Abstract: As part of the Schools and Libraries Sixth Report and Order, the Commission launched a pilot program - EDU 2011 Pilot Program - that supports off-campus wireless Internet connectivity for mobile learning devices. The Commission established this trial program to investigate the merits and challenges of wireless off-premises connectivity services, and to help the Commission determine whether and how they should ultimately be eligible for E-rate support. This is consistent with the vision outlined in the National Broadband Plan (NBP).
