Instructure announces exclusive strategic partnership with K16 Solutions
Instructure, a leading learning ecosystem provider and maker of Canvas LMS, has announced an exclusive strategic partnership with K16 Solutions, a specialist in higher education automated data management.
The partnership focuses on migration services for institutions moving from legacy LMS solutions to Canvas. Under the agreement, Instructure has secured exclusive access to K16’ s LMS migration services, strengthening support for organizations transitioning to Canvas as they modernize digital learning infrastructure.
As institutions reassess teaching and learning systems, many are moving beyond incremental upgrades to legacy platforms and making broader structural changes to meet evolving learner needs. The partnership reflects growing momentum toward Canvas and reinforces Instructure’ s commitment to supporting faster, more secure transitions to a flexible learning ecosystem. with K16 Solutions gives customers a clear path to Canvas – protecting critical course content while moving forward with confidence and speed.”
The partnership comes as Instructure continues to see demand for integrated learning ecosystems across K-12, higher education and workforce training, with institutions prioritizing connectivity, continuity and long-term innovation.
Institutions and organisations are moving beyond legacy LMS solutions and choosing platforms that can better meet the needs of the new learner.
Sam Yaghoubi, SVP Partnerships K16 Solutions, said:“ K16 Solutions is proud to expand our exclusive relationship with Instructure through this strategic partnership. As institutions move away from competitive LMS solutions, they need a migration approach that protects content integrity, minimises disruption and supports both immediate transition needs and long-term strategic goals. We see that momentum firsthand, as most of the institutions we support in LMS migrations are choosing Canvas as their next learning platform. Together with Instructure, we are helping institutions transition to Canvas with the expertise, continuity and confidence they need.”
Canvas serves as the foundation of a modern learning ecosystem, enabling institutions to connect tools, integrate emerging technologies and support evolving teaching and learning requirements. •
By automating complex migration processes and preserving course structures, assessments and content integrity, the collaboration reduces disruption and minimizes one of the biggest barriers to switching LMS platforms. With support from K16, institutions can focus on improving learning outcomes rather than managing technical transitions.
Kevin Martin, Vice President Sector Strategy Instructure, said:“ Institutions and organisations are moving beyond legacy LMS solutions and choosing platforms that can better meet the needs of the new learner. Switching platforms can be complex and disruptive, especially when institutions need to protect content integrity, maintain continuity and keep teaching and learning moving forward.
