Performance for Education
From our combined experience of over 30 years of supporting school and business IT teams, it has become abundantly clear that the large investments in technology need to be supported and managed by knowledgeable IT teams.
Technology is one of the fastest moving industries schools have ever engaged with and without continuous training it is easy for teams and individuals to be left behind.
We created the Ed ITK accreditation to support both the organisation as well as the individual. By staying up to date, the individual feels better in their role and the organisation realizes greater returns on their technological investments.
Performance for Education was founded in 2021 and has since grown into renowned and reliable accreditation provider.
