FAQ

TECHNICAL REQUIREMENTS

Stable Internet and a device that has the Zoom app. You will also need pencil and paper on hand for scratchwork.

WILL THERE BE HOMEWORK?

Out-of-class assignments will be given to solidify concepts and act as enrichment, but all homework given will be optional.

WHAT'S YOUR REFUND POLICY?

Full refunds will be given, minus a $20 processing fee, for cancellations requested before 6/13. No refunds may be issued after 6/13.

DO I NEED TO KNOW HOW TO CODE?

No, but it is preferred. In general, coding will not be the focus of this summer camp, but rather a tool used in a cybersecurity context. Any necessary coding concepts will be reviewed beforehand.
