The DE Act from National Telecommunications Information and Administration (NTIA) provides $2.75 billion to establish tres programas de subvenciones that promote digital opportunity and workforce skills. They aim to ensure that all people and communities have the skills, technology, and capacity needed to reap the full benefits of our digital economy. We recognize that to connect all Kansans, communities must also have the ability to access, devices to use and skills to support appropriate digital use. Kansas submitted our Five – Year Strategic Plan for public comment in early October of 2023.
Across the state we encouraged residents, community organizations, businesses, and local authorities, to participate in the public comment period for the Strategic Plan. The document adheres to NTIA guidelines and includes a description of each requirement along with attachments, available for public inspection and comments.
The Strategic Plan outlines specific strategies and objectives to achieve its goals, including ensuring digital skills training, affordable service plans and broadband-ready devices are aligned as top priorities. This plan also emphasizes the transformative power of technology, which can positively impact various areas such as healthcare, education and civic engagement.
