British Columbia has a varied and rugged geography with many small rural and remote campuses. The students at these schools have been without features like EduRoam and SSO that most large institutions have readily provided for years. This session will cover the methods BC has taken to implement both tools at all schools and steps now underway to implement EduRoam in BC public spaces such as airports and libraries. With many schools having limited funds, limited staff, and outdated hardware/software, we had to take proactive approaches for this project to be successful. We will also discuss how we leverage this provincewide adoption to have vendors implement federated SSO as part of our contracting process.
