SIIA Announces Education Technology Finalists for 2020 CODiE Awards

WASHINGTON, March 30, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- In celebration of the 35th anniversary of the SIIA CODiE Awards, the Software & Information Industry Association (SIIA) today announces the 157 education technology finalists. These finalists were selected by judges from a pool of 577 entries and represent the most innovative and impactful applications and products from software developers, content, media, online learning services and related technologies.

This year's program features 35 education technology categories, several of which are new or updated to reflect the latest industry trends. With an abundance of caution in light of the COViD-19 pandemic, SIIA has decided to move the 2020 CODiE Awards online. Education Technology category winners will now be announced during an online winner announcement celebration May 19, 2020.

"Now in their 35^th year, the CODiE Awards once again place a global spotlight on the most exciting and transformative products for the education technology, B2B software, information and media industries," said Jeff Joseph, President of SIIA. "These finalists join a long and distinguished list of products that have revolutionized the B2B market. We send our congratulations to each of the honorees."

The SIIA CODiE Awards are the industry's only peer-reviewed awards program. Educators and administrators serve as judges for the first-round review of all nominees. Their scores determine the SIIA CODiE Award finalists and account for 80% of the overall score. SIIA members then vote on the finalist products. The scores from both rounds are tabulated to select the winners. Details about each finalist are listed at https://www.siia.net/codie/2020-Finalists.
