Are you interested in serving the cybersecurity education community? Consider becoming a subject matter expert serving on one or more curriculum standards panels.
The role of the Curriculum Standards Panels is to continually verify, validate, and enhance assessments, instructional materials, hands-on tutorials, and interactive challenges. Panelists may contribute to one or more Topic Area Working Groups (TAWGs) based on their expertise in teaching, designing, or having relevant work experience in the focal topic area. Panelists may also apply to become a TAWG chair or vice-chair. Panel chairs and vice-chairs become members of the editorial board of the Open Educational Resource (OER) course materials library.
Volunteer panel members are expected to contribute 3-4 hours per month as expert reviewers and evaluators of existing instructional materials. Periodically, the Curriculum Standards Program receives support from federal agencies or corporate sponsors to develop instructional materials. These funds are used to provide stipends to panel members that have been regular contributors to the public resource library of evaluated instructional materials and can increase their time commitment to develop new instructional materials.
All panelist participants will be listed in the Creative Commons License documentation for the course. Panelists participating in at least two-thirds of all panel activities will receive a certificate and registered achievement badge which may be applied towards Continuing Professional Education (CPE) requirements.
