Using Technology Better is a Google, Microsoft, and Apple professional development partner working extensively throughout Australia and New Zealand.
UTB was founded by Mike Reading whilst he was teaching in a high school. Mike was so frustrated with the type and quality of technology training that was being offered to him as a teacher, (they would show you how a tool worked, but not how to use the tool to improve pedagogy or student outcomes), so he set about upskilling himself and sharing this with others.
The UTB team of facilitators have been hand picked for their amazing content knowledge and applied skills in the classroom, but also for their facilitation style. We live by the motto ‘No more boring training sessions!’
UTB are highly sought after to run STEAM and Digital technology sessions in schools. Having professional development partnerships with many of the major STEAM brands, you can rest assured that your next training will be fun, hands on,relevant and customised to your needs and the needs and your students.
