Briefing with Gov. Asa Hutchinson on K-12 Computer Science Education
March 22, 3:30 pm ET
Governors and education leaders at all levels - together with nonprofit, industry, and philanthropic leaders - have worked together to make unprecedented strides in expanding access to the critical area of computer science education. However, there is more work to be done to ensure all students have the opportunity to participate in rigorous computer science courses - and to fill thousands of open jobs that require computer science skills.
Please join Grantmakers for Education, the National Governors Association and Code.org for an exclusive virtual stakeholder briefing with Governor Asa Hutchinson and leading computer science funders to discuss collaboration opportunities in K-12 CS education.
Speakers:
- Eva Giglio, CME Group Foundation
