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).

We’re off to BETT!
We have visited the BETT (British Education and Training Technology) show several times, and have always been impressed by the quality and variety of educational technology on offer. Our notebooks usually take a hammering under the weight of ideas.
Where once we were simply visitors, this year’s show sees us exhibiting for the first time. We have secured a prime spot (W45, on the west of the first floor) and are working double time to produce a fantastic offering.
Previously research and idea generation were the focus of our visits. However, our technology solutions have developed to such an extent that we want to tell more people about them. As BETT is the largest show of its kind in the world we could think of no better platform.
Not only will RTS staff be present, but we are lucky enough to be taking with us several friends from a selection of suppliers. They are all experts in their respective technical fields and will be on hand to help answer any questions you may have.
If you’re heading to BETT we would love it if you popped by and said hello. As an added incentive, we’re planning to have a few treats on-stand for our visitors.
See you there, January 13-16th.
