Professional Learning
Level-Up Your CS Teaching
Whether you’re new to computer science, new to inquiry-based teaching, or experienced with both, we can help you elevate your content knowledge and develop inclusive instructional strategies!
Online and In-Person Professional Development
We offer training opportunities for new and returning teachers who will be teaching UTeach CS Principles and UTeach CS A courses. Our professional development workshops focus on mastering the course content, AP requirements, and project-based instructional strategies necessary for success. We strongly recommend that teachers attend our College Board–endorsed professional development before teaching a UTeach CS course for the first time. Our professional development may be substituted in place of attending an AP Institute training.
