The ECEP Alliance seeks to increase the number and diversity of students in the pipeline to CS degrees by supporting state-level computing education reforms.
#ECEP2025 has begun! The ECEP Alliance seeks to increase the number of students in the pipeline to computer science degrees by supporting CS education reforms.
"We want to increase access to CS opportunities for ALL students!" — Jaci McCune, PhD, ECEP Director
This #CSEdWeek, Google has compiled a library of resources for U.S.-based K-12 educators. Scaling Inclusive Pedagogy is an ECEP-designed course that equips educators with resources necessary to focus on equitable access to CS in schools.

This year so far, we have awarded 5 states with co-sponsorships: up to $15k for each project aimed at expanding inclusion in K-12 computer science. The Co-sponsorship Program is made possible via our partnerships with @Google and @NSF.

Traveling home from Oakland from the @ECEP_CS Summit. What am I bringing home? An amazing network of incredible CS equity advocates, a new bond with an incredible IL team, and a box of chocolates! I am so excited to continue this work at home! @csanchezcrozier@ChariosiTeach
Reflecting on time spent @ECEP_CS summit, I am just in awe with the work & people who are trying to better society by expanding access to CS for all. CS is a social science! Glad to work with PA TEAM @somegoodideas @ProfPayton & equity fellows @wilsandrea@mathematic_AL

The ECEP Leadership team stands alongside the CSEd educators & advocates who promote equity focused dialogue. We strive to put action behind our mission to lead an equity focused project supporting states wherever they enter this work. Thank you #CSTAEquityFellow cohorts!
Can you really be an ally and advocate for historically excluded communities if you stand in direct opposition to the equitable treatment of people in those communities?
The #CSTAEquityFellow cohorts share their response in their post for The Voice: ow.ly/icnr50MR6WN
