asknet Solutions AG has signed a partnership agreement with Blackboard Inc., making asknet a strategic partner for reselling Blackboard's leading software and services in the German-speaking DACH region (Germany, Austria and Switzerland). Blackboard provides products and services which support learners on their lifelong journey. The partnership is yet another step in implementing asknet's new focus on the EdTech sector. Here, the pandemic has unsparingly exposed the digital deficits, not least of which in the e-learning area. Blackboard's leading solutions and the new partnership perfectly address this dynamic, meeting the ever-increasing needs of academic institutions. Blackboard's EdTech ecosystem includes a flexible learning and teaching platform to provide academic institutions with a uniquely integrated experience across a broad array of capabilities, all aimed at driving student success. In addition, Blackboard's solutions have a very good connectivity to existing learning platforms that are currently in use, but may no longer meet the requirements in terms of employed technology, scalability and usability. In order to effectively unlock the potential of the partnership and to translate it into a profitable business case with significant revenues, asknet will invest in financial and personnel resources and will assign a sales representative dedicated exclusively to the implementation and expansion of this project.
