By AccessWDUN Staff

Thanks to a $94,000 grant from the National Security Agency's GenCyber program, the National Cyber Warrior Academy at the University of North Georgia will again host area high school students whose career interests lie in cyber operations or security.

Now in its third year, the NCWA GenCyber summer camp is a free, 10-day residential cyber academy for 40 participants held on UNG’s Dahlonega Campus. The program prepares students for military, government and civilian cybersecurity career paths with emphasis on personal, organizational, and national awareness of digital security. This year's camp will run from June 20-30.
