About Kognity:
Kognity combines pedagogy and technology in the very best way, to engage learners and empower educators. The Kognity team believes all students should have access to engaging learning experiences of the highest quality. No matter their background, every student should be supported to achieve their highest goals, with access to the teaching, learning, and assessment opportunities they so richly deserve.
About the relationship:
Kognity sought to integrate its high school science platform with leading Learning Management Systems (LMS) providers to establish a North American presence. Their goal was to provide teachers and students with seamless access to their digital platform while keeping costs under control and ensuring a smooth launch before the back-to-school season. After evaluating various rostering and Single Sign-On (SSO) solutions, Edlink emerged as the clear choice.
“Some of the deciding factors [that led us to work with Edlink] were:
- Support for the Learning Management Systems used at our customer schools
- Easy access to great documentation for our developers so they can both assess the complexity of the implementation as well have quick access to reference material to speed up the development process
- Willingness to work closely with us to understand our challenges through several sessions and meeting on-site
- [Edlink] all show a deep understanding of this complex space and have shown a great passion for solving it
- A business model that allows us to grow together which is a key to a great partnership” | Erik Särnbrink, Product Manager at Kognity
With one integration to Edlink, Kognity now has connections to top LMS providers (as well as SIS and IAM providers). This allows Kognity to simplify key tasks for school administrators and educators such as rostering, single sign-on (SSO), grade passback, and task management. The Edlink dashboard allows Kognity to provide access to the right learning resources to educators and students with a few clicks. Edlink's integrations also let Kognity expand the number of learning institutions they can work with while managing their integrations in one central place. Backed by Edlink, Kognity can save hundreds of development hours and thousands of dollars, allowing them to focus on their core business instead of integrations.
