Training Presentations

Each fall beginning with 1999, the SLD has presented a Train-the-Trainer workshop. This workshop is designed specifically for state and territorial coordinators and others who train or assist in the training of E-rate applicants. The workshop presentations are issues-focused, and cover updates, developments, and specific topics related to E-rate.

The presentations from each workshop are posted in the Reference Area of the SLD web site so that trainers and others who were not able to attend the workshop can have access to the presentations. Below are the presentations from the 2004 workshop, which was held in Arlington, Virginia, on September 27–29, 2004.
