Professional Education

The Institute for Excellence in Sales & Business Development (IES&BD) has awarded Blackboard with one of four prestigious awards it presents just once a year.  We are proud to be the recipient of the Excellence in Customer Partnering Award.

As IES&BD points out, these awards are often referred to as the “Oscars” for corporate and organizational sales and & business development operational excellence, so this is quite an honor! So what exactly is it that we are being recognized for?  Customer partnering is when we take our relationships with our customers to the next level.  It’s a form of collaboration that combines Blackboard solutions with the customer’s specific needs to deliver the ultimate results in development, integration, and ultimately, OUTCOMES!

If you want to learn more about Blackboard’s customer partnerships, look no further than our work with Watson Pharmaceuticals.  This case study is a great representation of how we have closely worked with our customer to develop a customized solution that exceeded what they thought could be done with any learning solution. Thank you to IES&BD for recognizing our work in this important category!
