2024-05-17 10:00 - 11:00
Since the launch of the beta program for ReclaimPress many in our community have enjoyed seeing not only a new hosting offer for WordPress but also the unique visuals that accompany our newest offering.
Created by our long-time collaborator and friend Bryan Mathers, of Visual Thinkery, we have been working hard to bring you a visual concept that truly captures what makes this new venture so special… and why you should get involved!

Join us live on May 17 at 10am ET / 3pm GMT

What is ReclaimPress?
ReclaimPress is a cloud platform that is specifically tailored to hosting WordPress sites. It provides your site with dedicated, fast, and scalable hosting at an unbeatable price, all the while living in an easy-to-use dashboard.
We’re taking the power and flexibility of Reclaim Cloud and adding a simple-to-use, WordPress-optimized management interface. We think this combo will be a compelling one, a real chocolate and peanut butter situation, but we need your help and feedback!

How can I join the beta program?
The hosting experience is simple, fast, and rock-solid, and we are already using it for many projects, including our own high-traffic public-facing sites (like reclaimhosting.com). So we are offering you the chance to join the beta program for Reclaim Press whilst we are still working through some bugs related to the ReclaimPress Dashboard and user interface, which we will keep documented on the signup page.
If you give it a spin and have feedback, make sure to reach out!

Reclaim TV: OER Preview! Reclaiming #Edtech4life in Open Education
2024-03-22 10:00 - 11:00
How do you make innovation work when the day job as an (edtech) educator gets ever busier? Where do you find not only solutions to practical problems but someone who speaks your language? When your day job is largely edtech-focused and your focus is in practice, not policy or research, it can be challenging to find communities of practice that advocate for open – open in the sense of software and licencing, but also open in the sense that the community is welcoming, open to new ideas, and open to change.
Over the past 10 years our organisation has built a growing community of practice on the back of our day to day business activities. Yes, we are a small commercial company, but we bring a lot of expertise of working in Higher Ed to the table and we walk the walk of open education.
In this presentation we’ll share practical approaches inspired by communities like Equity Unbound and the ALT Open Education Special Interest Group to connect with educators and edtechs from across the US and internationally sharing practice via community chats, micro courses, live streams and radio shows. We’ll share lessons learnt from running a hub for professional development every day of the year, a place in which open educators can engage in anything from trouble-shooting wordpress installations to tinkering with next generation tools. We offer a safe space to explore with peers, to play, to fail and make new connections along the way.
