Thu, 27 Apr 2006, 15:32:00 EST Edited by Debra Tone    
REDMOND, Wash., April 27 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) -- Respondus received the highest customer satisfaction score among 44 higher education e-learning vendors that were included in a report by The Alliance for Higher Education Competitiveness (A-HEC). The report is based on survey responses from leaders of Internet-supported learning initiatives in higher education.A-HEC, a non-profit research and educational organization, analyzes trends and customer satisfaction in higher education Internet-supported learning. Their findings indicate that there is a "robust market" for third party quizzing and assessment tools, with adoption occurring in 31% of all Internet-learning initiatives. Of the nine areas analyzed, the report states that "[t]he category of third party quizzing and assessment tools scored highest in satisfaction with Respondus showing a clear lead in market share and the highest overall score of all products and services."

On a 5-point scale, the assessment category had an overall rating of 3.96, by far the highest of all categories analyzed for Internet-learning initiatives.
