TCS received a Silver Stevie® in the Corporate Social Responsibility Program of the Year category for its Ignite My Future In School (IMFIS) program, a first-of-its-kind, multi-million dollar initiative that leverages computational thinking and new teaching resources as a catalyst to transform the way K-12 students learn across America. The program has a vision of engaging 20,000 educators and 1 million students over a five year period; and in its first school year has already engaged 2,500+ educators through in-person full-day professional development and virtual sessions, reaching 155,000+ students, and gaining national recognition from nearly a dozen Congressional leaders.
