The Expanding Computing Education Pathways (ECEP) Alliance is thrilled to announce a new grant from Siegel Family Endowment (SFE), a partnership that will accelerate our mission to facilitate systemic change in CS and AI education.
Expanding access to and participation in computing education took center stage in March 2026, as the Expanding Computing Education Pathways (ECEP) Alliance convened its annual Summit at the J.J. Pickle Research Campus at The University of Texas at Austin.
In March, ECEP held its annual Summit in Minneapolis. The event convened ECEP state teams from 27 states and the territory of Puerto Rico and highlighted state-level strategies for overcoming issues to access in computer science education (CSEd). Action-oriented sessions provided tangible lessons on increasing CSEd access and opportunity to students of all backgrounds and navigating challenges in the education space.
The
ECEP (Expanding Computing Education Pathways) Alliance co-located its annual Summit in May with the Research on Equitable and Sustained Participation in Engineering, Computing, and Technology (
RESPECT) Conference in Atlanta.
