Programs & Solutions for Every Role in Your School
Whichever part of the journey you own — strategy, IT, the classroom, or the household budget — here's exactly what Power Mac Center and Apple deliver for you.
#leaders
For Leaders
Connect technology investment to institutional outcomes — with financing, planning, and a partner who stays past the rollout.
Smart Investment
Apple devices are built to last, with durable materials, power-efficient performance, and years of ongoing software updates. That durability translates to high residual value — recent research found iPad and MacBook Air retained roughly 20% and 25% of their original value after four years. Reliable, long-lasting devices also mean fewer IT help-desk tickets and lower repair costs over time — plus energy-efficient hardware built with recycled materials.

Flexible Financing
Apple Financial Services helps structure predictable, low-cost payment plans — including options as low as 0% interest — so leaders can pay by semester or school year over up to four years, aligned to your budget cycle. With Guaranteed Buyback, Apple provides a guaranteed device value at end-of-life, making future refreshes more affordable.

Strategic Planning & Coaching
Apple Professional Learning Specialists work directly with education leaders on executive coaching, strategic planning, and technology roadmaps — connecting your investment to real institutional goals.
Why Power Mac Center
As an Apple Premium Education Partner, Power Mac Center supports schools end-to-end — procurement, deployment, professional learning, and life cycle management — acting as a single technology advisor rather than a device vendor.
#school-it
For School IT
Deploy, secure, and support Apple at any scale — from ten devices to ten thousand — on the identity and tooling you already run.
Device Management & Apple School Manager
Apple's built-in MDM framework lets your MDM tool of choice monitor, configure, and secure every device remotely, at any scale. Apple School Manager is Apple's free, web-based deployment portal: purchase apps and content in volume, integrate with your existing identity provider (Google Workspace, Microsoft Entra ID, or any IdP using open standards), and issue Managed Apple Accounts.

Flexible Deployment Options
Zero-touch deployment (Automated Device Enrolment) enrolls institution-owned devices into your MDM automatically, with no manual provisioning before handoff. Shared iPad lets multiple students use the same device with personalized profiles, PIN-based login, and local storage of their own work. User Enrolment (BYOD) keeps school data separate and secure on personal devices without giving IT access to personal information.

Privacy & Compatibility
Apple's platforms are built to minimize data collection and keep processing on-device wherever possible. Student data is never shared or sold for advertising, and Apple never builds profiles based on student browsing or email. Apple devices are fully compatible with the tools your school already runs — Microsoft 365, Google Workspace for Education, Canvas, Seesaw — with class rosters syncing automatically from your SIS.

Support at Scale
AppleCare for Education gives your whole learning community — students, families, teachers, and IT — priority access to Apple technical support, plus hardware service credits to repair or replace devices as needed. Apple Professional Services can also provide on-site or remote engineering support to help scope and prepare large deployments.

#teachers
For Teachers
Tools that run the classroom, creative apps that come built in, and coaching that keeps growing your practice.
Classroom Tools
The Classroom app turns iPad and Mac into a teaching assistant — launch an app or page on every student device at once, lock devices into a single app for focus time, and build reusable lesson agendas with a built-in timer. Schoolwork lets you share assignments, track each student's progress, and collaborate in real time using Pages, Numbers, or Keynote. Assessment mode supports secure, automatically configured exams.

Creativity & Productivity, Built In
Every device comes ready with Pages, Numbers, and Keynote for documents, data, and presentations that go well beyond the basics — plus GarageBand for music creation, iMovie for collaborative filmmaking, and Freeform as a shared digital whiteboard. For coding, Teaching Code with Apple uses the free Swift Playgrounds app to teach real, industry-recognized skills through Develop in Swift Tutorials.
Professional Learning thru Basecamp – Apple's Professional Learning Provider — by building product foundations, exploring technology integration, and growing instructional practice.

#parents
For Parents
A device that grows with your child, a way to pay for it that fits the household, and protection if the worst happens.
The Right Device for Your Child
iPad and Mac are built to grow with your child — from a first sketch with Apple Pencil to a final research paper typed on a Magic Keyboard Folio. Every device is built to last, with durable materials and years of software support.

Making It Affordable
Power Mac Center's Family-Funded Programs give parents flexible payment options to invest directly in their child's device — backed by the same customized, low-cost financing structures Apple offers institutions.
Family-Funded ProgramsLow-cost financing
Protection & Peace of Mind
AppleCare+ for Schools covers accidental damage — up to two incidents per year — plus batteries, accessories, and fast repair or replacement options, so a dropped device doesn't mean a disrupted school year.
