The CENIC Community Technology Affinity Group (C2TAG) is an evolution of the CENIC Technical Advisory Committee (TAC), which was created for members to provide technical guidance to CENIC, helping architect the original iteration of the network. As CENIC grew, the need for technical guidance from our members lessened, and the TAC evolved into a group of IT professionals that met quarterly to receive updates from CENIC engineers and discuss technology trends.

The C2TAG will continue this tradition and provide additional value for CENIC members.

The C2TAG is a forum for representatives from all CENIC member segments to share information and expertise about network technologies, creating a community of like-minded professionals who serve their colleagues as trusted advisors. It also allows members to engage CENIC staff and explore recently deployed network services and their applications among CENIC segments.

By joining the C2TAG, technology professionals are connected to a network of their peers in an informal setting. Through our mailing list, Slack, and various meetings, we share best practices, discuss problems and solutions, and gain valuable insights into industry trends.
