Broadband webinar Nov. 28 to focus on latest business tools

Experts will give advice on how to solve business problems using readily accessible, low cost technological tools during a broadband webinar Nov. 28.

The first of a new series of live seminars, this session will offer small businesses tips on how to use technology including cloud-based computing, e-commerce solutions and security to operate more efficiently, reduce costs, increase market share and attract new customers.

This new series is titled “Don’t Know What I Don’t Know.”

“We titled it that because the broadband technology available to businesses is expanding so quickly that many business people don’t even know what’s available out there,” said Connie Hancock, University of Nebraska-Lincoln Extension educator.

The webinar is scheduled at 10 a.m. Nov. 28 at connect.unl.edu/broadband.

Unlike past webinars in this series, this one will be conducted live, not recorded, and give participants a chance to ask questions.

“In addition to the usual expert information, the live feedback opportunity should make this webinar even more valuable than our previous ones,” Hancock said.

As is true of previous webinars in the series, this one will be archived at broadband.nebraska.gov. The Nebraska Broadband Project also is available on Facebook or on Twitter, @BroadbandNEBR.

This webinar series is part of a project funded by a grant to the Nebraska Public Service Commission by the U.S. Department of Commerce's National Telecommunications and Information Administration. The Broadband Mapping and Planning Initiative has been conducted by a coalition of Nebraska partners, including the PSC, University of Nebraska-Lincoln Extension, the UNL Center for Applied Rural Innovation, the Nebraska Information Technology Commission's Communication Council, the AIM Institute and the Nebraska Department of Economic Development.
