Our Founder & CEO Carlos Vazquez is digging into that question this Friday as he moderates "Artificial Intelligence (AI): The Next Frontier" at The Summit: Building Bridges.

It's a full day bringing together leaders from both sides of the bridge to talk networking, access to capital and new opportunities.

Think you know Canva? Dr. Mabe did too. 👀

After an ISTE session on Canva Code, she discovered a whole new side of the platform! From vibe coding and interactive lesson experiences to collecting student responses without leaving Canva.

No coding background required. Just a prompt, a little experimenting, and a lot of possibilities for the classroom. 💡

Read Dr. Mabe’s latest reflection and see why Canva Code might be worth exploring for your next lesson.

AI in research isn’t just a cheating problem. It’s a thinking problem. 🤖📚

In the latest Dr. Mabe’s Corner, Dr. Mabe explores a bigger question for educators: How do we let students use AI without letting it replace the research process itself?

The answer isn’t banning AI. It’s teaching students how to use it as a tool while still doing the work that builds critical thinking: finding credible sources, reading closely, evaluating perspectives, synthesizing ideas, and forming their own arguments.

Because the goal was never to keep AI out of research. It’s to keep students actively thinking through it.

🔐 One interview can change a career.

This week, our Project SECURE Cohort 2 participants took another big step toward entering the cybersecurity workforce as they wrapped up the United Way Miami professional development series with live mock interviews at LAB Miami.

Professionals from Visa, HEICO, MTN, and Archangel Tech volunteered their time to interview our students, provide real-time feedback, and share insights from their own career journeys. For many participants, it was their first opportunity to experience the interview process with industry leaders.

Watching our students walk into the room prepared, confident, and ready to tell their stories was a proud moment. The growth they've shown over the past several weeks is exactly what Project SECURE is all about.

Project SECURE (Skills & Education for Cybersecurity Upskilling, Readiness, and Employment) helps prepare underserved talent for careers in cybersecurity through industry-recognized training, hands-on labs, professional development, mentorship, and connections to employers.

A huge thank you to United Way Miami, LAB Miami, and each of our volunteer interviewers for investing your time, expertise, and encouragement in Miami's next generation of cybersecurity professionals.

The future of cybersecurity is being built right here in our community. 💙
