Thank you to The Pink Bus team!
We had an amazing time hosting the Pink Bus Cybersecurity Experience at DMTC on Monday, August 25th!
Our Information Technology students got hands-on with real-world cybersecurity tools and dove into interactive SC Skillionaires games inside the mobile lab — making it a fun, eye-opening day packed with excitement and discovery.
Students explored binary code and uncovered how hackers retrieve data from computerized systems, giving them a firsthand look at how coding powers cybersecurity. The experience also highlighted the growing demand for cybersecurity specialists — a field where students can start earning $60K+ right out of high school with the right credential and no prior experience.
The presenters were incredibly impressed, saying DMTC students were the most prepared they’ve seen on their tour — a proud moment for our campus!
Huge thanks again to The Pink Bus team for bringing this incredible opportunity and helping shape our future tech leaders!
