 Digital Divide Best Practices
Networking Academies share their formulas for success in achieving digital inclusion. We encourage all Networking Academies to use these examples, best practices, and strategies.

Academy Planning
"Our expertise is education. We identify all the student's needs then we establish working relationships with organizations who can help them remove barriers to success."

Mary Kieran
Borough of Manhattan Community College, New York, NY

Instructors
“If we want quality students, we have to remember that when instructors close the door to the classroom, they rule. I treat instructors with respect. I support them. I develop them. I champion their needs. They, in turn, appreciate it and perform.”


Anne Urevick
Cisco Regional Administrator, Philadelphia Public Schools

Students
"The ultimate goal is to teach our students the skills they will need to succeed in the 21st Century. Thanks to Cisco Systems, Inc. I can teach those skills using industry standard equipment and software. A wide range of students are now provided with an invaluable technical education."

Chris Tully
Roxborough High School, Philadelphia, PA

Work Opportunities
"The model of a company hiring an employee for many years and investing in their training is changing. The new technology employee is taking more responsibility for their own professional development and career management."

Linda Hanks
Focus: HOPE, Detroit, MI

Resources
"Cisco is one of the best partners you can have. The name alone allows you to leverage resources. The Academy program insures quality standards, replication and cost-effectiveness. All the things funding sources want when they invest."

Acte Maldonado
Borough of Manhattan Community College, New York, NY

Donations
"We see Cisco as an opportunity to help people get beyond poverty and help close the digital divide. Reach Across Houston is a ten year old, faith-based organization with a mission to help people get out of poverty. We are a Regional Academy with seven Locals in Empowerment Zones."

Benny Sanders
Reach Across Houston, Houston, TX
