MEEC is 25! MEEC was established in 1999 when Microsoft offered the University System of Maryland a discounted deal on their Enterprise Agreement if a minimum FTE was reached. USM alone could not reach that goal, so the Chancellor smartly extended the offer to all K-20 educational institutions in Maryland.
From the initial Microsoft agreement, MEEC has grown to include 200+ institutions representing over 241,000 FTE of faculty and staff and 1.25M students. MEEC has 98 vendors on 16 agreements with 20 vendors on multiple agreements.
Happy “Quarter of a Century”, MEEC!
