EdTech: There When You Need It - with Sher Downing

Published on: 11th September, 2022

From Wikipedia: Educational technology is the combined use of computer hardware, software, and educational theory and practice to facilitate learning. When referred to with its abbreviation, edtech, it is often referring to the industry of companies that create educational technology

Dr. Sher Downing, CEO & EdTech Strategist of Downing EdTech Consulting, explains the importance of having a plan - or at least doing some thinking about what you plan to do beyond retirement - BEFORE you get to your Phase Two of life, as she calls it. Sometimes people don't even realize they have a passion that they're not following until they take the time to talk about it.

Sher knows how to help you with the next stage of your life. Whether you've finished one career and are looking to begin another or you're hoping to realize a lifelong dream of selling something online, she and her team can help you plan it and bring it to fruition.

It doesn't matter whether you're comfortable with EdTech or not; there are programs, services and people available to help you move forward.

Beyond Retirement
What really happens after retirement?

If you’re approaching retirement—or already there—and wondering what now?, you’re not alone. The world is full of financial advice for retirement, but there’s far less about how to actually live a fulfilling life once the 9-to-5 ends.

Beyond Retirement is the podcast that explores what comes after the career chapter. Whether your retirement was planned or unexpected, joyful or jarring, you’ll find real stories, honest conversations, and practical inspiration here.

Join host Jacquie Doucette as she shares her own journey and speaks with people who’ve reimagined life after work—some fully retired, some shifting gears, and all discovering new meaning in this next stage. From finding purpose to building community, embracing play, and navigating change, we’ll explore how to create a life that truly fits.

Because retirement isn’t the end—it’s a new beginning.

Let’s figure out what comes next, together.
