No longer must you travel long distances for a business meeting, deposition, brainstorming session, or consulting appointment or spend hours commuting to earn your degree. With The Center's state-of-the-art videoconferencing services—available both at our centrally-located Somerset facility and over 97 CenterNET2 sites throughout the state—life just got easier for those we serve throughout the state of Kentucky. Through the Kentucky Postsecondary Education Network (KPEN) which is based on a high-speed Ethernet connection using an Internet Protocol (IP), allows CenterNET2 to become more robust.

CenterNET2 provides video conferencing solutions for our customers. CenterNET2 takes it a little farther. We understand 2-way conferencing is not always the idea way for delivering your training needs. Let's uncover this technology that brings you face to face--even when you're thousands of miles apart. Today, it's a reality for your company or college, and it can save your students or training participants' big bucks in travel expenses and time.

When conventional interactive videoconferencing is not possible there are other options for delivering training. Through CenterNET2, "Live Broadcasts" can originate easily to anywhere in the world.

CenterNET2 is a statewide videoconferencing service which integrates 67 Kentucky Community and Technical College sites with the original 41-site CenterNET network. CenterNET2 can now offer new telecommunications capabilities to all 108 sites across the state of Kentucky. Network features now include content on demand plus bridging and Internet conversion capabilities, as well as the latest in content delivery solutions.
