About the Program

The 2025–2026 B’More Secure GenCyber Professional Learning Program is a year-long professional learning community for middle and high school educators in Maryland that will build teacher capacity to integrate cybersecurity concepts into their courses and engage their students in learning about careers and post-secondary opportunities in cybersecurity. We are particularly interested in increasing interest in cybersecurity among students traditionally underrepresented in cyber careers and fields of study (i.e., African America, Hispanic) and strongly encourage educators who work with these populations of students to apply. 

No Coding Experience Required

The program is primarily designed for teachers with little to no cybersecurity content knowledge.
