Edwin De Guzman

My CSTA Story

My journey with the Computer Science Teachers Association began in 2011, when I was a young educator seeking growth. Through active participation in seminars, workshops, and curriculum use, I strengthened my teaching practice/career. In 2020, I joined CSTA Philippines as a regional member, and in 2021, I served as Vice President for Communications, leading teacher training, collaborations and partnerships.

Driven by my advocacy to improve CS education, I helped equip educators and enthusiasts nationwide.

In 2025, I was elected as President of the CSTA Philippines. I now lead collaborations with NGOs, the private sector, and the government to expand impact, build networks, and create more opportunities to grow and reach greater heights.

My journey with CSTA reflects a deep commitment to service, leadership, and advocacy. From a young teacher seeking growth to leading a national chapter, I remain dedicated to ensuring that every educator is equipped, every learner is empowered, and computer science education continues to thrive in the Philippines.
