Focused on expanding the cybersecurity workforce pipeline, WeTeach_Cyber provides high-quality, engaging training for K-12 educators, administrators, and counselors. WeTeach_Cyber fulfills this mission by coordinating with school districts, industry partners, and cybersecurity organizations to provide impactful content resources, presentations, workshops, and educator collaboratives. The Expanding Pathways in Computing (EPIC) group at The University of Texas at Austin's Texas Advanced Computing Center (TACC) serves as the foundational organization for WeTeach_Cyber, a project dedicated to providing cybersecurity education for every student regardless of race, gender, income, or location.
The WeTeach_Cyber Collaborative is a professional development initiative to build and enhance cybersecurity education in our nation's schools. One of the most important ways to increase the availability of cybersecurity courses in our high schools is to invest in the education of our nation's cybersecurity teachers. The goal of the WeTeach_Cyber Collaborative is to increase the number of Texas high school CTE teachers who can effectively prepare students for cybersecurity post-secondary opportunities and careers.
WeTeach_Cyber has partnered with CYBER.ORG to offer cybersecurity webinars and workshops at no cost to Texas teachers. This initiative aims to support and enhance the professional development opportunities available to school educators, specifically focusing on cybersecurity.
