Instructure, the leading learning ecosystem, recently announced the creation of the EdCo Partner Programme 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 Programme is part of the ever-expanding EdTech Collective, the company’s partner ecosystem, designed to help intensify educational impact by working as an industry to solve educators’ most important problems.
The programmes’ new categories include evidence partners, strategic partners, and solution partners. By offering tailored support based on the partnership, this freshly launched Programme links its resources to improve support for partners at every point of their journey.
The EdTech Collective was created in 2021 to help partners meet the industry’s numerous challenges. 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, Grammarly, and Inspera.
Speaking about the latest development, Chief Strategy Officer of Instructure, Mitch Benson, said:
With the creation of the Instructure EdCo Partner Programme, 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 create learning environments that address their most pressing challenges jointly. The Programme helps our partners build integrations, drive the adoption of their tools and grow their impact.
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.
