I am looking forward to adding the Security Operations Center Specialist certificate through Ivy Tech Community College for my students. The students that complete two years in the Computer Operations program will have the opportunity to earn 29 college credits from Ivy Tech, the Security Operations Center Specialist certificate, CompTIA Tech+ certification, and the CompTIA Security+ certification.

Thank you to Corey from www.coreycartheyphotography.com for coming to my class to talk to my students about being a professional drone pilot and doing a demonstration with the drone. The two pictures with the white dot are pictures of the drone being 200 feet and 400 feet up in the sky.

We went to MicroCenter today, the students were broken up into groups and given a budget to research and build a computer. They had to include sales tax and stay within the budget they were given. The associates at MicroCenter graded their builds at the end. The team of Aaron, Luke, Chase, and Braxton were picked as having the best build. The team of Ayden, Braden, Zech, and Elijah were picked having the second best build.
