2023 in Review: A Year to Remember

Thanks to your incredible support and partnership, 2023 was a year we will never forget. It was marked by innovation, expanded service offerings, collaboration, and continued success. Our shared achievements underscored our mission of moving people forward in their professional journeys. One accomplishment we were particularly proud of was the launch of our new Customer Success Resource Hub, which was designed to enhance your experience with our solutions. In addition, our acquisition of Examity put us in a great position to provide our clients with offerings that are unmatched in the industry. We are really proud of how seamless the transition was, bringing together two great companies into one.
