If your ITC is close to Dayton or Toledo, could you please send this workshop information out to technology coordinators in your regions? Please send to any other lists you might have too. We have very low registration for these 2 upcoming workshops and hope to bump up the numbers.

This curriculum comes with a learning management platform that can be used for the record keeping which might be requested in E-Rate audits and the 486 reviews.

Thanks for any help you can give us with this.

PLEASE FORWARD:

Did you know that in the first quarter of this school year 215,058 students across Ohio have been enrolled in the EasyTech Online Safety Curriculum for K-12? There's still plenty of time to enroll your students.

EasyTech is available for free to ALL Ohio schools, public and private, through the Ohio Department of Education and INFOhio. All the assessments and reporting necessary to meet the national E-Rate requirements for student Internet safety training are included along with a learning management system, a mobile app, and numerous resources for teachers and parents.

Find out how to use the curriculum in your school at one of the upcoming statewide hands-on training sessions:

  *   Southwest: November 2, SOITA, 1205 Fifth St., Dayton, OH<https://www.eventbrite.com/e/online-safety-curriculum-workshop-nov-2-tickets-18793757635>.

  *   Northwest:  November 16, Lake Erie West ESC, 2275 Collingwood Boulevard, Toledo, OH<http://www.eventbrite.com/e/online-safety-curriculum-workshop-nov-16-tickets-19174301853> .
Additional workshops are being planned for the Cincinnati and Columbus areas.

You can come for the entire workshop, attend just the nuts and bolts in the morning session, or attend the hands-on afternoon session covering best practices for customizing EasyTech for your district. Your district can send more than one person to the training if needed. Participants should bring their own devices to the workshops.

To sign your district up for the EasyTech curriculum, go to http://resources.learning.com/acton/form/1499/0144:d-0001/0/index.htm
