What is CSEdWeek? 

December 4-10, 2023

Computer Science Education Week is an annual call to action to inspire K-12 students to learn computer science, advocate for equity, and celebrate the contributions of students, teachers, and partners to the field. 

Our goal is to celebrate Computer Science Education Week by ensuring equitable access to hands-on computer science experiences in a welcoming, family-friendly environment. We believe in inclusivity and aspire to ignite interest in computer science education across generations. Ultimately, we aim to foster computer science awareness and create a lasting impact by engaging a diverse audience and nurturing a passion for technology.

We invite you to contribute your time and expertise as a volunteer to make these events unforgettable. Please express your interest and availability by completing the following form.
