Edcetera Acquires Pulse Radiology Institute to Expand into Degree-Granting Programs

Acquisition unites Pulse Radiology's didactic program and clinical placement services with Pulse Radiology Institute's degree programs, creating a comprehensive pathway for radiologic technologists and non-healthcare individuals to advance their careers.

WAUKESHA, Wis., Aug. 18, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Edcetera, the Eden Capital-backed provider of career education programs spanning expert-led online exam preparation, continuing education, and pre-licensure training, today announced its acquisition of Pulse Radiology Institute (PRI), an online radiology school offering a fully licensed Associate Degree in Science with a specialization in Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI).

The acquisition unites Pulse Radiology Education's didactic program and clinical placement services with Pulse Radiology Institute's associate degree programs. The combination creates a comprehensive suite for anyone looking to start a new career as an MRI technologist and for existing radiologic technologists looking to enter a new modality. The Pulse Radiology Institute acquisition will also allow Edcetera to offer new associate degrees in allied health fields, including a new RN to BSN nursing degree to debut in 2026.

"Pulse Radiology Institute opens a critical door for people who want to enter the medical imaging profession but don't have prior healthcare experience," said Nader Qaimari, CEO of Edcetera. "By bringing PRI into the Edcetera family, we can now offer a complete journey: from earning your associate degree to securing clinical placement and training, all within one connected ecosystem."

Founded by Neil Huber, Pulse Radiology Institute was designed to make high-quality MRI education accessible to students seeking to enter the field, combining flexible online coursework with hands-on training.

"From the start, our mission at Pulse Radiology Institute has been to remove barriers of entry into the MRI profession," said Neil Huber, founder of Pulse Radiology Institute. "Joining Edcetera allows us to reach more students, expand our clinical partnerships, and continue building programs that prepare graduates to thrive in a growing and vital healthcare sector."

Edcetera has evolved to become a leading end-to-end provider of training and education in health care, skilled trades, and licensed professions. "Pulse Radiology Institute augments  Edcetera's robust healthcare offering, helping reach new segments of the market – specifically those ready to get started in high-demand careers," stated Dina Said Dwyer, managing partner at Eden Capital.

Willkie Farr & Gallagher LLP acted as legal advisors to Eden Capital, CohnReznick provided financial due diligence, and Tree Line Capital provided debt financing.

Pulse Radiology Institute will maintain its name, program structure, and commitment to student success, while the two organizations combine strengths, pairing PRI's degree program with Edcetera's national reach, resources, and Pulse Radiology's established clinical partner network to create a more comprehensive pathway into medical imaging careers.
