In the UK education system Information Technology was formally
integrated into the school curriculum when the National Curriculum
was devised. It was quickly realised that the work covered was
useful in all subjects. With the arrival of the internet and the
broadband connections to all schools, the application of IT knowledge,
skills and understanding in all subjects became a reality. This
change in emphasis has resulted in a change of name from IT (Information
Technology) to ICT (Information and Communication Technology). ICT
in Education can be understood as the application of digital
equipment to all aspects of teaching and learning. It is present
in almost all schools and is of growing influence.

The Association of Personal Computer User Groups (APCUG) is a nationwide organization that helps local computer user groups by facilitating communications between local groups, computer hardware and software makers, and hardware and software vandors. A non-profit corporation as designated by the U.S. Internal Revenue Service, APCUG also helps member groups and their officers fulfill their education goals with support materials and shared knowledge and experience.
While a large number of member groups in APCUG are oriented towards the MicrosoftDOS and Windows operating systems, many member groups include members using a variety of operating systems and provide services to meet all of their needs. Membership is open to all microcomputer user groups.
APCUG itself is not a user group; only user groups themselves are members. APCUG product and services are offered to group leaders, who can choose to share those products and services with their members.
