Edu-Tech Academic Solutions
Profile: Edu-Tech is a unique concept in educational technology support and management. We focus solely on independent schools and consider ourselves an educational services company focused on technology solutions, not a technology sales, support, or consulting company. Many technology service organizations provide support with a “break-fix” mentality. They rush in, make repairs and move on to the next customer. Through years of experience, we have found that this is not the best solution for effective support in an educational environment. As a result, we have built our organization around an entirely new model. It is a design that provides our customers with trained technicians and seasoned educators that have the technical ability, teaching experience, and communication skills to work closely with teachers, staff and students in an independent school environment. Our strategy has and always will remain consistent with our company philosophy, “Empowering Independent Schools.”

This treatment, occurring at home and in the youth’s community, leads to significant improvements in symptoms and functional impairment and impactful, lasting change. In fact, 90% of InStride Health graduates experience a reduction in anxiety following two months of treatment and 98% of graduates experienced overall clinical improvement. The program delivers time-bound, comprehensive treatment that engages the patient and their support system (pediatricians, schools, and family members), as appropriate.
