Refreshing the NETS

ISTE relies on the wisdom from the field to update and revise the NETS. Since 2006, when we launched the NETS Refresh, thousands of educators weighed in on efforts to refresh the student, teacher, and administrators standards.

At present, ISTE is refreshing standards for technology leaders, technology facilitators, and secondary computer science educators.  Originally developed for NCATE, these standards will become part of the NETS suite of standards for professionals.
