Thursday webinar will explain how to seek newly available funds for rural broadband

The Federal Communications Commissions recently announced the creation of an experimental program called the Rural Broadband Trials to allow surplus from the Connect America Fund to go to rural broadband providers that hadn’t previously been eligible for the support. So, how do you get access to the funds? That answer will be provided at 1:30 p.m. EDT on Thursday in a free webinar.

During the webinar the National Rural Assembly’s Rural Broadband and Policy Group, in cooperation with the FCC, will explain to rural stakeholders "how to participate in the FCC’s new experiment, the Rural Broadband Trials – a program that will fund projects to bring broadband to rural areas," according to the assembly.
