At Pearson, we take learning personally. Our courses and
resources are available as books, eTexts and online, helping people
learn whatever, wherever and however they choose.
Pearson Custom works for educators. We partner with you to build
course-specific materials, designed to facilitate student success.
We open the door to a wealth of content and technology and walk you
through the process of selecting
or creating the custom resources to meet your course goals.
Is it complicated and time consuming?
We walk you through the creation of your customised learning
resource step-by-step, managing every aspect of its design right
through to final delivery. The result is a learning resource that
gives you everything you need to engage your students with relevant
material.
What about an eText?
Your customised resource can be made available as an eText, a
printed book or a combination of both, to suit the mutual needs of
you and your students.
Is it possible to include my own course
materials?
Yes, Pearson Custom allows you to incorporate your own course
notes into the customised product and make them available to your
students.

Cover
Gallery
Should you decide to use Pearson to publish your own custom
book, we have a number of covers to choose from in our cover gallery.
Some points to consider when choosing your cover are:
- The cover design should appeal visually to you and your
students
- The cover design should appropriately reflect the content of
your custom book - for example, if you are publishing a humanities
title, steer away from designs with a finance focus.
- We can customise any cover with images that you wish to
provide, to enhance and personalise your book to your course.
