About the TechPlan Builder

Will Work for Any District – The WestEd RTEC TPB enables any educational entity, inside or outside of California, including public and private schools and colleges, to draft a technology plan. Individuals not associated with a district may also use the WestEd RTEC TPB to draft a technology plan.

Incorporates Your CBEDS Data – For California districts, the system incorporates your CA Basic Educational Data Systems (CBEDS) data for the current year.

Alignment with EETT - The TPB generates a plan that is aligned to both EETT requirements and CA's Appendix C - Criteria for EETT Funded Education Technology Plans. For more information on both of these reference documents visit http://www.cde.ca.gov/ls/et/rs/techplan.asp

Interview Questions – The interview questions consist of guiding questions taken from the CA-adopted Education Technology Planning Guide. A copy of this guide can be downloaded at http://www.cde.ca.gov/re/pn/fd/edtechplngd.asp

Tech Planning Tips - These tips provide additional guidance from the California Guidelines and other sources of technology planning expertise.

Multiple Users - The system is designed to allow individuals or teams functioning together to work on different components of the same plan.
