I'm thrilled to share an inspiring story from our latest adventure at QuestionPro. Last year, we launched on a bold journey—a pilot program designed specifically for universities transitioning from Qualtrics to QuestionPro. The University of Toledo was the pioneer, and what a journey it has been! Initially, the idea of a 3-month trial raised some eyebrows. The thought crossed our minds: are we opening ourselves up to be taken advantage of? Yet, deep down, we knew it was a leap we had to take. Our goal was not just to showcase our platform but to demonstrate undeniable value—something we believed in wholeheartedly. Our conviction stems from knowing that, at QuestionPro, we offer something unique. We're not just another survey platform; we believe we excel beyond Qualtrics in numerous aspects. This program was our chance to let our dedication shine through, proving that excellence doesn't always have to come with a hefty price tag. The University of Toledo's decision last month to sign a site-wide license with QuestionPro was a testament to this belief. Through dedication, innovation, and relentless support, we showed that our technology is not only more affordable but also exceptionally robust and user-friendly. I want to extend my heartfelt gratitude to Harshad Deshpande, whose support for what I like to call my 'crazy ideas' never wavered, and to Qanit Raza Khan, whose ongoing commitment to the University of Toledo has been pivotal. Your support has been instrumental in turning this vision into a reality. This story is not just about a pilot program. It's a narrative of courage, innovation, and the relentless pursuit of value. At QuestionPro, we're on a mission to revolutionize how universities engage with survey technologies, making advanced tools accessible and affordable. As we continue on this path, we invite other universities to join us in this revolution. Together, let's unlock new possibilities and redefine what's achievable. Feel free to DM me to learn about the pilot program. Thank you for being a part of our journey. Let's make history together. #QuestionPro #Innovation #UniversitySurveys #Surveysoftware #DigitalTransformation #TechInnovation #SurveySolutions #HigherEducation #CustomerExperience #DataDrivenDecisions #EdTech #UniversityPartnerships #QualtricsAlternative #TechnologyLeadership #CampusTech

Today, we are announcing our decision to recruit and place just one class of Congressional Innovation Fellows for the year of 2024. As a result, we will not be hosting a June 2024 fellowship cohort. This decision comes as a response to the ever-evolving tech policy landscape, our commitment to prioritizing the fellowship experience, and the desire to give our organization the opportunity to prioritize refinement and growth.

Do you know that over one-third of professional immigrants are underemployed? This means their skills, education, and experience are not fully utilized. Dumebi faced this situation. She moved to Canada a few years ago with an insurance background and no tech experience. She wanted a high-paying, professional job that allowed her to work from home due to her young kids. A friend introduced her to BlackTECH Academy, where she enrolled in the Business Analysis Accelerator Program. This program included hands-on, real-life projects to bridge her knowledge gaps and gain relevant tech experience. With guidance from expert faculties and one-on-one job support from BlackTECH mentors, Dumebi leveraged her soft skills and what she learned at BlackTECH to land a fantastic job as a Business Analyst.

🏫 Creating an Inclusive Campus: We Need Your Voice! 🏫 One of the biggest challenges universities face today is ensuring that our campuses are welcoming and inclusive for everyone—students, faculty, and staff alike. An inclusive environment fosters better learning, collaboration, and overall satisfaction. 💡 Solution: Surveys with QuestionPro! By using QuestionPro to gather feedback on diversity, equity, and inclusion, we can gain deep insights into our campus climate. These surveys allow us to hear directly from our community about their experiences and perceptions. Here’s how it helps: ♦ Identify Issues: Understand the specific areas where we need to improve. ♦ Inform Policies: Use real data to shape effective policies and initiatives. ♦ Track Progress: Regular surveys help us track our progress over time and ensure we’re moving in the right direction. Your input is crucial! Every voice matters, and by participating in these surveys, you contribute to a more inclusive and supportive environment for everyone. Let’s work together to create a campus where everyone feels they belong and can thrive. #CampusClimate #StudentVoice #InclusiveCampus #QuestionPro
