Owens Community College Cybersecurity Camp June 22 – 24

Owens Community College Workforce and Community Services invites kids in grades 7-9 to a cybersecurity camp June 22 – 24. This camp is part of the Kids Classes and Camp series at the Dana Center, located at 458 Depot Road, Perrysburg, at the Owens Toledo-area Campus. Cost is $25.

“If we think about getting students excited about cybersecurity and what that looks like, starting them earlier on, even if they don’t go for the cybersecurity pathway, at least they’ve got that in their mind, at least they’re thinking about it,” said Eli Cochran, the camp’s featured instructor and a cybersecurity instructor from Delaware County Career Center.

No pre-requisites are required to attend the camp. Kids will learn a variety of skills at the camp, including coding and encryption through hands-on activities. They also will take part in interactive conversations and friendly competition.

The class will be held from 9 a.m. – 3 p.m. the first two days and 9 a.m. – 12 p.m. the final day. Space is limited. For more information, contact Workforce and Community Services at wcs@owens.edu or (567) 661-7357.
