The value of the NET+ programs goes far beyond the peer-vetted contract terms. Subscribers might come for the contract, but they stay for the community. Subscribing to a NET+ program is a powerful workforce multiplier and an extended higher-ed-focused information source. Regular technology knowledge base. Technology conversations with peers, technical deep dives on community-driven topics for technical deep dives, service advisory boards, and conversations with education leadership at the service providers are all core to the NET+ experience. In the NET+ AWS program, we hold bi-weekly Technology Share calls, quarterly "Tech Jams," , strategy-centered Subscriber Calls, and thematic Town Hall events. Past Town Hall topics covered Topics covered at past Town Halls include Ransomware, AWS Educate & Academy, as well as and Service Workbench and & RONIN for researchers.
