The on-going web development in the Northeast Region continues. By March 24, ten events have been held across the state. Unit offices are back home now, adding data, configuring the program and getting it ready for use in this year's Fairs. We look forward to effective reports, efficient printing and seamless events this year. Then everybody is aware of it.
Internet Connectivity is also very individual.
Across Extension offices, Internet costs vary for strange and wondrous reasons. Also, office budgets vary for equally as many reasons. This has resulted in fewer service disruptions as Extension offices work on their daily tasks. Additionally, ISBE is piloting a new initiative to drop Internet service costs still further through a community sharing program. Extension has no control over which communities will have access to this program but Christian County and Effingham Center are current participants.
