Computer Networking
Discovering the technologies that make the internet possible
The networking sessions will teach you how to build a small network, how to troubleshoot network issues, and how to create a secure computer network. You’ll learn the basics of the internet, switches, routers, wiring and more.
At EDUcamp you’ll benefit from daily devotionals and Bible challenge sessions that will strengthen your faith and help you develop a strong biblical worldview. Camp instructors will demonstrate how you can glorify God by using each new skill.
