Examity Selected as Instructure Alliance Partner

NATICK, Mass., Oct. 31, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Examity, the leading provider of online proctoring and identity verification, today announced that it has been selected as an Instructure Alliance Partner. The new partnership, which reflects the unique strategic relationship between Examity and Instructure, will integrate Examity's full suite of proctoring and authentication solutions into the popular Canvas Learning Management System (LMS), allowing a growing number of higher education institutions worldwide to ensure the integrity of online assessments.

"The continued rise of online learning has led to increased demand for solutions that can prevent academic dishonesty and verify the quality of online courses," said Melissa Loble, Vice President of Partnerships and Programs at Instructure. "Examity's unique combination of customization, advanced analytics, and responsive support has established them as a leader, and we look forward to working with them to expand online proctoring as the need continues to grow."

In 2017, Canvas by Instructure was the fastest-growing learning management system for the sixth consecutive year, according to recent data from the education technology research firm MindWires. Instructure's new integration with Examity will give faculty and administrators streamlined access to customized proctoring solutions that meet specific program and institutional needs, and will also provide access to sophisticated analytics of trends and patterns in online exam violations.

"In our work with a diverse cross-section of forward-thinking institutions around the country, Instructure's innovative approach to creating high-quality educational experiences has been a constant," said Michael London, Founder and CEO of Examity. "This partnership will enable college and university leaders to select and implement proctoring solutions more efficiently, and will – more importantly – ensure that students' achievements in online courses can be validated and recognized."

With more than one-quarter of undergraduates in America taking at least one course online, colleges and universities are in search of tools to securely and reliably proctor and verify online assessments. Examity partners with postsecondary institutions and online learning providers including Creighton University, Temple University, and Yale, to provide proctoring solutions designed to address the needs of individual schools and programs. To date, Examity is the only platform to provide live, record-and-review, and fully automated proctoring options, providing greater flexibility and access for online learners.
