About Education Partners
Microsoft is committed to providing technology, tools, programs and solutions that enable lifelong learners to realise their full potential. 
 
We envision the world itself as an enriched learning environment, where learners in the classroom, on the job, and at home easily connect with each other and with relevant information. At Microsoft, we call this vision the Connected Learning Community.

To bring about this vision, Microsoft helps create learning opportunities for today's students and tomorrow's knowledge workers by:
Partnering with other innovators in education and technology
Nurturing communities that connect educators with each other and with resources for using technology to enhance their teaching
Funding research and programs that provide access to technology and training to prepare students for tomorrow's careers
Developing powerful technology to help educators individualize learning plans, to encourage students to collaborate, and to meet institutions' needs to track and analyze information more effectively
Our intensive support of education initiatives worldwide and our executive team's depth of experience demonstrate Microsoft's commitment to education. Our involvement in the learning community gives us a real-world grounding in issues facing educators, administrators, policy makers, students, and their parents today.

We're eager to work together to make the Connected Learning Community come alive.
