The 7 Week Challenge (7WC) is a series of events hosted by Vincent Massey’s Computer Science Club (VMCSC) in partnership with Canada’s oldest and largest high school hackathon, MasseyHacks. The 7WC is an extension of MasseyHacks’ goal to inspire innovation, the development of big ideas, and a passion for learning.
Each week will feature a new topic as well as a diverse spectrum of workshops, activities, and challenges for students to further apply their knowledge. Below are the weeks and a general overview of each one!
Admission to the 7 Week Challenge is completely free! We will provide all the resources, mentorship, and support needed for each week’s activities and challenges.
Due to local health restrictions, we will be hosting the 7 Week Challenge virtually.
The 7WC will be held through Discord. Workshops and ceremonies will be delivered through a web-conferencing solution.
Any student in grade 7 to grade 12 can register to be a participant. If you've graduated from high school, we welcome you to apply as a mentor!
Not at all — in fact, we encourage newcomers to come and participate in the 7 Week Challenge.
Although guided workshop activities and projects are primarily catered toward individuals, we encourage you to collaborate with fellow participants to discuss solutions and ideas.
Once you’ve submitted your application, keep an eye out on your email and application dashboard for further updates.
To ensure an event is safe and enjoyable for everyone, we ask that hackers follow the 7WC Code of Conduct. If you have any questions or would like to inform us of any issues, please email us at hello@vmcs.club.
