URGENT – Sorry for any inconvenience in submitting your application. The technical fault has now been rectified and we will be accepting applications until Monday 21 September, 2015, 6:00pm.

Now is the time to nominate for an EdTechSA award for 2015.

Every year EdTechSA has the pleasure of recognising educators across our state who have contributed to the leadership and implementation of best practice in learning with ICT across the curriculum, or about IT as a discipline.

Are you are seeking to extend your participation in a dynamic professional learning network for the benefit of your students?

One sure way to do both of these things would be to receive a EdTechSA award! As an award winner, your knowledge and skills will be recognised by a panel of respected peers and you will open up new professional networking and leadership opportunities.

EdTechSA has three awards to recognise the contribution of individual members to the advocacy of ICT in education. The three awards are:

EdTechSA Leader of the Year

EdTechSA Educator of the Year

EdTechSA Leading Light
