iSchoolConnect Technologies assists students wishing to study abroad

Over the last few years, there has been an incredible increase in demand for international education. The absence of reliable information on overseas education, however, is a deterrent for seekers. As a result, Ashish Fernando, a software developer, took a chance and launched iSchoolConnect Technologies in 2017 after his MBA with the goal of democratizing the worldwide admissions market for graduate and undergraduate programs through the effective use of AI.

This edtech startup aims to become the world's most popular student mobility solution, with a vision to make the admissions process worldwide accessible and hassle-free for all students. iSchoolConnect updated its technical platform to conduct proctoring services at scale. Since its launch in March 2020, the new iSC platform has helped educational institutions, technology and service providers, and enterprises proctor over 4 million tests.

The startup has acquired a host of milestones in just a few years of business. It now serves ten million students globally and offers the most cost-effective and innovative alternative for linking students and institutions around the world. In just four years, the company has grown from 5 to 200 employees. In 2020, iSchoolConnect partnered with Google Cloud to improve the customer experience of its AI-powered platform, allowing for more efficient and quicker higher education admissions procedures.

ExamSoft, a Turnitin owned software based assessment platform, purchased iSchoolConnect's proctoring and assessment technology in 2021 to ensure exam integrity and streamline the assessment process. The company has also built a 150-thousand-student community and partnered with more than 200 Indian universities.

The founder's foresight in recognizing the potential of AI in EdTech and establishing a strong position within the industry at the right time, combined with the technology's resilience and agility to thrive during the pandemic, helped iSchoolConnect become one of the most in-demand overseas education consultants.
