Converged Communications Working Group

After holding numerous joint meetings prior to the annual EDUCAUSE and Net@EDU forums, it became increasingly clear that there was a high degree of commonality in the interests and initiatives of both the Wireless and Integrated Communications Strategies working groups. Therefore, effective July 1, 2007, the two groups were officially merged to form the new Converged Communications Working Group.

CCWG will continue to meet twice a year with a focus on discussions with the vendor community before EDUCAUSE each fall and on projects and strategic initiatives from within higher education before Net@EDU each spring. The emphasis will be on – wireless technology, the spectrum, convergent services, financial planning, and best practices combined with a strong element of future technologies and strategic directions on the part of both vendors and universities. The meeting agendas will be planned by the members of the Converged Communications Steering Committee (link) with input from the general working group membership always welcome and appreciated.
