SLD Announces E-rate Training Dates - Register Now
Message Posted May 9, 2011
Although E-rate training will be held in Pennsylvania during the months of October and November, I wanted to let you know that the SLD has just announced a one-day training session in Washington, DC on September 26, 2011 at the Renaissance Arlington Capital View Hotel in Arlington, VA (Crystal City). Registration on the SLD website (http://www.usac.org/sl/about/training-sessions/) just opened and will only accommodate 200 registrants (so if you would like to attend, register soon). Negotiated prices for hotel rooms also are listed on the SLD website.
The comprehensive agenda has not yet been released, but the USAC website states the training will include a beginner's session to introduce the program and application process, common areas of concern for applicants, and topics of particular interest this year. The training materials will be posted to the USAC website prior to the training for you to download, print and take with you to the training.
Although they are offering a brief beginners session, it's been my experience that if you are truly a beginner, you may want to wait and register for one of the PA E-rate trainings for beginners, which will be announced in August.
The SLD will be holding additional -- identical -- trainings in various US cities, including Newark, through early November as follows:
• Newark, NJ – Thursday, October 6, 2011
• Minneapolis, MN – Monday, October 10, 2011
• Portland, OR – Thursday, October 13, 2011
• St. Louis, MO – Tuesday, October 18, 2011
• New Orleans, LA – Thursday, October 27, 2011
• Los Angeles, CA – Tuesday, November 1, 2011
• Orlando, FL – Tuesday, November 8, 2011
If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact me.
