Computer science teachers association (CSTA)

How to Join CSTA + Your Local Chapter

1) Visit CSTeachers.org and Click "Join CSTA"

Choose from a free Basic Membership and a CSTA+ Membership, which gives you resources, discounts, and professional development for just $50 per year.

NEW: $10 from each CSTA+ Membership fee goes to YOUR local chapter to build and support your computer science education community.

2) Select "Find Your Chapter" in the "Chapters" drop down menu

Search for your local CSTA Chapter. You may join as many chapters as you would like. Chapters currently active in New York are: 

  • Capital District 
  • Long Island
  • Lower Hudson Valley
  • Mid-Hudson Valley
  • New York City
  • North Country
  • Staten Island
  • Western NY


Other Related Groups:

  • CSTA Engage (CSTA's National Chapter Meetings run by a rotating group of local chapters)
  • Rochester/Finger Lakes (Currently a Google Group, not a CSTA Chapter)

3) Participate in Chapter Meetings + Leadership

Local chapters are the beating heart of CSTA. They build community among computer science teachers who are often isolated in their schools, provide professional development to help teachers improve their craft, and connect local teacher voices to the national computer science education community.


CSTA Leaders are elected each year by their members to organize meetings, provide resources, and build the local CS education community. Ask your leaders about opportunities to lead a meeting, provide space, and start helping with leadership responsibilities.

4) Don't have a Local Chapter? Start your own!

CSTA provides guidance, support, and available grant funding for eligible chapters. Are you based in the Finger Lakes, Rochester, Southern Tier, Central New York, or the Mohawk Valley? You might want to consider starting a CSTA Chapter for your region! How to start a chapter:

  • Members interested in forming a new chapter must complete and submit a chapter formation application. 
  • Individuals interested in forming a new chapter must be current members of CSTA in good standing. Potential chapter members listed on the formation application should be CSTA members in good standing as well. Learn more here.

5) Attend the CSTA Conference every July

 CSTA 2022’s educational program is crafted by teachers for teachers and focuses on supporting you both in your classroom and your personal professional development, whether you’re new to teaching computer science or you’re entering your twentieth year.
