This panel conversation will take a 'systems design' approach and discuss the topic from higher education’s best practices with outcome-ready solutions. We will dive into a conversation where higher education reveals its best practices for serving our students needing well-designed digital accessibility solutions and services.

Affordability Connectivity Program and the Community Discussion in Higher Education:
Students of all kinds are asked to use digital technologies to create classroom assignments and to participate in every aspect of being a student. However, not all students have the same access to computers and internet services. When the Affordable Connectivity Program recently announced they have 20 million subscribers, the pressure to extend this program has become greater. Knowing how to apply and get the most out of the program is key to having a great home and mobile digital experience. This panel will discuss what the best practices are for obtaining access to the ACP services and also offer ways higher education can support the continuation of this opportunity from campus..
PANELISTS:
N. Betancur, Deputy Director, Center for Digital Equity
AJ Kirby, Education Superhighway, Marketing Manager
