California Technology Assistance Project

In developing CTAP, the earlier SB 1510 Education Technology Act programs were restructured in order to place control at local and regional levels.

Funded by the Education Technology Local Assistance Program, CTAP focuses on promoting the effective use of educational technology through regional coordination of educational support services based on local needs. Each of the eleven county superintendents' regions in the state has developed and is implementing a plan to provide technology assistance in five key component areas:

1. Staff Development
2. Technical Assistance
3. Information & Learning Resources
4. Telecommunications Infrastructure
5. Coordination & Funding

The goal in each CTAP region is to work collaboratively to support the use of technology in districts and schools.
