"I had the privilege of taking a couple of your classes last year. I was able to complete my Associate's degree in Cybersecurity at Coastline and this year I passed the GIAC GSEC as well as the CISSP. Thank you for all your guidance!" -Michael Shin, Coastline student
Coastline College's GenCyber Teachers Summer Camp in Garden Grove, CA was a one-week, non-residential camp for high school teachers, counselors, and librarians. Cybersecurity career and education pathways were the program focus throughout the week, and campers had the opportunity to meet with cybersecurity professionals to discuss cyber careers and real-world cyber scenarios encountered by people working in the field. At the end of the week, teachers presented an overview of the cybersecurity lessons they had developed for their classrooms with an anticipated reach of over 3,200 K-12 students this academic year.

Coastline's GenCyber Girls Summer Camp 2021 was focused on law enforcement and digital forensics. Campers learned how to examine digital evidence using forensics software throughout the week. Support from local, state, and federal law enforcement agencies provided students with a greater understanding of career opportunities. Coastline's Cybersecurity faculty look forward to many more successful outreach activities featuring guest speakers that raise awareness about cybersecurity and law enforcement careers.
