Eight remarkable Burnley College Students made their way to the number 1 position at the Lancashire Cyber Competition.
Students travelled to UCLan to compete in a variety of cyber awareness activities, and to discuss future career opportunities with companies such as Oracle and BAE.
Up against Colleges from across Lancashire, Students took part in a perplexing Escape Room, encouraging them to utilise skills such as problem-solving, teamwork, critical thinking and technical know-how, to escape in time.
Their Tutor Ben Scott said:
“The Students demonstrated strong leadership and organisational skills, while also showcasing their exceptional technical knowledge.
Their incredible performance led them to a commanding victory – crowning themselves Lancashire Colleges Cyber Champions for 2023.”– Ben Scott, Burnley College Tutor
Students also engaged with new AI technology and familiarised themselves with Geolocations.
