Office of Youth Services Offers Computer Science Summer Camp

DECATUR, Ga.—The Office of Youth Services, in partnership with Reach for Excellence, will host the Youth De-Coded summer day camp, July 9-20 at Marist School, 3790 Ashford Dunwoody Road NE, Atlanta, GA 30319.

Youth De-Coded provides opportunities for DeKalb County students to receive training in computer science, leadership development and goal setting, while also acquiring marketable employment skills that will assist them in securing future employment in coding.

Studies currently show that coding is one of the leading career fields in technology and there are major lacks in securing professionally trained individuals in the United States, which has caused many companies to outsource to other countries. 

For further information on Youth De-Coded events, please contact Mussettee H. Hill, (404) 687-7192 or mhill@dekalbcountyga.gov.

Applications and additional recruitment information may be accessed at www.dekalbcountyga.gov/youth-services/upcoming-events. Application materials may also be requested from the Office of Youth Services by calling (404) 687-7195.
