IpX works with global academic institutions to support industrial education, research partnerships and offer students holding CM2 certification job placement, awareness, and community.

University partnerships provide students access to the CM2 methodology, the most robust framework and quality management platform for creating and maintaining a digital enterprise with complete end-to-end ecosystem traceability. CM2 training teaches students practical and actionable hands-on methods preparing them for the workforce and providing credentials to their resumes to set themselves apart in the hiring process.
