Jason La Greca - Founder of Teachnology

About Jason

20 years of building. Now yours.

Jason La Greca has spent two decades at the intersection of education and technology. Not watching from the sidelines. Building in the trenches.

He's worked in Microsoft Engineering. Led the technical implementation of hundreds of Canvas LMS customers at Instructure. Advised NSW State and Australian Federal government on digital credentials and national skilling initiatives. Led large technical teams at Macquarie University.

He's taught extensively across K-12 and Higher Education, and currently lectures at Western Sydney University, working with pre-service teachers to build their digital literacy.

The Teachnology Intensive brings it all together. A career's worth of experience, knowledge, and hard-won lessons, distilled into a living curriculum that evolves as fast as AI does.

Why this exists

I've spent 20 years watching the same pattern repeat. New technology arrives. Vendors overpromise. Leaders buy solutions they don't understand. Consultants advise without ever building. And the people who actually need capability? They get left behind.

I've been on every side of this. I've been the teacher frustrated by systems that didn't work. I've been the engineer building at Microsoft. I've been the implementation lead watching organisations fail to adopt what they bought. I've been the government advisor trying to skill an entire nation.

Now, with AI, the stakes are higher than ever. The gap between those who understand and those who don't is widening every day. Most "AI education" is either too shallow to be useful or too technical to be accessible.

The Teachnology Intensive is my answer: a living curriculum that takes everything I've learned and makes it accessible to anyone willing to put in the work. Not theory. Capability.
