REMC

What is a REMC?
REMC stands for Regional Educational Media Center.

REMCs were created by the Michigan State Legislature in 1970 to serve the elementary and secondary schools in Michigan, and enhance educational opportunities for Michigan’s children.

What We Do

The REMC Association of Michigan believes that it must provide proactive leadership to the Michigan educational community by participating with other organizations in building a vision that supports quality teaching and learning and provides equity to Michigan's Pre K-12 students. The REMC Association of Michigan will accomplish this within the framework of the following principles:

• Improving learning for all students is our guiding principle

• Through future focused collaboration, leadership, and service we are better able to support our constituents and improve teaching and learning statewide

• Teachers are empowered to create high quality engaging instructional environments when they have access to the necessary skills, tools and rich sources of information

• Providing effective cost savings through statewide cooperative purchasing allows local resources to be reallocated to enhancing teaching and learning

• That its delivery systems and infrastructure capacity advances statewide connectivity.

• For more information on Statewide programs, visit the REMC Association website.
