About Us
Established in 2009, Catholic Network Australia (CNA) is a not-for-profit organisation that supports Australian Catholic schools through collaboration. CNA was established to procure and manage a private telecommunications network and associated technology services. CNA participants’ connections have since deepened to share expertise and experience within and across jurisdictions. CNA has also fostered sharing approaches to support Australian Catholic educators and their communities to enhance student learning and school administration through the use of technology.
​
CNA now supports over 800,000 students, teachers and staff across over 1400 sites in Australia.
CNA represents its participants when purchasing products or services, with a strong focus on flexibility, choice and equitable access for all, irrespective of size or location.
