Please see the information below regarding The inaugural Presidential Cybersecurity Education Award.
The Presidential Cybersecurity Education Award is bestowed by the United States Secretary of Education
(Secretary) on educators in the field of cybersecurity to honor their contribution to the education of our
nation's students.
The award is presented annually to two educators-one at the elementary level and one at the
secondary level-who demonstrate superior achievement in instilling skills, knowledge, and passion
with respect to cybersecurity and cybersecurity-related subjects. The award recognizes demonstrated
superior educator accomplishment as well as academic achievement by the educator's students.
The inaugural Presidential Cybersecurity Education Award nomination period will close on January 31, 2020. Anyone may nominate an educator for this honor; self-nominations are permitted as well. For example, a computer science teacher who teaches a unit on cybersecurity may qualify. To nominate or apply, visit here.------------------------------
