The Connecticut State Legislature passed legislation in 2000, which Governor Rowland signed into law on June 1, 2000. Public Act 00-187 established the Commission for Educational Technology which was given the task of working with the Connecticut State Department of Education to ensure that all students achieve competency in computing skills by the end of the sixth grade. It also requires all public school teachers to have specific computing skills and be able to integrate technology into the curriculum.

To this end, the Connecticut State Department of Education has developed competencies for students, teachers and administrators.
