Cochise College is seeking volunteers for its annual Computer Challenge on Friday, Feb. 27, at the Sierra Vista Campus, 901 N. Colombo Ave. 

The event is expected to draw more than 200 students and 40 advisors from Cochise County high schools and middle schools.  

 

Students will compete for awards and prizes in several events and categories. These include theory tests, such as computer fundamentals and a mystery subject; hands-on competitions, including word processing and digital graphics; speaking competitions, such as professional interviews and extemporaneous speaking; and team events, including decision-making and PC repair. 

 

Volunteers are needed to assist students and advisors and to provide general event support. No computer or technical experience is required.  

Schools that have not reserved a place for this year's Computer Challenge, as well as individuals interested in volunteering, can contact Dan Guilmette at guilmetted@cochise.edu.  

 

Anyone needing an accommodation to attend should contact the Cochise College Accessibility Services at (520) 515-5337 at least 72 hours in advance of the event.
