Contribute to our next Curricular Guidance Report!

Following the release of the most recent curricular guidance for bachelor’s degree programs in Computer Science (CS2023), the ACM CCECC is updating its corresponding curricular guidance for two-year transfer programs in Computer Science (CS-Transfer2017). As part of this initiative, which will be called CS-Transfer2026, we are in the final stages of identifying the CS2023 Knowledge Areas and Knowledge Units that can be taught during the first two years of a Computer Science program. We invite you to contribute.

Click here to start the survey! If you submit a response, you will be acknowledged as a contributor in the final version of the CS-Transfer202x curricular guidance report.

Join the ACM CCECC and ACM2Y at the 2026 CCSC Regional Conferences!

We will be presenting about our current work at several CCSC Regional Conferences this year. We hope that you can attend one these regional conferences which provide opportunities for getting your work published and to network with faculty from other academic institutions in your region of the United States. Please stop by our exhibitor's table which we are once again sharing with ACM2Y.

Click here to fill out the survey about which CYB, AI, and SEP learning outcomes should be included in our CS-Transfer2026 Curricular Guidance report.

Help with making Bloom's for Computing globally available!

The ACM CCECC is working to make Bloom's for Computing globally available by asking subject matter experts to translate Bloom's for Computing into different world languages. If you would like to contribute to this project by translating the Bloom's for Computing verbs into a language that you know, download the Bloom's for Computing - Submit a Translation spreadsheet file, add the corresponding verb translations to the spreadsheet, and submit to the ACM CCECC as an attachment to the email address specified in the spreadsheet. We will be happy to recognize your contribution on our website. Thank you for your consideration!
