ENTER THE COMMUNITY

We are a global community by us and for us.

We are better when we come together as a community. Higher ed tech managers can feel silo’d in their institutions. By supporting one another, surrounding ourselves with likeminded professionals who understand our daily challenges, we bring better solutions to our campuses. In turn, we improve our own lives. HETMA is truly for our people and by our people: AV Teams, Tech Managers, Instructional Designers, Programmers & Engineers, AV Designers, Support Teams, Manufacturer and Integrator Channel Partners, and All Who Work in Higher Ed!

Something for everyone.

We are committed to providing our members with diverse opportunities to connect with one another, learn from one another,
and be a voice that creates change. That's why membership will always be free for our higher ed members.
