Bridging the Digital Gap
EdTech Boost NM Style

Created by NMRECA, the EdTech Boost NM program empowers New Mexico educators to tailor their technological professional development, promoting the integration of advanced technology in classrooms and enhancing student engagement and achievement.

​

Since its launch in October 2023, EdTech Boost NM has enrolled 310 educators from 56 school districts and charter schools, forming the state's largest Technology Integration Professional Learning Community. In partnership with Edge U Badges, educators can access over 260 professional development badges, ranging from 15 minutes to 15 hours, to address their specific needs and interests. On average, completing a point for an EdgeU Badges badge takes about 15 minutes, so earning 4 points typically takes about an hour.
