Stay On Top Of Google and Microsoft Updates Alongside Your Peers
Join a forward-thinking, digital community of K12 IT admins across North America working alongside our edtech experts to navigate changes, updates, challenges and solutions in their Google Workspace for Education and Microsoft Education environments.
Access Invaluable Content and Experience-Based Guidance
Empower your IT admins to curate the most effective digital infrastructure while expanding their capacity and easing their workload. The CDW Education Collaborative invites schools, small and large, to glean from the expertise of our consultants and share their experiences with other members in a way that would otherwise be difficult, if not impossible, to find anywhere else. Whether you’re looking for an update of Google Workspace for Education, have a question about Microsoft Education, need guidance on setting up DLP, or are wondering about a specific video conferencing system, you can feel confident that someone in this community will have a thought or an answer.
"The Collaborative has connected us with school systems facing the same questions [and] challenges that we [are]. Having the ability to discuss [these] openly with other school systems has been invaluable to us."
