SBC Education Advocates in Action
This Fall, SBC Education Advocates are busy as usual giving presentations and workshops
for teachers, librarians, and administrators. Top requests
are about E-rate, Grants, Cyber Crime and Network Security, and the
ever-popular SBC Blue Web'n and Filamentality. Check out our California
map to locate your Education Advocate.
Education Advocate Deena Aerenson is immersed in the world of
grants. She's been searching for grants and alerting customers. She's
also delivering her workshop -- both in person and via videoconference
-- "Panic First and then what...a team approach to grant writing."
The goal of the workshop is to provide participants with an effective
and efficient process for managing a grant from start to finish!
