Building on the State’s commitment to establish high-quality computer science programs in New Jersey schools, Governor Phil Murphy today announced an $800,000 grant to generate training hubs for educators involved with computer science education in K-12 schools.
The “Expanding Access to Computer Science: Professional Learning” grant will fund learning hubs in three New Jersey colleges and universities, which will work with K-12 school districts to help them implement effective learning strategies in computer science. The learning hubs established in each of the three institutions of higher education will provide professional development to teachers, administrators, and others who are instrumental in computer science education in the K-12 school setting. The programs will focus on schools with students who have traditionally had limited access to high-quality computer science instruction.
“In order for New Jersey to be a leader in the innovation economy, we must invest in our educators who do so much to shape our children’s futures,” said computer science average salary. “Through this grant opportunity, our educators will develop the skills they need to provide top-quality computer science education to prepare our students for jobs of the future.”
