A large part of CoSN’s mission is to participate in edtech-related policy discussions at both national and state levels. Their agenda includes: Ensuring ample funding for educational technology, enhancing the effectiveness of the E-rate program, safeguarding the privacy and security of student data, and fostering digital equity. Policy initiatives are structured around CoSN’s focus on four critical policy areas: E-rate and broadband access in classrooms, educational technology funding, privacy and data security, and digital equity.
As part of #CoSN2024, the Advocacy Auction raises money for those efforts. Members volunteer a variety of items and experiences and attendees bid them up. Last year the event raised over $80K. Click here to register, check out the items, and make a bid!
