- AP Cybersecurity trains students in the field and aligns closely with standard first-year
collegiate cybersecurity courses. Students explore defense-in-depth strategies and learn
to address specific vulnerabilities, attacks, mitigations, and detection measures across a
variety of domains including physical spaces, computer networks, devices, applications,
and data.

- AP Networking trains students in the field and aligns closely with standard first-year
collegiate introductory networking courses. Students explore network hardware, logical
and physical configuration, the use of protocols to enable reliable and accurate
transmission of data between hosts, and relevant security practices that protect the
transmission of data within and between computer networks.

- AP Computer Science A introduces students to computer science through programming. Fundamental topics in this course include the design of solutions to problems, the use of data structures to organize large sets of data, the development and implementation of algorithms to process data and discover new information, the analysis of potential solutions, and the ethical and social implications of computing systems. The course emphasizes object-oriented programming and design using the Java programming language.
- AP Computer Science Principles introduces students to the breadth of the field of computer science. In this course, students will learn to design and evaluate solutions and to apply computer science to solve problems through the development of algorithms and programs. They will incorporate abstraction into programs and use data to discover new knowledge. Students will also explain how computing innovations and computing systems, including the Internet, work, explore their potential impacts, and contribute to a computing culture that is collaborative and ethical.
