St. Louis, MO. (Aug. 31, 2011) – After making its premiere in 2010, Education Technology Partners announced today that it is being recognized again by Inc. magazine on the 2011 list of 5000 America’s fastest-growing private companies. This year’s national ranking is No. 3792.

As one of America’s leading providers of educational technology solutions to K-12 schools, Education Technology Partners provides effective software, training and professional services to help students, educators, schools and districts achieve lasting success. From its headquarters in St. Louis, Education Technology Partners focuses on the central U.S., serving more than 650 K-12 schools and school districts.

Education Technology Partners also achieved these Inc. magazine rankings:

• No. 60 on list of America’s Fastest Growing Education Industry Companies
• No. 45 on list of Fastest Growing Missouri Companies
• No. 22 on list of Fastest Growing St. Louis Companies

"Our commitment to provide educators with “best of breed” education technology solutions has evidently paid off with the addition to the prestigious Inc. 5000 list for consecutive years," said Randy Jennings, Education Technology Partners founder and president. "Being named to the ranks of America's most successful and innovative companies for two years in a row is truly an honor."

“Now, more than ever, we depend on Inc. 500/5000 companies to spur innovation, provide jobs, and drive the economy forward.  Growth companies, not large corporations, are where the action is,” says Inc. magazine Editor Jane Berentson.

"Without our incredible employees and loyal customer base Education Technology Partners would not be where it is today; I'm extremely grateful for their continuing support," Jennings continued.

Education Technology Partners will be among the companies recognized at the 30th annual Inc. 500/5000 Conference and Awards Ceremony to be held Sept. 22-24 at the Gaylord National Resort and Convention Center in Washington, D.C.
