E-Rate is a federal program that provides eligible schools and libraries discounts on internet access, network equipment and maintenance of that equipment. The E-Rate program and its process can be complicated and time consuming. The rules can change annually (See more information regarding the E-Rate changes for 2021), there are numerous E-Rate application deadlines to keep track of, and reviews can become complicated. This is where a qualified E-Rate Consultant can help secure E-Rate funds.
