Bringing Agile Execution to Educational Innovation
Edvizion was founded in 2023 by Michael Vizdos (Certified Scrum Trainer® and long-time Strategic Advisor) and Kenton Vizdos (Software Engineer & Architect) on a simple premise: education shouldn't have to wait years for digital tools that actually work.
By pairing 35+ years in software delivery with modern, full-stack software engineering, we help educational leaders turn complex operational challenges into working technology — and, more often, into a team that can keep improving it after we leave.
Our story: Bridging practice & platform
For over a decade, we worked inside charter school districts and educational organizations, seeing firsthand where administrative overhead, disconnected systems, and slow software rollouts pulled focus away from student success.
We founded Edvizion™ to solve that problem directly. We did that by building the software ourselves, inside the district, alongside the people who had to use it. That is how we learned the thing we now get hired for: whether a tool gets adopted has less to do with the software than with how the decision to use it got made. Edvizion is not taking on contracted software development for schools today — what we do now is consulting, mentoring and training. The one exception is a product, not a build: Attendance Logs is open to a limited pilot with a small number of Arizona online schools. For EdTech companies we also build alongside your team. We don't build for districts directly. We build with the companies that serve them.

What drives us
- We have been inside a district, not adjacent to one. Michael has advised the district since 2014, sitting with the leadership team that has to live with the decisions — eleven engagements are written up here, with dates.
- The credentials are checkable, not asserted. Michael is a Certified Scrum Trainer® with the Scrum Alliance, co-created its Certified Agile Leader: K-12 certification, and has published Implementing Scrum weekly since 2006.
- Built for how school teams actually work — designed around a registrar’s afternoon and a district cabinet’s decision, not adapted from generic corporate tools.
