What
Become A CyberPatriot Youth Mentor: Validate your Leadership Skills

Description

Since the 2015 academic year, the regional coalition of schools known as the Midwest Colloquium for Information Systems Security Education (MCISSE) has been dedicated to increasing the number of Middle and High School students who participate in the National CyberPatriot Competition in Michigan by funding and supporting the Michigan CyberPatriot Program. The CyberPatriot program provides hands-on STEM education for students and opens the doors for STEM career pathways. Far too many local School districts and student groups across the country are not yet aware of the program and its advantages.
Join this session to learn how this program works and how you can become a Mentor for this program. Volunteer coaches and mentors are critical for the program’s success. These volunteers don’t have to be cyber experts but should have good technical knowledge. You just need a passion for teaching or mentoring students, MCISSE will show you just how easy it can be to validate your skills and pay it forward.
