Coaches, mentors, and anyone interested in learning more about the CyberPatriot Program at Cochise College are invited to an informational meeting on Saturday, July 23, from 9- 11 a.m. in classroom 1211 at the Cochise College Sierra Vista Campus Learning Commons.
We will provide an overview about the National Youth Cyber Education Program created by the Air & Space Forces Association to inspire K-12 students in careers in cybersecurity or other science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) disciplines critical to our nation’s future.
“During the kick-off, we will discuss the basics of the CyberPatriot program, where you can get more information and do a walk-through of an official CyberPatriot image,” said Dan Guilmette, CIS/ Cybersecurity instructor. “It is very similar to what the competitors will have to do .”
Cochise College has provided training for Cochise County teams and a location to compete for over ten years. So any potential new coaches can get technical assistance from our college faculty.
If you are a school thinking of having one or more CyberPatriot teams this year for season 15, please join us. Any middle school, home school, or high school can create a team. If you are a parent curious to find out if your student’s school has a CyberPatriot team – join us!
All high schools, middle schools, approved home school programs and JROTC units of all services are invited to participate.
Seating is limited. Please reserve your seat (RSVP) or send questions to Dan Guilmette at guilmetted@cochise.edu.
