HENRY VELOZA, Account Executive of Lenovo
Educational Collaborators has helped transform our teaching and learning at our school. They put a comprehensive plan together to help meet our educational goals. Every Educational Collaborator team member assigned to our school is a guru in their field.
Working with Educational Collaborators has been a tremendously valuable experience for our school district. As part of a comprehensive school technology needs assessment, EC spoke with every member of our Educational Technology department and district leadership team to gain a deep understanding of our current operations. Utilizing that information along with our vision for digital learning, EC was able to provide our team a comprehensive plan tailored to our goals and resources designed to maximize effectiveness. We recommend their services to any school district looking to shift from a print to digital environment.
Educational Collaborators is more than just a consulting firm. It is a community of high caliber educators with deep experience who deliver customized work. I know that I can call upon my fellow collaborators to help creatively and efficiently tackle any challenge. EC is a full-service consulting group that can address the complex needs of schools and I thoroughly enjoy working my colleagues at EC because they truly understand schools and seek to find the best personalized solutions for clients
