About Respondus

Respondus is a leading developer of online testing applications for higher education and K-12. Thousands of universities, K-12 districts, publishers, and testing centers use our applications to deliver hundreds of millions of assessments annually.


Why join us? Our work matters – assessments help educators know what students are learning. It’s at the beginning, middle, and end of the education process.


Respondus is a growing, profitable, 20-year-old business that is laser-focused on customers.
