This year there are two E-rate-related sessions being held at the PETE & C Technology Conference in Hershey which is being held February 9 – 12, 2014. The first is a 1-hour update on E-rate 2.0, the reforms that are being proposed, and how they may affect you. The second is 2+ hour free-style E-rate roundtable opportunity for any school or library to have their E-rate questions answered, contracts and draft forms reviewed. You may attend both if you are a paid attendee to the conference. Details for both sessions are below.<\/p>\n
