Facilitator-led Professional Learning Program
The yearlong professional learning programs all follow a similar design. Regional Partners across the country provide our programs and offer local workshops led by trained facilitators. In addition to local offerings, there are several national cohorts being supported by Code.org’s Regional Partners.
Summer Workshops
Attend a multi-day summer workshop to get familiar with the curriculum and prepare for the school year.
Academic Year Workshops
Attend workshops during the year to receive support as you teach the curriculum.
Community Support
Collaborate with your regional cohort of teachers and get the support of a nationwide online teacher community.
Self-Paced: Jump Start Your Preparation for CS and AI Foundations
While the CS and AI Foundations Self-paced modules will not be ready until later in spring, you can get a jump start on your preparation to teach this curriculum through a few of our other self-paced modules. While these modules are not specifically tuned for CS and AI Foundations, they prepare teachers by exploring foundational content relevant to CS and AI.
Through reading, viewing videos, completing interactive puzzles, and reflecting on your learning, you will develop your own understanding while preparing to teach computer science in your classroom.
After completing one of these modules, you will:
Learn how to navigate the Code.org website and teacher tools.
Gain a high level understanding of the content, tools, and pedagogy.
