Tech Education Collaborative

The Technology Education Collaborative empowers everyday people to become informed users of the technology embedded in their daily lives.

We help people better understand the tech that surrounds them on a daily basis. TEC does this with an emphasis on practical application by hosting 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 they can use to learn, discover and play.
