Abstract: Abstract This chapter studies the emergence of the education models of corporate universities in higher education in many industries and many countries of the world. This chapter explores the reasons behind the rise of corporate universities and their challenges for the conventional university system. The chapter emphasizes upon the university board and management to analyze the implications associated with the emergence of the corporate universities for conventional universities, and at the same time look for strategic and preemptive actions to maintain a competitive edge over corporate universities. One such strategic and preemptive action could be that the conventional universities worldwide and across the board should lead the learning innovation and ensure the provision of quality and affordable education programs and services to their learners, whether formal or informal. Otherwise, because of their unique operational models, business purposes, and resourcefulness, the corporate university can easily outcompete and outmaneuver the conventional university model.
