About Edmodo

Our story

Knowledge is more than facts and figures.
We help transform it into opportunities.

Founded in Chicago, Illinois, when two school district employees set out to bridge the gap between how students live their lives and how they learn in school, Edmodo was created to bring education into a 21st century environment.

Today, Edmodo is based in San Mateo, California. Thanks to those who guided and supported us in the beginning, we're now the number one K-12 social learning network in the world, dedicated to connecting all learners with the people and resources they need to reach their full potential.

We're moving to a world where you can look at specific experiences and specific students and understand what's working for particular types of learners. Empowering teachers is the only path to getting better outcomes.

— Nic Borg, Co-Founder and Chief Product Officer

Our values

Technology is creating a whole new set of rules.
We believe principles should never change.

Because Edmodo is used by teachers and students, we hold ourselves to very high standards. Our values not only define our company culture; they characterize the product features trusted in classrooms around the world.

We're just getting started

Creating connections is just the beginning; we want to do more than impact outcomes. We want to empower learners, on our network and around the world.

We're all in this together

Everything we do impacts everyone on our team and inside every classroom. So we make sure we're reliable, collaborative, and armed with the best intentions.

We thrive on feedback

Whether we're doing great, or can do better, we like to know where we stand. It helps us identify and learn from each lesson, and celebrate every success.

We're obsessed with educators

Because teachers helped us realize our full potential, we try to emulate them in everything we do. We think critically, listen patiently, and speak openly.

We love learning

No matter how much we know, there's always room to grow. To create opportunities for success, we develop tools that personalize learning and encourage growth.

We believe less is more

And thrive on doing more with less. We're resourceful enough to be creative, and honest enough to keep things straightforward and reliable.

Our team

Communities are made up of individuals.

Every day, you're on the front lines, dedicated to making a difference. Meet the people behind the scenes, dedicated to supporting you every step of the way.
