Montreal, Canada – April 21, 2014 – Auckland University of Technology (AUT) has selected Blue to manage and fully automate its course evaluation process. This partnership is a testament to Explorance’s continued commitment to the Australia and New Zealand region and its expanding global leadership role.

With a short implementation timeframe, AUT needs a robust software solution that can tackle institution-wide paper evaluations and surveys. Blue’s deep integration with AUT’s IT infrastructure makes Blue the clear choice for a centralized solution to the institution’s needs. With flexible reporting and ease-of-use automation, AUT leverages Blue Text Analytics and synchronization with enrollment data to analyze hidden themes within open-ended student feedback. With a market leading text analysis tool, AUT has the ability to make sound improvement decisions in their teaching and learning environment.
