The 2017 IEEE Conference on Software Engineering Education and Training (CSEE&T) takes place in Savannah, Georgia, November 7-9, 2017. Since the first CSEE&T, software engineering education has changed a great deal. In 1986, software engineering education was largely done by industry, with just a few academic programs in place. Since then, software engineering degree programs have emerged at all levels, with increased attention to specialty areas. Software engineering professionalism initiatives resulted in the certification and licensing of software engineers in many countries.
Our plans for the conference include the Academy on Software Engineering Education and Training (ASEET) on November 7, keynote talks by Dick Fairley and Mark Paulk, and publication opportunities for selected papers in a special issue of the Journal of Systems and Software (JSS).

JOURNAL OF SYSTEMS AND SOFTWARE PARTNERSHIP!
CSEE&T 2017 is teaming up with the Journal of Systems and Software (JSS) to devote a special issue to select conference papers. All submitted papers will be considered. Priority will be given to papers that address education in the areas of secure software (AQR), agile software engineering, gamification (NDM), and industry/university collaboration (CIA). Authors of selected papers will be notified shortly after their final notification and will be asked to extend their submissions to full-text papers appropriate for publication in an archival journal. The guest editors of the special issue are Hossein Saiedian (University of Kansas, USA) and Hironori Washizaki (Waseda University, Tokyo, Japan). Tentative dates are as follows:
September 15, 2017: Author notification
December 22, 2017: Extended paper submission
