CyberPatriot Program Contest Extended Until November 15th!
Due to an overwhelming response from Arkansas teachers preparing their students for CyberPatriot certification, the quiz system experienced a high volume of users, temporarily preventing access for some. We’re happy to announce that testing will resume on November 1st, and to accommodate everyone, we’ve extended the contest deadline to November 15th.
This gives you extra time to participate and ensure you are entered into the contest.
Miss the deadline? Don’t worry—students can still pursue CyberPatriot certification after the contest ends, as the program will continue beyond this date.
