Concordia College Chooses Leading-Edge Blue/Evaluations by Explorance

Montreal, Canada – April 23, 2013 – Concordia College, a liberal arts college in Minnesota, has chosen Blue by Explorance in order to implement an online teaching assessment system.

For Concordia College, Blue’s ability to help them transition from a scanner-paper based course evaluation process through its ability to integrate with their existing information systems, was an important factor in the decision.

“With our old method we only had one choice, a bubble sheet printed on special paper. With Blue we felt that it would be an investment that would not have to be replaced in a few years because it was not keeping up with technology,” said Peggy Goodman, Enterprise Systems Specialist at Concordia College. “The reason that we selected Explorance to replace our current method of performing instructor evaluation was because of the ability to use different options for collecting the responses.”

Located in Moorhead, Minnesota, Concordia College is a vibrant learning community of more than 2,600 students enrolled in over 60 major and pre-professional programs. A recognized leader in global education, Concordia features liberal arts program distinctions in the sciences, communication and business. The purpose of the college is to influence the affairs of the world by sending into society thoughtful and informed men and women dedicated to the Christian life.
