In 2018, the state launched the Georgia Broadband Deployment Initiative (GBDI). The initiative calls for the promotion and deployment of broadband services throughout the state to unserved areas with a minimum of 25 Mbps download and 3 Mbps upload speeds to increase economic, education, and social opportunities for Georgia citizens and businesses. The easy-to-use Speedtest, along with the information available at the Broadband Initiative website, will assist school leaders in planning for their digital learning strategies.
