One thing to note is that the competition is free! All you need is access to the website.

I have used this as a training for freshman programmers. They can spend time during the summer playing some of the games already there on the web site. I have been amazed how their programming skills improve.

The winners get to to MIT and have their code run on the International Space Station live! That is not a bad resume builder.
