Socket Visits the MASA Conference

 

We just got back from this year's Spring MASA (Missouri Association of School Administrators) Conference at the Lodge of Four Seasons down at the Lake of the Ozarks. As an official business associate member of the association, we look forward to this event each spring as a time to touch base with both current and potential customers.

It was great to catch up with the administrators, principals, superintendents, and people that make education in Missouri. We had the chance to talk to school district officials about our discount voice and internet services we can provide over the Department of Education's E-Rate Program. The E-Rate Program allows us to provide broadband internet to rural schools and libraries for an affordable price. The program, funded by a required fee that telephone providers pay, is designed to expand schools’ access to affordable telecommunications services with discounts of up to 90 percent.

We talked to schools about services tailored to their specific needs such as hosted phone systems, SIP trunking, and dark fiber WAN. Socket is proud to offer support to Missouri's public education system.
