Definition of SAE Institute
The SAE Institute (SAE) and SAE University College (in Australia), also branded as SAE Creative Media, is a global network of private for-profit colleges that offers creative media programmes.
Founded in 1976, SAE was purchased in 2012 by Navitas Limited, an Australian for-profit private education services company. In 2022, Navitas sold SAE operations in the United Kingdom and mainland Europe to Ardian, a French private equity firm. Navitas retained its SAE Creative Media Institute operations in Australia, New Zealand, Canada and the US alongside operations in other parts of the world run by its network of licensed education partners under the SAE brand.
In 2023, SAE Creative Media Institute in Australia became a University College. It now offers self-accredited diplomas and degrees.
