Introducing
Simply put, this is professional development and intentional community support built specifically with Educational Technologists in mind.
Our Mission
Reclaim Hosting has been providing edtech infrastructure for higher ed for almost 10 years. Now we want to work more directly with the people on the ground and build a broader professional development community for instructional technologists. These platforms are only as interesting as the people behind them, and it’s our goal to create a structure to help edtechs explore, question, learn, and build the future of teaching and learning together. We want to be a niche support hub and learning community for curious minds and creative tinkerers, whether you have a background in Instructional Design, advanced IT Support, or sit somewhere in between like most Instructional Technologists. Join as we explore what’s possible.

Happening Now
Instructional Tech Discord Server
We’ve built a community space that will be open year around for sharing resources and ideas, prompting larger discussions, and even enjoying impromptu hangouts. This will be a central hub for virtual events and asynchronous trainings, connecting with Domains PenPals, and more. This buzzing edtech space is growing every day and we hope you’ll be apart of it!
Let's Get Started
Mark your calendars! Here’s what’s happening now:
Reclaim Hosting will spend the month of December and part of January covering relevant applications in an Open Source Media Ecosystem. Learn how to set up, administer and integrate several open source media tools, including the web conferencing software Jitsi Meet, the streaming tool Owncast, the video cloud platform PeerTube, and the web radio software Azuracast. These sessions will be scheduled weekly over the course of 6 weeks for live, interactive sessions and the videos will be available on-demand immediately after the fact.
This event is free to attend. Join the Reclaim Hosting Discord Community and check out reclaimed.tech for more information.
