Frequently Asked Questions

What experience do you have serving K-12 schools?
C1 has decades of experience partnering with K-12 school districts nationwide. We understand the unique technology challenges educators face from supporting one-to-one device programs to ensuring student safety online. Our dedicated Education team works with superintendents, IT directors, and school boards to design solutions that align with teaching and learning goals. We’ve helped hundreds of districts modernize their IT infrastructure, implement secure learning environments, and deliver reliable technology experiences for students and staff. 
How do you handle cybersecurity and compliance?
Protecting student and staff data is one of our top priorities. C1 provides 24/7 managed security services, including advanced threat detection, vulnerability assessments, and incident response. We help schools strengthen defenses against ransomware and phishing attacks. With C1, districts gain peace of mind knowing their sensitive information is secured by industry-leading experts. 
What is included in your service-level agreements (SLAs) and support commitment?
C1 offers clear, measurable SLAs that guarantee uptime, fast response times, and proactive issue resolution. Our Education clients receive access to a service desks, escalation pathways, and round-the-clock monitoring to ensure uninterrupted learning. Whether it’s network downtime, classroom technology issues, or security alerts, C1 is committed to resolving problems quickly so teachers can focus on instruction, not IT challenges.
Can you scale and adapt services to fit changing school needs?
Yes. C1’s managed IT services are built to scale with district growth and evolving needs. Whether you’re launching a one-to-one device program, expanding hybrid learning, or upgrading your network for higher bandwidth demands, we adapt our services to fit your goals. Our flexible, subscription-based model makes it easy for schools to adjust as budgets, enrollment, and technology requirements shift over time. 
How do you support strategic planning and technology modernization?
C1 is more than a service provider, we’re a long-term partner in digital transformation. Our experts conduct technology assessments and roadmap planning, helping districts modernize from legacy systems to secure, cloud-based environments. We also advise on emerging solutions like AI, collaboration platforms, and advanced networking so schools can stay ahead of future learning needs. With C1, technology planning is always tied to student success and educational outcomes. 
What is your pricing model and how predictable are your costs?
We understand K-12 budgets are tight and must be predictable. That’s why C1 offers transparent, subscription-based pricing for managed IT services. Instead of unpredictable repair or upgrade costs, districts pay a flat monthly fee for ongoing monitoring, support, and maintenance. This model gives IT leaders, Superintendents, and Boards confidence in budgeting, while also reducing the total cost of ownership.
How do you communicate and collaborate with school stakeholders?
C1 prioritizes clear, ongoing communication with superintendents, IT directors, and school boards. Each district receives a dedicated account manager who provides updates, quarterly business reviews, and data-driven insights on system performance. Our teams collaborate closely with educators to ensure technology decisions are aligned with classroom needs. We don’t just manage IT, we build strong, trusted relationships with every district partner. 
What is your staffing model, and how do you address IT labor shortages?
With the nationwide shortage of qualified IT professionals, many schools struggle to recruit and retain tech staff. C1 fills that gap by providing certified engineers, cybersecurity experts, and cloud specialists who act as an extension of your district’s team. Our managed services model ensures schools always have access to the expertise they need without the burden of hiring, training, and retaining staff in-house.
Can you support hybrid and remote learning environments?
Absolutely. C1 designs and supports secure, reliable hybrid learning environments so students can access lessons anytime, anywhere. We specialize in cloud collaboration tools, video conferencing, secure Wi-Fi networks, and remote access solutions that keep students connected whether they’re in the classroom or learning from home. With C1, districts can deliver seamless, equitable learning experiences for every student.
Do you help ensure technology integration aligns with educational goals?
Yes. At C1, we believe technology should always support the mission of education. Our Education team partners with district leaders to ensure IT infrastructure, devices, and applications enhance, not hinder, teaching and learning. We provide professional development, adoption support, and integration planning so teachers and students can maximize the impact of every technology investment.
