Memo Text

The Arkansas Department of Education releases a new application for Digital Learning Providers. All providers currently on the approved list must reapply using the new application. 


Digital Learning Provider Application


Applications are due by March 1, 2025. Providers must be on the approved list to offer courses in the 2025-2026 school year. Applications will be reviewed upon receipt, and providers will be notified of conditional approval. After conditional approval, a digital provider must submit a crosswalk document demonstrating course alignment to Arkansas standards for each digital course offering by May 30th, 2025.


Public school districts and open-enrollment public charter schools that provide digital learning courses to their own students without the assistance of an external digital learning provider are not required to seek approval as a digital learning provider.
