Blue Sky is a outstanding, intuitive resource. From Day 1 it has been impactful. It is a platform that is easy to adopt, easy to imbed and has an immediate impact. We are still at the very early stages of our engagement with Blue Sky. After five years we are still expanding our engagement and finding new ways that Blue Sky can positively impact our learning community. Their frequent updates and development, their expansion into Blue Sky learning, their commitment to innovation, all indicate that our engagement with Blue Sky will continue to grow and deepen in future years.
