Kids Code Camps Are A Growing Business


administrator

Recommended Posts

Hi,

 

We've been getting more and more code camps signing up with StudioWeb recently. So I took a look around, and I can see why ... lots of parents want their kids to learn code, and lots of parents like sending their kids to camp - two great reasons! 

 

;)

 

So I just wrote an article talking about code camps and so I figured I'd let the forum know.

 

Oh by the way, I am updating the forum software and opening it back up in a few weeks.

 

Thanks!

Stefan

That is a good idea. I am a volunteer with the CyberPatriot program. CyberPatriot is a program from the Air Force Association to teach school age kids cyber security, it is a nation wide (although I think I have seen Canadian teams involved) middle school/high school level cyber security team competition for school teams and ROTC, Civil Air Patrol Cadets, Navy Sea Cadets and other such organizations.

 

They also offer interested organizations support and material to teach summer time cyber security camps. The goal being to teach kids how to safely be active online, but also get kids interested in a career in cyber security. It is estimated we are some thing like 6 million cyber experts short of what we need and the US government sees it as a national security issue.
