#ICE19 Annual Conference

The FCC's E-rate program makes telecommunications and information services more affordable for schools and libraries. This program can also leave school district professionals trying to complete the many applications and timelines frustrated, confused and just worn out! IL State E-rate Coordinator Melinda Fiscus will lead a discussion about the program, provide tips for navigating the system, and help answer questions about what to do when and how. Audience participation is welcomed and encouraged. If you have years of experience or were blessed with the title of E-rate applicant yesterday, this is the session for you.

(Extra Information: The conversation may lead to the completion of the E-rate Form 471 for FY2019-20 for those ready to file. In order to make this happen this session would need to be scheduled as the last session on Wednesday, and the room available after normal conference hours for those who want to stay and file. We are trying out this model at IETC with the 470 application. If this can be arranged, please add the next sentence to the description.) The presenter will remain after the session to hands-on assist districts in completing the E-rate Form 471 for the upcoming cycle.
