Acquisition enhances Tyler's offerings for the K-12 market, bringing scalable and data-driven processes to the forefront
Tyler Technologies, Inc. (NYSE:TYL) announced today it has acquired Edu.Link Incorporated (Edulink), a longtime provider of educator evaluation, compliance tracking, and workflow automation solutions.
The acquisition of Edulink strengthens Tyler's School ERP human resources (HR) capabilities, bringing deeper functionality to evaluations, clearances, professional development, and district-wide workflow automation. The combined solutions will support districts with more unified visibility across HR, compliance, and operational processes. With more than 50 years of combined experience in serving educational institutions, Tyler's and Edulink's solutions bring even more innovation and efficiency to the market.
"Since our company's founding, we've been committed to helping educators succeed by bringing efficiency and compliance to their administrative workflows," said Edulink Co-Founder David Myers. "Now, as a part of Tyler, we can expand that commitment to educational institutions across the country. We look forward to delivering best-in-class solutions to the K-12 market, combining our deep domain expertise in talent management with Tyler's breadth of offerings."
Edulink's flagship products include comprehensive teacher evaluation and compliance requirement tools, PAETEP and Comply. PAETEP is an electronic teacher evaluation portal that streamlines observations, goal setting, and performance reviews. Comply helps schools manage requirements such as professional development, managing clearances, and complying with state mandates. Comply also manages administrative workflows like field trip requests, reimbursements, and volunteer tracking. Both tools help to reduce administrative burdens, strengthen clarity around state requirements, and support school leaders in the work that matters most — serving students and staff.
"Supporting schools and educational institutions is foundational to Tyler's mission of creating stronger communities, and our acquisition of Edulink is a natural fit as we continue to empower educational administrators with solutions to streamline their business and regulatory needs," said Sean Marlow, president of Tyler's Municipal & Schools Division. "Together, we'll be able to deliver even more value, stability, and innovation for the K-12 administrators we serve."
Founded in 1998, Edulink is based in Cranberry Township, Pennsylvania. The management and staff will become part of Tyler's Municipal & Schools Division.
