Typetec has struck a new €1 million contract with the Royal College of Surgeons in Ireland (RCSI).

The new agreement continues a 20-year commercial relationship and will help develop RCSI’s Technology Enhanced Learning Programme. Typetec currently manages RCSI’s core network and server infrastructure, email and internet facilities and a multiplatform user base at RCSI main campus, RCSI Sandyford, RCSI Beaumont and the Rotunda.

RCSI was the first college in Ireland to pioneer a one-to-one laptop programme in 1993. Working in partnership with Typetec, RCSI has rolled out the service to 895 students at Dublin campus locations. Typetec will provide the hardware, technical support, professional development and continued ICT planning services.

Director of IT and transformation at RCSI Enda Kyne said: “For more than 20 years, Typetec has partnered with us to provide the technological expertise and infrastructure required as we grew to become Ireland’s largest medical school and the latest deal will ensure that we continue to provide world-class technology-enhanced learning for our students at our campus locations in Ireland and overseas.”

Typetec employs more than 50 people in Ireland with clients across the education, SME, enterprise, printing and public sectors.
