iLab’s mission is to assist IT professionals, aspiring technologsits, newcomers to IT, as well as organizations and institutions in their effort to more readily share information using information and communication technologies (ICTs). iLab trainings were originally focused on open source tools and operating systems because they promote interactive communities and shared ownership. iLab’s trainings have since expanded to include topics such as web development for teens, social media, ICT for small businesses, Google Earth and Map Maker, how to blog, mastering the internet, and more. iLab has also become a space for local meet-ups of special interest technology groups and for local and international organizations to host events that are in-line with iLab’s mission.
