CoSN Membership

 

Exciting news! The Office of Digital Teaching and Learning, in partnership with AzTEA, will provide ALL K-12 IT Leaders in Arizona with a one-year membership to the Consortium for School Networking (CoSN), at no cost to you! 

CoSN is the premier membership organization designed to meet the needs of K-12 education technology leaders. CoSN’s resources support the entire IT team in a school system/district with the opportunity to access their peers, thought leadership, and participate in local chapters. In the case of Arizona, AzTEA serves as the local chapter for CoSN. Read more about CoSN at www.cosn.org. 

All Arizona public school districts and charter systems are automatically granted a CoSN membership. All you need to do is define the main point of contact in IT who will receive direct information from CoSN. 

Fill out this contact form that collects brief details about your school/district, and the point of contact within IT. If you represent a public school district or a charter system, details about membership and adding staff to the membership roster will be sent to the email provided on the contact form.

Knowledge in cybersecurity practices and access to available cyber resources is essential to all school districts. We are excited to bring this opportunity to all Arizona public schools!

Other criteria for vetting applications will be incorporated into the training including the following: interoperability with existing applications, teacher and student ease of use, and instructional relevance and purpose. Using the TrustEd Apps Management Suite (TAMS) from 1EdTech, the Arizona LEAs will collaborate on the best practices for sharing the use of digital learning tools and resources with other educators in their schools and districts and will learn strategies for providing professional development in digital learning for their colleagues.
