At Blackboard, our vision is “Everyone Educated.” We know providing access to
educational resources opens doors for societies influencing innovation,
entrepreneurship and tomorrow’s leaders. A powerful example of this is the
partnership, led by former Columbian President Álvaro Uribe, between Blackboard
and Servicio Nacional de Aprendizaje (SENA), the national learning service of
Columbia, to bring online education to all Columbian citizens.
