Big Deal Media and edWeb.net, two organizations with large, vibrant communities of educators, are partnering to help education companies and non-profits reach today’s most tech-savvy and connected teachers, administrators, and librarians.

Big Deal Media hosts a professional learning community on edWeb – Amazing Resources for Educators – that helps educators learn about innovative ways to improve teaching and learning. The community is an online forum for educators to learn about top quality resources, grants, and professional development opportunities.

edWeb.net and Big Deal Media invite companies and non-profit organizations to sponsor webinars in the Amazing Resources for Educators community. Organizations including WNET, Shutterfly, and PBS LearningMedia have sponsored webinars in the community with an average registration of 600 educators per webinar. Sponsors receive a promotion package from edWeb.net and Big Deal Media to reach a large and exceptional list of influential educators.

Sponsoring a webinar with edWeb.net and Big Deal Media makes it easy to host a valuable professional learning event with real-time collaboration between presenters and attendees. Sponsors are able to directly engage with educators for a deeper dive into their needs. Educators receive a CE certificate for attending the live webinars or for viewing a recording. The sponsoring organizations also receive high-quality leads for their programs and services.

Lisa Schmucki, founder and CEO of edWeb.net commented, “Marilyn Schutz, the publisher of Big Deal Media, has been such a great supporter of our efforts to help educators share information about valuable resources. We are delighted to be able to combine forces to help organizations reach a large community of highly responsive educators.”
