What People Are Saying
"My participation in the CTO Mentor Project has provided a strengthened connection with the state-wide K-12 EdTech community. The sense of isolation that often looms in tight budget times or during intense technical challenges is overcome in reaching out to one of the MANY folks that I now know on a first-name basis as a result of my experiences in becoming a CCTO. Thank You Andrea, CETPA, CCSESA, FCMAT and the many others who have put your energy and expertise into developing this wonderful opportunity!!!" - Michael Schenck, CCTO, Konocti Unified.
