Covista, America's largest healthcare educator, is developing an AI-powered classroom with Google Cloud that aims to deliver personalised learning at scale. The initiative integrates LearnLM, Gemini and NotebookLM into Canvas, the learning management system used by Covista students. The platform will adapt to individual learning styles, creating tailored content including visuals, podcasts and testing materials based on actual course curricula. Covista expects to pilot the integrated environment later this year. Healthcare-specific AI credentials launched by Covista and Google Cloud in October are now available across all five Covista institutions. Over 3,400 learners enrolled within the first week. The certificates cover clinical AI applications and responsible AI use, targeting nurses, physicians and other healthcare professionals. Covista has convened a Healthcare AI Readiness Council including former executives from Cleveland Clinic and UChicago Medicine to guide curriculum development.
Covista has named Amelia Manning as president of Chamberlain University, effective 18 May 2026. Manning brings over 20 years of higher education leadership, most recently serving as Dean of Tulane University's School of Professional Advancement. She previously spent two decades at Southern New Hampshire University, rising to chief operating officer and building data-driven student success systems that powered the institution's growth in online learning. Chamberlain, which serves approximately 40,000 students across 24 campuses, produces more nursing degrees than any other US university and has graduated over 155,000 alumni. Manning succeeds Dr Karen Cox, who is retiring after more than seven years leading the institution. Chamberlain is part of Covista, America's largest healthcare educator, serving more than 97,000 students across five accredited institutions.
Adtalem Global Education reported second-quarter fiscal 2026 results with revenue of $503.39 million and net income of $76.38 million, whilst reiterating full-year revenue guidance of $1.90–$1.94 billion. The healthcare education company announced a new $750 million share repurchase authorisation alongside raised adjusted EPS guidance. The results demonstrated revenue and earnings growth, though the share price pulled back following the announcement, suggesting investor concerns around regulatory issues in student financing and softness at its Chamberlain division. Key near-term catalysts include enrolment trends at Walden and Chamberlain, margin performance and the pace of share buybacks. The Simply Wall St Community's fair value estimates range from $161.50 to over $225.87, reflecting divergent views on the company's valuation despite the improved earnings outlook and expanded capital return programme.
Peregrine Asset Advisers fully exited its position in Adtalem Global Education in the fourth quarter, selling 69,012 shares worth approximately $10.66 million, according to a 2 February SEC filing. The sale comes despite strong fundamentals at Adtalem. The education provider reported fiscal second-quarter revenue up 12.4% year over year to $503 million, whilst adjusted earnings per share jumped 34% to $2.43. Total enrolment rose 6.3% to 97,010 students, marking the tenth consecutive quarter of growth. Management raised full-year adjusted EPS guidance to $7.80–$8.00 and authorised a new $750 million share repurchase programme through 2028. However, Adtalem shares were down about 1% over the past year as of 30 January, trading at $103.55.
Adtalem Global Education shares fell 9.5% after reporting mixed fourth-quarter 2025 results. Whilst revenue of $503.4 million beat expectations with 12.4% year-on-year growth and adjusted earnings per share of $2.43 exceeded forecasts, the company's adjusted EBITDA of $87.91 million missed analyst estimates by 36.5%. The vocational education company also raised its full-year adjusted EPS guidance. However, the substantial EBITDA miss signalled underlying profitability concerns that overshadowed positive metrics and weighed on investor sentiment. Adtalem shares are up 1.5% year-to-date but remain 31.3% below their 52-week high of $154.45 from September 2025. The stock has experienced 12 moves greater than 5% over the past year, indicating notable volatility.
