As you may know, eRate is the discount or rebate that libraries and
schools can receive on telecommunication and internet services based on
poverty in their area as indicated by the free and reduced school lunch
program. This workshop is the first of two on how to fill out the
necessary forms for this discount/rebate. If you're on the fence as to
whether to attend this year, be aware that Ohio is changing how the free
and reduced lunch program is calculated. If you have questions about
what qualifies for eRate, please see this list of Eligible Services for
FY 2013

Presented by Lorrie Germann, State E-Rate Coordinator/Program Director
eTech Ohio, this session will take you through the process of filling
out eRate form 470.  Lorrie will be presenting at the State Library of
Ohio in Columbus, but the workshop will be video conferenced to many
satellite locations throughout the state. Please see below for a

Additionally, any eRate request that includes Priority 2 services must
include a certified technology plan. Even if your eRate request doesn't
include a Priority 2 request, it's helpful to have a plan in place to
support future growth. To help support you in these efforts, I'm having
two webinars on technology planning:

 

Plain and Simple: Technology Planning for E-Rate

Taking Your Technology Planning to the Next Level

I understand that this can be an intimidating process; please let me
know what questions you have or how else I can be of assistance. 

 

Best,
