About us

Acuity Insights was born out of the merger of two companies: Altus Assessments which specializes in developing admissions assessments tools, and One45 which provides program management solutions that have long served medical and health science programs. The combination of experience and expertise between our teams gave us a unique end-to-end perspective on the challenges and opportunities faced by leadership and administration of higher education programs today.
