Educational Institutions & Districts

Over the past year the world has drastically changed, forcing educational institutions globally to adapt to a new need for learning from anywhere. Schools that once only considered lab set up to support learning for their art and animation students, now need to find ways to equip students and staff with hardware and software solutions that can be accessed from home. We partner with our educational institutions and districts to help them make this transition easier.

NEW – Toon Boom now offers online buying for educational institutions and school districts.
