Celebrate Earth Day 2020 with Advanced UK

Join fellow educators from all sectors as we offer an educational, informative and fun event in support of World Earth Day 2020. Corporate Social Responsibility is for all of us, and your students – and their parents too, are demanding we all improve.

EARTH DAY 22 APRIL 2020

UXBRIDGE, West London

With the staggering volume of printing and copying in the UK’s education sector, here at Advanced UK, we are opening our doors to teachers and students to learn about the impact, and to explore how technology – and some creativity – can replenish our forests and enable us all to consume fewer natural resources.

Consider this: the average school consumes 120 trees annually …

  • How can each school replenish the 120 trees it consumes each year?
  • Why your print servers are bad for the environment!
  • Watch your printer translate documents or convert them to audio!
  • See the world’s most sophisticated printing presses in action!
  • Equally important day for students and school administrators.
  • The environment: it matters to us all!

When is it?

10:00am – 1:00pm, 22 April 2020 (refreshments included)

PLEASE NOTE: For safeguarding reasons, all students must be accompanied by a member of school staff. We request a maximum of three students per school.

The Environment: we must care for it NOW!

Join fellow educators from all sectors as we offer an educational, informative and fun event in support of World Earth Day 2020. Corporate Social Responsibility is for all of us, and your students – and their parents too, are demanding we all improve.

Your hosts are Xerox and Advanced UK (the original XEROX Platinum Partner). We believe that the best approach to making a difference starts by consuming fewer resources, whether trees or electricity, polluting less, and replacing what we consume.

Guest Speaker

We’re waiting on final confirmation, but we have a terrific guest speaker lined up. Everyone, students and staff alike, will enjoy this 30-minute lecture.

For the Students

We’ll start with a guided tour of the Xerox Innovation Centre, and show the massive Xerox printing presses in operation, and then we’ll explore the latest innovations available through what was, until recently, merely a printer. For example, watching a printer translate a document into any of more than 40 languages, or converting printed documents into audio files: make revision a breeze!

For School Administrators & IT Managers

We know the true cost of operating a computer server, but do you? You’ll learn why print servers are all obsolete and how to transform your IT budget for maximum effect.

We will explore the impact of solving your print-related support issues remotely can reduce your carbon emissions, and halve the number of print related support calls.

There’s much else besides, such as enabling mobile printing in your school: this alone can create massive savings (or even create a source of revenue).
