TrustEd Apps Pledge
The TrustEd Apps Program begins with our pledge to put open standards and data privacy at the forefront of education technology integrations. It's the 1EdTech community call to action to ensure there's always a level playing field for schools, universities, and state organizations when it comes time to purchase and implement digital tools.
Created by the 1EdTech community, open standards are the best way to enable product choice, reduce cost, and make informed decisions with reliable data. The TrustEd Apps pledge gives all of us a collective and powerful voice to benefit every student, teacher, institution, and edtech supplier. See the leading organizations that have endorsed the pledge.
Show Your Commitment to Plug-and-Play Integration
1EdTech has provided significant support for our district as we’ve worked to develop a digital ecosystem that ensures high levels of interoperability and digital privacy. It’s exciting to know that the Georgia Department of Education is scaling this support to districts across the state.
TrustEd Apps Certification and Self-Assessment Rubrics
Educators have enough to juggle without figuring out if a particular software will plug-and-play with the rest of their digital ecosystem. Product certification and self-assessment rubrics, backed by the 1EdTech community, help streamline, scale, and save valuable time when designing the educational experience to meet the unique needs of teachers and learners.
1EdTech consistently demonstrates its value and trust by enabling timely integrations and interoperability with our customers. Getting our products certified is how we show commitment to secure and interoperable digital learning ecosystems.
Certification is a Win-Win for All of Us
For institutions at all levels, 1EdTech vetting and certification gives you more choice in purchasing decisions, ensures seamless product integrations, and provides a secure and trusted exchange of data among learning tools, applications, and programs.
For suppliers, your ongoing participation in the 1EdTech community and our certification process is the fastest and most reliable way to achieve product integrations. It shows your commitment to establishing the next generation of education and learning.
TrustEd Apps Self-Assessment Rubrics
