Learnosity Wins SIIA Education Technology CODiE Award for Best K-12 Enterprise Solution

SAN FRANCISCO, May 14, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Learnosity, a transformative education technology company, announced that The Learnosity Publisher Toolkit won an SIIA CODiE Award for Best K-12 Enterprise Solution.

The Software & Information Industry Association (SIIA), the principal trade association for the software and digital content industries, announced Learnosity as one of 31 CODiE Award winners in the education technology category. An SIIA CODiE Award win for ed tech companies is an especially prestigious honor, as each award winner has been selected by a combination of educators, who act as initial judges by selecting finalists from among all nominees, and SIIA members-company peers, who vote to select the winners from among the finalists.

"We are thrilled that our product was recognized as being the best in our category," said Learnosity Founder and CEO, Gavin Cooney.  "The Learnosity Publisher Toolkit was up against some leading names in the education industry.  To be singled out as 'the best' is important recognition of the value we bring to our customers."

The Learnosity Publisher Toolkit offers a suite of Assessment tools which allow our clients – educational publishers and testing organisations – to add Common Core-aligned, interactive assessments to their digital products. Complementary authoring and reporting tools are also available.

"We believe that the pace of innovation in education has lagged behind other industries, and we are committed to reversing that trend.  The CODiE award validates that Learnosity is succeeding at bringing innovation to education and, in so doing, instilling a love of learning in students."

"SIIA's 2014 Education CODiE Award winners' are some of the most innovative, high-impact education products out there," said SIIA Vice President for the Education Division Karen Billings. "We congratulate all of this year's CODiE Award winners, and thank them for the contributions they have made to the education industry."

About the SIIA CODiE™ Awards 
The SIIA CODiE™ Awards, originally called the Excellence in Software Awards, were established in 1986 by the Software Publishers Association (SPA), now the Software & Information Industry Association (SIIA), so that pioneers of the then-nascent software industry could evaluate and honor each other's work. Since then, the CODiE Awards program has carried out the same purpose – to showcase the software and information industry's finest products and services and to honor excellence in corporate achievement.
