Teachers come with a range of knowledge and computer skills as well as a variety of devices available to them in their classrooms. We warmly accept teachers who have a desire to grow and participate together in Kingdom work. The only equipment requirement is to bring a personal device such as a laptop, Chromebook and/or tablet.

The cost of the workshops is $1250 for seven energetic, content-rich sessions.

Title money, line-item budget, angel donors and fundraisers are some of the ways schools have paid for this program in the past. Many administrators have increased professional development monies in their budgets to include TEC21 as a component of their school’s technology plan. Additionally, some districts provide schools with scholarships to help subsidize the cost of the program.

Recognizing the time needed to receive tuition payments or outside funding, payment for the 2023/2024 workshop sessions is not due until September 15, 2023.
