The Next Generation of Education and Open Access Networking

CEN is America's first statewide K-12 and higher education network to be built exclusively using state-of-the-art fiber optic connections. Initially established in 2000, CEN provides a high speed, redundant, connection to every K-12 school district - over 240 schools, and over 170 public libraries in the state. These institutions that are on the front line of education reform, use CEN to access the Internet, Internet2, iCONN, and thousands of other resources exclusively targeted to students, teachers, researchers, and administrators.
