Technology & Connectivity Funding Support

Our largest funding service. We help with every step of the E-Rate process, from planning and filing through reviews and appeals, and keep you current on deadlines and program changes.

Find the right federal, state, and private funding for your project, match it to your technology plan, and get help with applications, from Title IV-A to the School Violence Prevention Program.

Understand the rules that come with funding, such as Title IV-A’s 15% limit on technology purchases, records and audits for past programs like the Emergency Connectivity Fund, and requirements for Cybersecurity Pilot participants.

Every major federal, state, and private source Illinois districts can use for devices, networks, software, cybersecurity, and school safety.

Where the money for instructional technology coaches can come from, including Title II-A and other federal and state sources.

What the 15% limit on devices, equipment, and software really covers, common misconceptions, and where federal funding stands.

What the federal SVPP pays for, who can apply, the 25% match, and how to get ready for the next round.

Where the FCC’s $200 million pilot stands, what it pays for, and what participating Illinois districts need to do now.

The program has ended, but record-keeping, audits, and equipment rules still apply to districts that took part.
