Registration Opens for Girls Go CyberStart
We’re pleased to announce that the Girls Go CyberStart program is available in 2020. Interested states should contact Alan Paller (apaller@sans.org) by October 16, 2019. As states with a gubernatorial announcement of the program have historically increased student participation significantly, NGA is happy to provide governors’ offices with additional information. Please see the attached document with further details on the program, including important dates and testimonials from students, teachers, and state officials. Please feel free to email John Guerriero at jguerriero@nga.org for more details.
