Who is Candlefox?
Candlefox is the EdTech company behind Shortcourses. We've spent years studying how Australians research, compare, and choose their next learning step, and we use that insight to connect our provider partners with the right learners at the right moment.

What services does Candlefox offer?
We offer a range of practical solutions to help you reach more learners and grow your enrolments, including lead generation, cost-per-click, enrolment services, and phone leads. Our platform is continually developed to give partners more effective ways to engage with prospective students.

Testimonials & Case Studies
“ We’ve worked with Candlefox for a number of years now, and they’ve played a meaningful role in supporting Online Courses Australia’s growth journey over that time. The partnership has consistently delivered value through increased lead volume, broader channel diversification, and scalable acquisition opportunities across multiple course categories.
What’s stood out most has been the collaborative nature of the relationship. The Candlefox team has always been proactive, responsive, and genuinely focused on building a commercially sustainable long-term partnership rather than chasing short-term wins. As both businesses have continued to grow, they’ve remained flexible and solutions-focused, which has made them an easy and trusted partner to work with.
We’ve really valued the relationship over the years and appreciate the way Candlefox continues to look for opportunities that create mutual value and support ongoing growth for both organisations. ”

Introducing CourseView
CourseView is our embedded course discovery experience, built specifically for publisher environments. Drop it into your website and your audience can browse, compare, and enquire about real courses from trusted providers, without ever leaving your platform.
It's designed to feel native to your site, not like a third-party widget bolted on. That means a better experience for your users and better conversion for you.
CourseView connects directly to the Candlefox marketplace, giving your visitors access to thousands of courses across every major category. Every enquiry generates shared revenue between you and Candlefox, tracked in real time through the Candlefox Publisher Hub.
In short: you bring the audience, CourseView does the rest.
