–(PR.com)– CodeHS,
a
leading
provider
of
K-12
computer
science
curriculum
and
professional
development,
is
partnering
with
the
Nebraska
Department
of
Education
to
support
computer
science
educators
across
the
state.
This
partnership
was
made
possible
through
a
state-led
initiative
to
expand
access
to
high-quality
computer
science
education.
Following
the
passage
of
the
Computer
Science
and
Technology
Education
Act,
which
requires
all
students
to
take
computer
science
to
graduate,
the
state
established
the
Computer
Science
and
Technology
Education
Fund
to
provide
free
professional
development
to
K–12
educators.
CodeHS
has
trained
thousands
of
educators
nationwide,
equipping
them
with
the
skills
and
confidence
to
teach
high-quality
computer
science
classes.
Through
this
partnership,
Nebraska
teachers
will
have
the
opportunity
to
participate
in
comprehensive
professional
development
workshops
in
preparation
for
the
2025-2026
school
year.
“As
technology
education
and
AI
become
increasingly
integral
to
our
schools
and
daily
lives,
it
is
essential
that
we
equip
teachers
with
the
tools
and
knowledge
to
lead
innovative
computer
science
classes,”
said
Jeremy
Keeshin,
CEO
of
CodeHS.
“Our
partnership
with
the
NDE
will
ensure
that
quality
computer
science
training
is
more
accessible
throughout
the
state.”
The
PD
workshops
will
be
offered
in
both
virtual
and
in-person
formats,
covering
a
range
of
topics
around
pedagogy,
computer
science
topics,
and
content
for
required
Nebraska
CS
courses.
The
professional
development
is
meant
to
meet
the
needs
of
computer
science
teachers
across
the
state,
particularly
those
in
rural
districts.
“When
Nebraska
adopted
its
Computer
Science
and
Technology
standards,
CodeHS
responded
by
developing
and
providing
free,
standards-aligned
instructional
materials
to
teachers
across
the
state,”
said
Shaun
Young,
NDE
Computer
Science
Education
Specialist.
“They’ve
continued
to
be
a
responsive
partner,
supporting
educators
with
professional
development
and
resources
that
reflect
the
needs
of
our
schools
and
businesses.”
Registration
for
the
workshops
is
now
