Computer Science Coaching is designed for teachers and instructional leaders and prepares them to lead professional development about the Computer Science SOLs.

Middle School Elective: Computer Science Discoveries prepares educators to teach the Code.org elective Computer Science Discoveries by unpacking the modules they will use in the classroom while developing a deeper understanding of computer science and computational thinking.

Middle School Elective (CSD) Part II further prepares educators to teach the Code.org elective Computer Science Discoveries by unpacking the last four modules while developing a deeper understanding of computer science and computational thinking.

Computer Science Foundations introduces educators to the Exploring Computer Science (ECS) curriculum. ECS is a full-year introductory computer science course that prepares high school students for future study in a variety of computer science domains, including cybersecurity, web design, and networking. ECS is funded by the National Science Foundation.

AP Computer Science Principles is a college-level high school CS course that covers the foundational concepts of computer science and challenges students to explore how computing and technology can impact the world. This professional learning course prepares educators to teach this class to 9-12th grade students using the Code.org AP CSP curriculum, providing a primer to the course content and the AP exam.
