Salesforce, Grammarly and Inspera are the
latest additions to the EdTech Collective, which continues as the
largest partner community in the edtech industry with over 1,000
partners
SALT
LAKE CITY, July 8, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Instructure,
the leading learning ecosystem, announced the creation of the EdCo
Partner Program to support partners dedicated to improving student
success. EdCo partners can connect directly with educators and
students within the Instructure Learning Ecosystem, where learning
happens. The EdCo Partner Program is part of the ever-expanding
EdTech Collective, Instructure's partner ecosystem designed to help
intensify educational impact by working as an industry to solve the
most important problems facing educators.
New categories within this program include integration partners,
evidence partners, strategic partners and solution partners. This
new program connects Instructure's resources to enhance support for
partners at every stage of their journey by providing tailored
assistance based on the type of partnership.
The EdTech Collective was created in 2021 to help partners
meet the numerous challenges facing the industry. Since then, it
has grown to over 1,000 members and supports companies of all sizes
and stages with unique tools to build solutions, drive adoption and
grow impact. Some of its new partners include:
- Salesforce, the number one AI CRM, will collaborate with
Instructure, combining innovative technologies to enhance the
educational experience for students and educators alike. Informed
by our joint customers, we are committed to combining the strengths
of Salesforce Education Cloud and Instructure to streamline
administrative processes, improve student engagement, and foster
personalized learning. Together, Instructure and Salesforce
are driving transformative change in the education sector,
empowering institutions to achieve meaningful success
- Grammarly's institution-wide offering, Grammarly for
Education, announced its intention to integrate its Writing Score
API into Canvas LMS, providing a real-time quality check on any
document and supporting students in submitting their most correct,
clear and engaging writing. When institutions enable Writing Score,
students will be able to get immediate baseline feedback on an
assignment's correctness, clarity, delivery and engagement before
they submit their final version.
- Inspera's assessment and proctoring tools help improve
the student experience by seamlessly integrating with the LMS.
Canvas customers will be able to benefit from Inspera's experience
in delivering high-stakes digital assessment at scale, as well as
the efficiency gains available from a centrally administered
approach to exam delivery. Existing customers of both Inspera
Assessment and Canvas will also benefit through the deeper
integration of the two solutions which will greatly improve
usability for academics that want to link assessments from Inspera
into Canvas and vice versa.
EdCo partners now have various ways to work with Instructure and
can earn badges to display on their website and marketing materials
to demonstrate their partnership. Instructure offers them focused
support to address significant challenges such as high teacher
turnover rates, low student test scores and a need to demonstrate
the efficacy of edtech tools as post-pandemic funding ends. They
have access to extensive industry expertise, the ability to
collaborate with and learn from other partners, access to a global
network of educational institutions and a unique set of tools to
bring their solutions to market. EdCo partners can build an
integrated solution within Instructure's trusted, user-friendly and
highly interoperable ecosystem. EdCo partners can differentiate and
grow their solutions with rigorous, formative research, unique
implementation insights and tools to scale.
"With the creation of the Instructure EdCo Partner Program, we
are extending our long-held belief in the power of the ecosystem by
connecting the broad partner community with our users in ways that
allow them to jointly create learning environments that address
their most pressing challenges," said Mitch
Benson, Chief Strategy Officer at Instructure. "The program
helps our partners build integrations, drive adoption of their
tools and grow their impact."
Close to 65 valued Instructure partners are InstructureCon
sponsors and will attend the conference to connect with users,
demonstrate their solutions and facilitate discussions. AWS, K16
Solutions and Lincoln Learning Solutions are the exclusive Diamond
Sponsors of InstructureCon 2024. Platinum Sponsors include
