TORONTO, April 16, 2024 /CNW/ - Xello, the award-winning K-12 college, career and future readiness program, was recognized as a 2024 SIIA CODiE Award Finalist in both the Best College and Career Readiness Solution and the Best Customer Experience in Ed Tech categories. CODiE Award Finalists represent the best products, services and people in the Education and Business Technology Industries. The SIIA CODiE Awards are the industry's only peer-recognized awards program.
"Being recognized as a CODiE Award Finalist in both of these categories is a tremendous honor, as we have been dedicated to helping students learn, explore and grow, both in and out of the classroom, for almost 30 years," said Matt McQuillen, CEO and Co-Founder, Xello. "Every student benefits from opportunities to create a successful future through understanding themselves, exploring the options they have available, and building the skills necessary to make their vision for the future become a reality. At Xello, we help students craft a vision for their future and develop a commitment to pursue that path, giving them a greater chance for future success."
Through the Xello platform, students in grades K-12 can build self-knowledge and explore options beyond high school. Using interest-based assessments, they are matched with careers that best reflect their interests, while educators monitor and support student progress and college applications. Built-in curriculum and reflective activities help students build social-emotional skills and knowledge that future employers value.
"We strive to create an exceptional experience for our customers through an award-winning design that engages and inspires students of all interests, skills and abilities – and we work hard to ensure that the educators leading those students have the tools they need to successfully implement our program," McQuillen said. "We recognize that within a complex network of relationships – between students and their families, teachers and school staff, colleges and community partners and employers – we must always prioritize our customers' experiences and give them a voice in our continuous improvement."
