About the relationship:
The Lyfe Course recently shifted towards selling their product to learning institutions and knew they needed to be interoperable with the tools that these institutions already use. Around this time, Edlink’s Jimmy Louise sent a tailored cold email to The Lyfe Course's Jacob Yano. Intrigued by the potential integration opportunities, Jacob booked a meeting with Edlink's Nick La Riza to explore The Lyfe Course's new direction.
During their call, Jacob explained they were preparing for the 2024 back-to-school season, and wanted to streamline their integration processes to ensure a smooth transition. At that time, The Lyfe Course was hosting its content on another platform but lacked integrations to help students connect to their assessments and grades with LMS providers. After hearing how Edlink could help, The Lyfe Course chose Edlink as its integration partner.
In one integration to Edlink, The Lyfe Course can connect to dozens of LMS, SIS, and IAM providers (Google Classroom, Canvas, and Blackboard, for example), with powerful integration functionalities like SSO, rostering, assignment sync, and grade passback. Plus using Edlink’s 5-minute IT Admin onboarding flow, learning institutions can self-connect their providers in a smooth and simple way. To help build their integration to Edlink, Nick was able to recommend another dev shop that has built an Edlink integration before for another client. By choosing Edlink as their integration partner, The Lyfe Course can focus more on its content without spending thousands of dollars and hundreds of hours developing integrations one by one.
