Educa to provide revolutionary technology for home based childcare providers

Wellington, December 5th, 2012 – Educa, an online E-Portfolio system specifically designed for New Zealand Early Childhood Education Providers, teachers, parents and children today settled on a preferred supplier agreement with the NZ Home Base Childcare Association.

The relationship between the Wellington based online software provider and the Association will mean that members of the New Zealand Home Based Childcare Association are offered the benefit of using ICT to assist in providing quality home based early childhood education to New Zealand children.

Using Educa software, teachers are able to record, update and share learning stories in a secured online environment – meaning that communication between teachers and parents is significantly improved.
