Did you know that there are currently over 70,000 unfilled jobs in California in the field of Computer Science? This creates a tremendous opportunity for secondary schools to begin offering introductory courses in Computer Science to help position students to become college and career ready.
The Fresno County Superintendent of Schools is now a Regional Partner with Code.org to provide no-cost curriculum, teacher training and on-going support to help teachers to be able to teach these courses.
We will be hosting several information workshops for site and district administrators and counselors to learn more about this tremendous opportunity.
More information can be found in our Informational Flyer.
Our next workshops will be held on October 11 at the FCSS office. We have a morning workshop (8:30-11:30) and an afternoon workshop (12:15 – 3:15) available. We will also host additional workshops on October 25 and Nov. 6.
