Iowa Communications Network Statewide Youth Broadband Advisory Council Applications

The application window to apply to ICN’s Statewide Youth Broadband Advisory Council (SYBAC) for the 2019-2020 school year is now open!

ICN's SYBAC engages high school students on a variety of broadband and technology related topics. Throughout the school year, the students meet with ICN’s Leadership and technology leaders from the community to discuss the importance of true high-speed broadband. SYBAC students have discussed a range of topics including: the Internet of Things (IoT), net neutrality, broadband infrastructure, wireless access, and cybersecurity.

Students enrolled in 10th - 12th grades during the 2019-2020 school year may apply for membership. Students selected will be notified by ICN in late May. Meetings will take place monthly from September 2019 through May 2020, via video conference, teleconference, and/or in-person. Council members also will communicate via email.
