About BVT Publishing:

BVT Publishing (BVT) was founded on the belief that all students have the right to education and should not face barriers to higher education due to the cost of textbooks. BVT is dedicated to providing quality, affordable textbooks that meet the needs of students and instructors alike. As a growing publisher, BVT prides itself on developing products through awareness and forward-thinking.

About the relationship:

BVT needed a new SSO solution because their current implementation with a learning institution wasn’t functioning as desired, causing tension with their customer relationship (a school). When Edlink’s Jimmy Louise sent a tailored email to BVT’s Richard Schofield, Richard requested a meeting.

In the meeting, Richard discussed BVT’s challenges and needs for a seamless SSO solution. The team planned to implement grade syncing soon, with the overall goal of saying "yes" to integrations when asked by prospective schools. By the end of their conversations, BVT saw how Edlink’s connections could support their goals.

With one integration to Edlink, BVT could connect to dozens of LMS, SIS, and IAM providers (e.g., Clever, Schoology, and PowerSchool). Edlink’s connections offer features like SSO, rostering, content sync, and grade sync, providing BVT with a clear path for future features. Plus, BVT can use data management tools like Sharing Rules in the Edlink Dashboard to easily scope access for their users. With Edlink as their integration partner, BVT is ready to offer their users integrated, seamless experiences.
