Facilities & Technology Enhancements

We have made a substantial investment in new technology to ensure that students will not share devices and will maintain continuity of devices during any distance learning scenario.
Campus broadband capacity has been doubled and Key’s IT Department is extending the WiFi network to incorporate new outdoor instructional areas in anticipation of increased need to support both on-campus and distance teaching and learning.
The network has also been optimized to enable timely bandwidth upgrades should we demonstrate additional need.
