has been pulled from a government record. ## What They Need Now The careers page describes a remote-friendly, hybrid workforce hiring across curriculum, engineering, sales, and instructional services nationally ([careers page](imagine-learning-careers-page.md)). Specific Utah-based openings were not captured. ## Open Questions - **Current Utah headcount and offices.** Neither the contact nor careers pages list Provo or another Utah city. A Utah DWS filing, a current job-posting cluster, or a state incentive record would establish what remains. - **Corporate history after 2014 is thin here.** Weld North's subsequent acquisitions (StudySync, Edgenuity, and others commonly reported in trade press) are not documented on this page; a Weld North or Imagine Learning primary filing would tighten the chain. - **Adoption scale lacks independent records.** Homepage statistics (18 million students, 50% of districts) and the 2014 "6,500 schools" figure are self-reported or company-attributed. NCES, state procurement, or USAspending pulls would be needed before treating any adoption number as fact. - **Wayback archives unresolved** for these captures during ingestion; live URLs were retrieved successfully on 2026-08-11. ## Evidence - [Source: Imagine Learning Official Website](imagine-learning-official-website.md) · https://greatutah.work/pages/imagine-learning-official-website.md · https://www.imaginelearning.com/ - [Source: Imagine Learning Contact Page](imagine-learning-contact-page.md) · https://greatutah.work/pages/imagine-learning-contact-page.md · https://www.imaginelearning.com/about/contact-us/ - [Source: Imagine Learning Careers Page](imagine-learning-careers-page.md) · https://greatutah.work/pages/imagine-learning-careers-page.md · https://www.imaginelearning.com/about/careers/ - [Source: Deseret News — Imagine Learning Sold, Will Remain in Provo (2014)](deseret-news-imagine-learning-weld-north-2014.md) · https://greatutah.work/pages/deseret-news-imagine-learning-weld-north-2014.md · https://www.deseret.com/2014/4/22/20539939/education-technology-company-imagine-learning-sold-will-remain-in-provo/
