For anyone who lives in Houston or the surrounding areas, I will be hosting our 3rd annual CertOber event at the James D. Eggers Instructional Support Center (ISC Building) in Humble ISD. This event is offered at NO COST to students and community members, but space is minimal, so you must go through Eventbrite to reserve your seat.

I’m excited to announce the 3rd Annual CertOber Event, hosted at the James D. Eggers Instructional Support Center (ISC Building).
This five-day, hands-on certification bootcamp is designed to prepare students for the new CompTIA Tech+ certification—a powerful first step into the world of technology, cybersecurity, and digital literacy.
I wanted to ensure your parents and kids are aware of this opportunity, which is open to all students in our community, including parents. There is no cost for the tickets, and they are going fast.
