a Provider?

A provider is an organisation that has relationships to people reflecting some form of service they provide in an education context. Examples of services include a campus, a higher education provider, work experience business etc. In the context of Paradigm, the organisation is defined once as a provider. The type of provider is further distinguished through the assigning of one or more roles.
