The Advanced Certificate in Computer Education (CCE) from the University at Albany is designed to address the needs of teachers who seek to deliver effective and engaging curricula in computer science and/or introduce the new literacy of computational thinking to K-12 students. 


The CCE program provides teachers the knowledge, skills and competencies to teach introductory computer science courses such as Exploring Computer Science and Computer Science Principles. The program will also help teachers to develop their own developmentally appropriate curricula in computing for students in K-s settings. This Certificate of Graduate Study provides a competitive advantage for teachers with interests in the rapidly growing area of computer science and information technology. 


All courses in the CCE program are also applicable to the Master's Degree in Curriculum Development and Instructional Technology.
