This past year, my favorite memory was creating a Hispanic Heritage Month promo video with a fellow Cleverite in our HOLA ERG, as it brought visibility to the ERG and fostered company-wide collaboration!

Through my work on a workstream to make hiring more equitable, I was glad to be able to support my fellow managers across the company. It was truly fulfilling work.

I am most proud of the way Clever is constantly striving to learn. We know that we don’t always get it right, but we have a shared goal of creating psychologically safe spaces so everyone feels understood and supported.

On the first day of school, a student will receive a Clever Badge and that’s all they’ll need. No usernames or passwords, which has been great. Plus, we haven’t had anyone querying, ‘How do I get little Jimmy logged on?

Clever Badges help us save a massive amount of learning time – up to 10 minutes per class every day throughout the academic year.

When deciding between handling integrations yourself or choosing Clever, consider this: Does your solution offer the tools that allow districts to manage integrations independently? Do you have the dedicated team and stability to support integrations each year? If you’ve invested in both, great! But if not, think about whether investing yourself in integrations might limit your ability to offer product innovation and advancement.

If this Back to School season is an indicator of what Clever’s LMS Connect can do to transform how all of this works — it’s only a path up from here. I’m excited about the opportunity to standardize not just the technical aspects but also provide a consistent quality of service that is missing in the education industry right now.

Clearing the technical hurdles is only part of the challenge. Providing the high-touch and high-quality onboarding support for each district’s unique data needs during the Back to School season requires special people with special training. Nobody does that better on the integration front than Clever.

Once more of our applications are available on Clever LMS Connect, it’s a no-brainer that we’ll start using the integration with them. It’s a painless process for something that’s really beneficial to districts.
