Subject: CEN Quarterly Workshop - Build a Broadband Toolkit

 

February 22nd at a location near you!

 

 

CEN Broadband Toolkit Workshop

 

 

 

Dear Valued Members,

 

CEN's Education and Development Advisory Council is pleased to offer our second quarterly workshop. The Broadband Toolkit Workshop is an interactive, hands-on experience designed to equip our smaller member organizations and their often limited IT staff with the tools to:

 

·     Understand and solve tech mysteries

·     Diagnose and fix tech problems

·     Help your helpers with better diagnostics and problem descriptions

·     Plan for the future and become stronger advocates

 

This workshop will feature a presentation of the toolkit, Q&A, CEN member experiences, and a hands-on completion of the toolkit with the friendly help of IT professionals. The presentation will be led by Internet2's IT consultant, Carson Block.

 

Similar to CEN's last training event, this workshop will feature an in-person group experience with interactive technology hosted at several locations across the state. Originally designed for libraries, this toolkit and workshop are well suited to benefit small schools, municipalities, and libraries. 

 

Join us for an educational and productive morning!

 

The event will be held at the following locations: 



·     Middletown Library Service Center

·     Stratford Library

·     Oliver Wolcott Library, Litchfield

·     Acton Public Library, Old Saybrook

·     Mansfield Public Library

 

The event is open to all CEN members. Additional details will be sent out to registered participants.
