Lehigh Carbon Community College GenCyber Camp for teachers of grades 7-12 will be held 8:30 a.m. - 4 p.m. June 12 - 16 on the Schnecksville campus.
An information session is Feb. 9.
The camp is a three-credit special topics course at no charge to the student. Teachers will be compensated with a daily stipend. An additional stipend is included for participation in the virtual pre-camp and post-camp sessions.
The camp provides opportunities for teachers in Carbon, Lehigh, Northampton and Berks counties to collaborate and explore cybersecurity topics that are appropriate for secondary age groups.
Topics include: computer components, computer networks, cryptography, cybersecurity, safe online behavior and cyber ethics.
LCCC received a grant for the one-week professional development course for elementary, middle and high school teachers. The National Security Agency and the GenCyber program fund summer camps throughout the United States focused on K-12 teachers.
