Be Connected: E-Rate Program Updates

Wed. September 18, 2024 | 1:00 pm - 1:45 pm CDT

It’s time for a funding update! Join us as we dive into several changes impacting funding opportunities for schools. Our discussion will primarily focus on E-Rate, including program updates and key aspects of the program’s:

– Application process
– Compliance requirements
– Expected deadlines

Illinois state E-Rate coordinator and funding expert Mindy Fiscus will also be on hand to answer your questions and outline strategies for maximizing your school’s E-Rate benefits.

This is an essential discussion for tech directors looking to stay informed and make the most of funding resources available to their school.

Be Connected is a weekly networking series from the LTC focused on facilitating open discussions about pertinent topics within Illinois’ edtech community. Hosted by the LTC’s Duane Shaffer and Eric Muckensturm, each session will focus on a specific topic and provide space for participants to ask and answer questions in a relaxed, supportive environment.

Each week will feature a different core topic and a fresh opportunity to connect with your peers. So, be sure to check the LTC events calendar routinely so that you can join in the discussion and Be Connected.
