What is E-rate and how is it different from EETT?
E-rate is the program formally known as The Schools and Libraries Program of the Universal Service Fund and is overseen by the Schools and Libraries Division of the Universal Service Administrative Company (USAC). The purpose of E-rate is to provide schools and libraries with discounts on telecommunications services and Internet access. Although the program falls under the general category of education and technology, it differs from the Ed-Tech/EETT Program in that E-rate discounts are for technology related services (e.g., cellular connection, DSL, email) and related expenses only, rather than for actual technological equipment, software or training in the use of such tools.
