International Business University Partners with Explorance to Generate Actionable Insights That Drive Continuous Improvement with Explorance Blue

Montreal, Quebec – October 2025 – Explorance, a global leader in feedback analytics, is pleased to announce a new partnership with International Business University (IBU). The university has selected Explorance Blue to increase student response rates, achieve end-to-end automation and efficiency, enhance data quality and reporting, and generate actionable insights that drive continuous improvement. 

IBU has long been committed to fostering a culture of excellence in teaching and learning, but the university faced significant challenges in collecting and acting on student feedback. Previously, course evaluations were managed through disconnected systems or paper-based methods, resulting in inconsistent data collection and reporting. Students often lacked motivation or convenient channels to provide feedback, leading to low participation and unreliable data for decision-making. The institution also struggled to extract actionable insights from evaluation results due to limited analytics and the absence of integration with other academic systems.  

Meanwhile, staff spent considerable time organizing surveys, compiling results, and distributing reports manually, causing delays in improvement initiatives. To address these challenges, IBU sought a modern, integrated solution that could streamline processes, boost student engagement, seamlessly integrate with its LMS, SIS, and HR systems, and provide actionable insights across programs and delivery formats. 

To address these needs, IBU selected Explorance Blue, a comprehensive platform designed to transform how institutions collect, analyze, and act on course evaluation data. Blue automates the full evaluation process, from survey creation to report distribution, and integrates seamlessly with IBU’s LMS, SIS, and HR systems. Blue provides role-based dashboards, customizable reports, and advanced analytics, allowing faculty and administrators to easily identify trends, support curriculum improvements, and track teaching effectiveness over time. 

With more than 20 years of experience in higher education, Explorance has a proven track record of helping institutions transform their feedback processes through both centralized and decentralized survey strategies. Partnering with Explorance provides IBU with a solution that unifies its teaching effectiveness processes, reduces administrative workload, and boosts student engagement. These combined capabilities empower IBU to enhance instructional quality, elevate the student learning experience, and foster a culture of data-driven decision-making across the institution.
