Training Day
For the fifth year in a row, the Portland OWASP chapter is proud to host our information security training day! This will be an excellent opportunity for the local Portland security community to receive top quality information security and application security training for prices far lower than normally offered. It’s also a great chance to network with other local infosec and appsec enthusiasts and meet those who share your interests.
The 5th annual OWASP Portland 2020 Training Day date will be on September 23, 2020.

Mentorship
What It Is
We’re in the business of helping people grow. Whether you are a beginner, and expert, or somewhere in between, we want to help you develop as a professional. Our mentorship program runs for 6 months. We work to pair you with someone who has experience or is interest in the same area you are looking to mentor or be mentored. It’s about relationships, hands on keyboards, questions, advice. A lot of the program is what you make out of the relationship we seed you with.
How to Get Involved
