Dear Instructure Community,
As 2025 comes to a close, many of us do so carrying the weight of a difficult year. Across the United States, shootings in high schools and universities have shaken our sense of safety and around the world we've been reminded how fragile our communities can be.
At InstructureCon, we reaffirmed our mission to set potential in motion. We believe deeply that potential can only thrive in environments where people feel safe, supported, and seen. Safety is not separate from learning. It is the foundation that makes learning possible.
And yet, even in the face of hardship, we’ve also seen extraordinary resilience. Educators continue to show up for students. Institutions continue to care deeply for their communities. Learners continue to reach for their futures! That perseverance gives us hope, and it strengthens our commitment to stand beside you.
As the year comes to a close, thank you for the trust you place in Instructure. We do not take it lightly. It’s a responsibility we carry with humility and purpose as we work to support you in the work that matters most.
We’re also excited to share a recent update to our Community, designed to create a more welcoming, personalized, and connected experience for you. It’s one important way we’re continuing to listen, learn, and invest in how we better support you today and into the year ahead.
Wishing you a peaceful holiday season, moments of rest, and renewed hope for the year ahead.
With gratitude,
Rachel
