During the Regional Challenge, teams (3-4 students) work together to answer timed multiple-choice and short-answer questions. There are two tracks for the 2022-2023 Challenge: in person and virtual. You can view more about the two tracks here. If you are interested in participating in-person and have questions, please find the contact information for your Regional Challenge Organizer below. If you do not see an in-person event in your area, you can still participate virtually. Registration for the 2022-2023 Challenge cycle (in-person or virtual) is now open!
