We want to extend a personal invitation for ECEP Connect, a virtual event where all states – regardless of ECEP Alliance membership status – have an opportunity to build community, share knowledge, and plug into ECEP’s network of state and national leaders working to broaden participation in computing. ECEP Connect offers a series of virtual workshops, led by state and national leaders in broadening participation in computing. If you are working on K-12 computer science education policy, pathways, or practice, you will gain access to resources that will help you develop strategies to advance computing education in your state (or states you are working with via your BPC Alliance).
Applications are now open to participate in this annual event focused on connecting individuals working to broaden participation in K-12 computing. This free virtual event is on October 17th from 1-6 PM ET. We encourage you to build a team to attend and spread the word with other computer science education leaders in your state or network.
Learn more about ECEP Connect on our website or reach out directly to Jaci McCune, ECEP Alliance Deputy Director, at jmccune@tacc.utexas.edu.
