CEnet’s member dioceses share a common vision for a network and learning architecture suitable for the support of education and evangelisation in the digital age and have put their combined resources behind the development of centralized, managed services to deliver this architecture.
CEnet's Purpose
To connect and support Australian Catholic schools as they integrate information and communication technologies in the provision of contemporary learning and teaching and evangelisation.
CEnet's Key Activity
To procure and manage affordable, robust, scalable, standards-based ICT solutions, server and storage infrastructure and application services so as to provide a safe connected online learning environment for Catholic schools.
The consortium has harnessed specific telecommunications and application infrastructure and services to deliver an educationally-focused platform which allows- the creation of secure and filtered Internet access environments;
the provision of web-based communication/collaboration/elearning tools and curriculum resources and; the development of authentic online communities.
The architecture has been designed to maximize the benefits of a co-operative joint venture whilst maintaining a high degree of autonomy for individual members.
