EdTech Awards Validates Potential of Micro-Cloud Technology in the Global Education Sector

Critical Links’ innovative C3 micro-cloud architecture recognized for potential to transform education anywhere in the world

Princeton, NJ – Jun 22, 2020 –  Critical Links, the leader in micro-cloud solutions for e-learning, today announced that C3 Micro Cloud has been selected as a “Cool Tool” and “Trendsetter” finalist for the 2020 Edtech Awards.

The EdTech Awards is the largest and most competitive awards program in the field of education technology throughout the world and feature the best by shining a spotlight on cool tools, inspiring leaders, and innovative trendsetters across various educational sectors. Products and people are recognized for outstanding contributions in transforming education through technology to enrich the lives of learners everywhere.

The C3 Micro-Cloud is a self-contained, cloud enabled environment that provides a rich learning environment with digital content, e-Learning resources, and learning management system even if the school does not always have an upstream connection to the Internet. Content, in the form of texts, videos, learning games and other resources can be centrally curated in the C3 Cloud Control portal by those responsible for curriculum, and distributed to any authorized C3 Micro Cloud, regardless of where it is, whenever a network link becomes available.

According to industry research, millions of students can’t reach the global knowledge and resources that e-learning can provide, which makes this a global issue. Critical Links, with its C3 Micro-Cloud, is changing that by enabling children to have access to a digital education environment in even the most remote places of our planet, regardless of internet connectivity or infrastructure. This solution is benefiting more than thousands of schools worldwide, reaching more than 5 million students across over 55 countries, and is a critical tool being used to bridge the digital divide in education.

“We are pleased that our C3 Micro-Cloud solution has been recognized by the EdTech Awards as a Cool Tool and a Trendsetter product,” said Charles Foley, Chairman of Critical Links. “Access to digital technology helps these students to succeed in education, which will set the stage for their future lives. We believe that, with C3 Micro Cloud, we can make the difference for millions of students all over the world by opening for them the doors to a limitless world of knowledge”.
