In 2012 the decision was made to modify the INTEGRATE group into a Digital Learning Cadre. The Cadre is open to all public school entities that agree to collaborate in the systemic improvement of efforts related to digital learning. This Cadre is a partnership with the purpose of (a) Promoting digital learning and technology literacy for all students;  and (b) Exploring, designing and modeling professional development that utilizes best practices in instructional technology. Additional invited members will be Delaware's Department of Technology and Information, Delaware's institutes of higher education, and other educational institutes that serve the children of Delaware.
