EduGeek.net and RTS Technology Solutions launch new partnership at BETT 2010
Edugeek.net is the prominent online destination for school technical staff to discuss the unique issues faced in education environments. Since June 2005 the site has been serving the IT community, offering a forum for those in the sector to share knowledge and experience.
In November of last year EduGeek reached the 20,000 user milestone, which according to the site’s creator Chris Byers means they should have “pretty much have every single UK secondary on board, and a large chunk of the primarys”. The site is fast “becoming one of the most popular tech sites in the world” with many US schools and districts joining up.
In recognition of EduGeek’s important role in the education sector RTS have begun sponsoring the service. We hope that sponsorship such as ours will help many others benefit from the advice and support of the EduGeek community.
We are launching our partnership at this week’s BETT show, where both companies will be engaging with the community face-to-face. Although this is our first year exhibiting at the show it will be the fourth time Chris has operated EduGeek’s Technical Help Point. “In addition to helping visitors match their technical needs with exhibitors at BETT and answering their technical questions, we will also have a wide range of information and best practices for technical support staff, such as Green IT and Virtualisation”.
Find out how the partnership between EduGeek and RTS can help solve technical issues within your school. Visit the Technical Help Point (stand G89) and RTS Technology Solutions (stand W45).

Gradwell and RTS allow schools to get the most from available resources by providing flexible and cost beneficial VoIP technology, making school administration and pastoral care much easier than was previously possible.
