Origin
In 2001 Ohio SchoolNet implemented the All Student System Interns Supporting Technology (ASSIST) program. The program identified school districts that were realizing several positive benefits by involving students in school technology support activities. The purpose was to learn from their experiences and share those processes, results, policies and other information across the state through Participation Profiles .

Subsequently, in 2003 Ohio SchoolNet implemented the Ohio Educational Technology Support and Management Grant (OETSMG) program. The OETSMG identified districts that had strong technology support and management tools and processes in place, some of which involved the use of students as technology supporters.
