Technology for Education Consortium (TEC) is a non-profit organization founded in 2015, dedicated to enhancing transparency, efficiency, and collaboration in K-12 schools for evaluating and purchasing edtech products and services. By convening over 100 districts representing approximately 5.5 million K-12 students, TEC facilitates data sharing that accelerates market efficiency. The organization addresses the challenges of unreliable purchasing information and archaic procurement policies, enabling districts to learn from each other's experiences and negotiate better deals. TEC's mission is to empower school districts to improve educational outcomes, reduce costs, and support the development of new educational technologies.
