In 2020 NCC introduced its Virtual Online Computer Camp. Since then NCC has conducted each year in person and virtual camps. At the virtual camps, campers enjoy the NCC camp experience while at home. In 2024 NCC is once again conducting in person residential camps, in person day camps, and virtual camps. The NCC curriculum is 100% virtual learning compatible. At the NCC Virtual Online Camp, campers from all over the US, coast to coast, learn, have fun, socialize, and make new friends.

Here is how the NCC Virtual Online Camp works:
At the traditional NCC camp each camper is provided a computer loaded with NCC software. At the virtual camp each camper uses his/her home computer to access the virtual NCC cloud computer assigned to the camper. The camper’s cloud computer has the identical NCC software. Virtual online campers enjoy the same well known curriculum, the same effective learning, the same fun software, and the same popular staff.
What distinguishes the NCC Virtual Online Camp from other virtual computer camps?
NCC has developed a novel virtual learning system. This system uses cutting edge cloud technology to give campers an ideal learning experience. Unlike other virtual camps, NCC provides each camper with their “own” virtual computer. This computer has 100 gigs of NCC software for excellent learning.
