The converging technologies of telecommunications, computers, and media are creating new businesses, new jobs, and new courses of study at technical and community colleges. Students need access to digital TV, multimedia, wireless, community server, public kiosk, and audience feedback technologies in order to become builders of future information infrastructure, a new national priority with local and regional economic development and community building potential. This project, which equips students in this area of advanced technological education, has been organized within the framework of a new networking communication (NetCo) curriculum that both draws upon and contributes to building rural community networks (CoNets). Some of the equipment for this project goes into college electronic labs, computer labs, and video production studios for NetCo students pursuing three study options: communication technology, multimedia software, and interactive television. Equipment can also be shared through links into and among rural communities, which make up a CoNet model. This model involves spread spectrum transceivers on antenna towers and public kiosks in various local sites. This CoNet model_impacting handicapped, elderly, young, and especially rurally remote families_includes new RAN (rural area network) wireless links among LANs, WANs and MANs. Mayors, school superintendents, teachers, librarians, county agents, and business people attended week-long summer workshops to learn how to initiate CoNets locally and regionally in 1995. In 1996-97, 60 faculty statewide can learn to use this equipment in support of NetCo curriculum.

电信、计算机和媒体的融合技术正在创造新的业务、新的就业机会，以及技术和社区学院的新课程。学生需要访问数字电视，多媒体，无线，社区服务器，公共信息亭和观众反馈技术，以便成为未来信息基础设施的建设者，这是一个新的国家优先事项，具有地方和区域经济发展和社区建设潜力。 该项目使学生掌握这一领域的先进技术教育，是在一个新的网络通信课程框架内组织的，该课程既借鉴又有助于建立农村社区网络。 该项目的一些设备进入大学电子实验室，计算机实验室和视频制作工作室为NetCo学生追求三个学习选择：通信技术，多媒体软件和交互式电视。还可以通过农村社区之间的链接共享设备，这构成了CoNet模式。这一模式涉及在天线塔上的扩频收发机和在不同的本地站点的公共信息亭。 这种CoNet模型影响残疾人、老年人、年轻人，特别是农村偏远家庭，包括局域网、WAN和MAN之间的新RAN（农村区域网络）无线链路。1995年，市长、学校主管、教师、图书管理员、县政府官员和商界人士参加了为期一周的夏季研讨会，学习如何在当地和地区启动CoNet。在1996-97年，全州60名教师可以学习使用这种设备，以支持NetCo课程。
