E-Rate Essentials: Form 470 Walkthrough & Program Updates | LAST CHANCE

Wed. January 14, 2026 | 2:00 pm - 4:00 pm CST

Note: This is the LAST CHANCE to walkthrough this year’s Form 470. All district who have not already completed their Form 470 are recommended to attend or set up an individual consultation in advance of this form’s submission deadline.


Learn and complete the first phase of your E-Rate application with an E-Rate expert on hand – all from the convenience of your office or living room!

This 2-hour virtual session will cover basic E-Rate program rules, eligible items, and the process required to complete the first E-Rate form of the year, Form 470. Mindy Fiscus, IL State E-Rate Coordinator, will also be on hand to answer questions, provide timely program updates, and offer tips and tools for making your E-Rate life easier.

All eligible institutions must submit Form 470 if they are seeking new services and/or equipment for the upcoming funding year.

Participants must bring a wi-fi enabled device and current student enrollment data (Fall SIS report or current CEP form) if they wish to complete Form 470 along with the group.
