ISOC's Education Activities

ccTLD Training Workshop

The Internet Society’s mission is to achieve a world in which everyone everywhere is connected to an open and universally accessible Internet.  Since its inception in 1992, ISOC has been at the forefront of global Internet education by bringing essential information and training to people throughout the world.

As outlined in our Strategic Operating Plan (PDF: 311KB), ISOC’s education program goals are to:

• provide and distribute information related to the Internet and its technologies to individuals and to public and private organizations, including governments;
• provide assistance with Internet deployment and use to people in technologically developing countries and regions; and
• promote the development of self-sustaining communities able to effectively deploy and exploit local and regional education and training resources.

ISOC delivers on these goals through activities such delivering hands-on technical training, organising seminars conferences on topical Internet issues, supporting local and regional Internet organisations, issuing briefings and white papers on Internet technologies, and funding participation opportunities for Internet experts in developing countries.
