What our community thinks
“After telling my employer that I was participating in the NCL, I was given more cybersecurity tasks in my day to day responsibilities.”
- Andre McDearmon, NCL Player
“The scouting reports, coach’s dashboard, and my ability to track and observe my students progress in the games has been instrumental in monitoring engagement and learning.”
- Angela Kern, NCL Coach
“When I see NCL on a student’s resume, I automatically know that student has a passion for the cybersecurity industry and real-life skills developed through the competition.”
- Anna Schuh, University Recruiter, CrowdStrike
