What’s a Commitment?
#CSforALL commitments are new, specific, and measurable actions aimed at advancing the goal of rigorous and inclusive computer science education for all US youth, and are designed to grow support and momentum for a sustainable K-12 computer science education system in and out of school.
Making a commitment gives organizations an opportunity to announce a new CS effort on a national stage which can be leveraged to bring new partners to the table, increase impact, and grow the footprint of engaged stakeholders.
The 2022 Commitment Categories:
We welcome commitments from the community in the following four categories:
This year’s theme is “Game Changer in CS”.
- Raise Awareness
- Build Capacity
- Increase Equitable Access & Outcomes
