Tech Education Collaborative

The Technology Education Collaborative empowers everyday people to become informed users of today's extraordinary technology.

We help people better understand the tech that surrounds them on a daily basis. TEC does this through practical application by hosting in-person, hands on events ranging from Right to Repair workshops, Privacy meetups and tech field trips and demos. Our agreement with the Advanced Cyber Systems Lab at GateWay Community College helps us give the general public hands-on access to advanced technologies from 3D printers to a podcasting studio people can use to learn, discover and play.

December Events

Our Right to Repair Workshop and Privacy PIE meetup are taking a holiday break, but both will return in January!

HTTPS: Holiday TEC Talks Podcast Special

The rules were simple: Money was no object, it could be ANYTHING - from the military catalogue, NASA, or just Best Buy - but it had to exist in real life and incorporate some kind of computing power. The Answers. Were. Awesome. 

We had a blast making this episode and hope you enjoy listening to it - and get some last minute gift ideas!

Special thanks to all our guests, some of whom had no idea they’d be on a podcast that day.
