Each fall since 2012, Moran Technology Consulting (MTC) has sponsored the EDUCAUSE Awards Program as an EDUCAUSE Gold Partner. This program provides four major awards to exemplary higher education IT leaders who are transforming the strategic role of information technology across higher education while tackling today’s ever-changing realities. MTC was pleased to join EDUCAUSE in celebrating another outstanding year of nominees and recipients at the annual conference in Denver, CO this past fall, where we had the chance to attend the awards program and spend time with the recipients and their guests at the awards reception (shown above).
MTC would like to extend our congratulations to the 2022 EDUCAUSE Award recipients, each of whom has demonstrated exceptional leadership and accomplishments that model the best of the profession and advance the common good.

In addition to the awards’ reflection of significant professional accomplishment and inspiration for others, recipients also received complimentary EDUCAUSE registrations for themselves and a guest, financial support towards travel expenses (if applicable), recognition and honors as an award recipient during the annual conference, and an opportunity to present a session during the conference. MTC Senior Partner and CEO Charlie Moran said, “We have sponsored this award every year since 2012 because as a professional services firm focused on serving higher education IT, we have had the privilege of working directly with some of the best leaders in higher education and it’s important to us to see outstanding leadership in the IT space get the same kind of recognition as other areas of the academy. Back when EDUCAUSE announced this sponsorship opportunity we knew immediately it was the perfect fit for our firm since it gave us a chance to be part of supporting and acknowledging those great IT leaders. We’ve enjoyed being the sponsor and getting to know each year’s award winners ever since.”
Congratulations again to the 2022 recipients! We wish everyone a healthy and happy start to the new year, and we’ll look forward to seeing our many colleagues and clients again at EDUCAUSE 2023.
