I personally found that this course had a very relaxed atmosphere, but also contained a high amount of high level content, which truly changed my experience with computers. Although the content can be difficult, overall I had a great time, and I'm sure if you sign up you will too.

The teachers were so friendly and helpful. They went over the most important aspects in cybersecurity. My kids learnt a lot. However, Arar has experienced bullying from the two boys who are 14 and 15r years old. The problem is that the trainers have no control on the students in class which may c...

I am really sorry for this experience.
We had a couple of characters in the class that were definitely challenging.
I believe that your son had a recurring disagreement with one of these characters.
The action we took was the HQ team spoke directly to these children and their parents.
When on the next day this did not improve we split the class and made sure they were kept separated at breaktimes.
After which I believe the problem was resolved.

pros: great teacher (very patient) interesting topic, and lots of linux skills learnt.
cons: annoying kids in the class and in the break room , needed more managing.(2 break rooms) Computers could be ridiculously slow at times, otherwise the course was great.
FunTech Response
We have a mix of children in the group, some who were super excited, who I think you are referring to.
When running various programs especially for hacking, these can take a while to run through to find the correct code.
Glad you found it an interesting topic.

The camp was super fun.
The tutorial videos were a bit lagy though and for the metasploit exercises it didn't specify what we had to do which made our teacher very confused and frustrated. Overall great camp.
FunTech Response
The video's may have lagged due to the internet connect at the time.
Sorry about the metasplot exercise, I shall pass this onto our development team to check.
Glad to hear hear you thought that overall the camp was great!

Educational, relaxed, and overall very fun. Covers a decent range of topics from social engineering to password-cracking. The one flaw with this course, in my eyes, is the fact that it is very Linux-based. The systems you use and hack are all running on (mostly outdated) Linux operating systems, ...

This is an amazing course. It helps us learn how to truly hack. It also teaches us how to protect ourselves against hackers. I will consider to do another course. Although, it had some problems with unmannered peers. Although we still learned the whole course and it was amazing. Thank you!
FunTech Response
I am sorry that you experienced this.
Two students who started out as great friends, did a 180 and clashed, which sadly happens sometimes.
I believe separating the two resolved this matter.
I am glad you learnt new skills and thought the course was amazing.
See you again next summer!
