The NSA/CSS program to identify National Centers of Academic Excellence
in Cyber Defense is celebrating its 20th anniversary in 2019. The success of this
program in certifying over 270 programs has greatly influenced how many institutions
are developing and evolving their Cybersecurity curriculums. On November 30, 2018 ABET
announced their accreditation criteria for Undergraduate Cybersecurity Programs.
This effort by one of the primary accrediting agencies in higher education will be sure to also exert great influence over the future direction of
Cybersecurity programs.

The IS2020 is a joint ACM and AIS initiative that, for the first time since 2002,
includes EDSIG’s participation. A taskforce on the Information Systems (IS2020)
Model Curriculum was created following a report and recommendation of an Exploratory Taskforce.
This panel seeks to introduce the work of this taskforce as well as engage the
IS education community in this effort. The taskforce seeks to facilitate broad feedback
during the IS2020 development process through surveys and open feedback requests.
Panelists will introduce key components of this process and seek input and feedback.
This session should be of interest to all attendees, especially faculty developing college-level
curricula in Information Systems. The nature of EDSIG’s participation will be elaborated
and opportunities to participate in future development will be shared.
