The findings of the symposium are organized into four strands: education; business and industry; government and military; and community organizations. In each strand, the perspectives of the area are discussed and directives are presented. The following eight issues were identified as critical to the success of Arizona in the future telecommunications landscape: cooperation; public/private partnerships; marketing; applications; education, training, and retraining; regulatory, legal, and legislative issues; technology; and funding. Included in the appendixes are the symposium program; selected excerpts from conference presentations; and excerpts from "State Plan for a Technology Integrated Educational Delivery System (TIEDS)."
