“Being a passionate education leader, I have always been in contact with other leaders globally, building a fantastic network that has helped me explore the issues they face when it comes to digital learning. From my experience, I can tell that badly integrated technology will simply increase overhead costs and drop pupil performance and teacher satisfaction. My motivation to build The Edutec Alliance was to help learning institutions turn this around, and succeed with a solid educational technology strategy that makes them enjoy the immense benefits that technology can bring.”

Glaucia Rosas
The EduTec Alliance  Co-Founder

“Over 20 years ago I founded a consulting company that served large multinationals. The EduTec Alliance is my way of trying to do a bit of good in the world by making my experience and methods available to schools – they need them just as much as the big boys. Our aim is to try and commoditise these services and package them for education, sharing experiences between schools and giving them access to a knowledge base in order stop them making the same basic mistakes over and over again. All the approaches we’re using are exactly those which I developed over the last 30 years to make the delivery of corporate projects fail-safe – it feels good to share them.”
