The Shared LAN Technician Service can provide assistance to districts in planning, development, implementation, and management of both Local Area Networks (LANs) and District-wide Area Networks (DANs) in conjunction with local district technology staff.  By development and implementing networks districts can provide access to educational resources and materials efficiently and cost-effectively, increase and extend the variety of teaching methods and techniques available to staff, and provide equal access to opportunities to students.  
 
The Network Analysts provided by BOCES can also serve to coordinate additional assistance from other BOCES services, such as computer repair and cleaning from Technology Services, Internet Connectivity and Videoconferencing as provided by the Wide Area Networking Service, equipment delivery from the Courier Service, and Curriculum Integration from Model Schools.  Further, their expertise can be used to assist district personnel with technology planning, equipment ordering and purchasing, and asset management.  And although the Network Analysts specialize in networking, their technology expertise is broad-based so that they can assist with technologies ranging from surveillance systems to Smartboards to cell phones, depending on the needs of the district.
 
Shared LAN Technicians currently serve in nearly 20 districts of the BOCES, providing both regularly scheduled and limited on-call services.  The service is supervised by Matt Hull, the Senior LAN Technician and staffed by the following personnel:
 
Mike Perry
Paul Garhartt
Rich Nason
David Gealt
Brad Lacross
Shawn Fortier
Jason Purificato
Ken Morrill
Al Graham
