2Sigma School Receives STEM.org Accreditation™


Santa Clara, CA (Jan 06, 2023) — 2Sigma School, a premier online school for advanced computer science education, is a proud recipient of the STEM.org Accreditation™ trustmark.

STEM is a curriculum based on the idea of educating students in four specific disciplines — science, technology, engineering and mathematics — in an interdisciplinary and applied approach. Rather than teach the four disciplines as separate and discrete subjects, STEM integrates them into a cohesive learning paradigm based on real-world applications.

"2Sigma School's role in the educational ecosystem (both direct & indirect) has placed it in the unique, but challenging position of leading others by example, while striving for continued improvement of its program in the ever-changing, highly competitive 21st century global economy," Andrew Raupp, Founder and Executive Director of STEM.org.
"“We are extremely excited to be awarded the STEM.org Accreditation," says Vishal Goenka, founder/CEO, 2Sigma School. "We believe that this accreditation gives an endorsement to the highly personalized education experiences we deliver to our students, focusing on building core expertise in computational thinking and preparing our young generation for the careers of the future in this AI-enabled world. "
