Computer Science Professional Learning Programs for Middle & High School Teachers!

SUMMER KICKOFF JUNE 7–11 (MON-FRI)

WHO ARE THESE PROGRAMS FOR?
Teachers who are implementing Code.org’s CS DISCOVERIES (grades 6-10) or CS PRINCIPLES (grades 9-12) course in 2021-22 school year can apply.

PROGRAM FEE
For Nebraska teachers, the cost of the yearlong CS Discoveries or CS Principles professional learning program is only $300 per participant. That’s 90% off the national cost thanks to our generous supporters and industry partners.

Scholarships are available: Do you teach in a high-need school, or a school with diverse student population? Is funding for computer science limited in your district? We have limited scholarships available for teachers in Nebraska. Our scholarships cover the full $300 program fee.
