Swing Education is a technology-enabled marketplace that connects substitute teachers with K-12 schools. The platform provides an easy way for school administrators to request substitute teachers from a vetted pool, while offering teachers flexibility in choosing when and where they work. By facilitating this connection, Swing Education helps schools maintain student learning continuity despite teacher absences, thus addressing the ongoing challenges of teacher shortages. The platform benefits both schools, by saving time and resources, and substitute teachers, by allowing them to work on their own terms. Swing Education operates in multiple locations across the United States, including Arizona, California, Illinois, New Jersey, New York, Texas, and Washington, D. C.
