The Orion Project
The Orion Project is a high-speed Community Network, connecting El
Paso’s independent networks with a one-stop portal for online access
and delivery of K-Gray education. The founding members of the Orion
Project are the El Paso Community College (EPCC), the University of
Texas at El Paso (UTEP) and the El Paso Independent School District
(EPISD).
The Vision of the Orion Project is to provide a community-wide infrastructure
that transforms the models for delivering continuing and community education,
and creates an advanced and flexible architecture for information access and
resource sharing for the El Paso community that can be used to focus on specific
community educational, health, training and economic development needs.
