This course helps high school teachers introduce important cybersecurity principles in their CS classrooms. It provides full lessons with hands-on, inquiry-based activities that allow students to explore for themselves how cybersecurity works.

We designed this online professional development course to provide a flexible, deep learning experience you can complete at your own pace. Course content includes meaningful and interactive activities focused on application to your CS classroom — you’ll do much more than just read and watch. Plus, you will experience asynchronous collaboration with other CS educators as you both give and get feedback and exchange ideas.

You will receive full access to the online course for a 10-week term from April 7, 2025 to June 15, 2025. You can complete the course by spending about an hour per week or completing it in brief sprints. While we have suggested timing, you may complete it at your own pace.

When the term ends on June 15, 2025, you will no longer be able to progress toward your course assignments and activities, but you will still be able to access course materials. You will receive a signed digital certificate indicating you have completed 8 hours of professional learning.

Please be aware that registrants will NOT receive the invitation email from Coursera immediately after registering, you will be added to the course at the end of the week. We appreciate your understanding.

NOTE: The last enrollment date is Friday, May 30 by 11:59 p.m. EST.
