I’d like to share the positive impact Codio has had on my course. The DWF rate dropped significantly in both the Spring and Summer semesters. The behavioral insights feature has been particularly helpful for me and the teaching team in understanding student engagement — allowing us to better mentor those who need support and identify those attempting to shortcut assignments or labs by copying and pasting code.

With Codio, I get more time back because I have fewer logistical, time-consuming tasks. I’ve also noticed that students are far more comfortable getting started. Codio enabled me to build a course best calibrated to my students’ success.

Codio is the most effective solution I've seen for sharing a combination of textbook and complex auto-graded programming labs.

Armando Fox
Professor of Computer Science at UC Berkeley

Since adopting Codio, we’ve been able to provide a flexible & powerful basis for teaching subjects involving programming exercises, including coding classes and machine-learning/AI/data science-focused courseware.

Sr. Manager, Instructional Technologies, eCornell

There is tremendous potential to expand the use of Codio at SNHU. We're in the process of rebuilding all tech-related undergraduate and graduate programs, as well as moving into the data science space, and Codio can support our effective course delivery in all of these fields.

{GitHub} trusts Codio for the classroom. Here's why.

When GitHub sought a commercial partner to help educators use GitHub more effectively in the classroom, they chose Codio to provide over 500,000 students and 3,000 instructors with seamless access to managed environments, auto-graded assessments, and a fully Git-native learning experience.

GitHub has always been committed to giving the next generation of developers the tools they need to learn, build, and grow. Our partnership with Codio is a natural extension of that commitment, ensuring that instructors have access to purpose-built, enterprise-grade tools for assignment management, autograding, and student engagement that integrate seamlessly with GitHub's AI-powered coding tools, so educators can keep their focus where it belongs: on their students.

FAQs

Help Center

Is this an official GitHub partnership?

Yes. GitHub has selected Codio as its exclusive commercial platform partner to enhance your use of GitHub in the classroom.

Do I lose my content if I stop using GitHub Classroom?

No. Your content lives in Git repositories that you control. You're changing the course delivery layer—not the source material.

Can I keep using GitHub?

Absolutely. Codio is built for Git-centric teaching. Your repositories stay on GitHub; Codio provides the course delivery, grading, and student experience layer.

What about autograding?

Yes, you can migrate your grading logic to Codio and keep your tests running exactly as before. Plus, you gain access to a wider range of assessment types: partial credit, I/O matching, multi-file projects, and LLM-powered rubric grading for code quality and style.

How long does setup actually take?

For a typical course with standard autograding, most instructors complete setup and configuration in a few hours over a week or two. Complex setups with custom grading scripts may take longer, but our support team and workshops are there to help you through the tricky parts.

Will my TAs need retraining?

Codio's interface is intuitive, and TAs familiar with GitHub will find the transition straightforward. We provide TA-specific training resources, and most TAs are comfortable within their first grading session.

What is the cost?

For institutions that teach at scale, Codio offers a range of flexible, affordable, and discounted license options for GitHub Classroom users who migrate to Codio.

Institutions that sign an institution-pay agreement with Codio can receive 50 free standard Codio learner licenses for an initial 12-month period.
