Arkansas Tech University-Ozark Campus student Julie Boerlin of Tilly earned first place in the 2026 Microsoft Office Specialist Word State Championship spring qualifier.<\/p>\n

Boerlin will represent Arkansas at the 2026 Microsoft Office Specialist U.S. National Championship June 15-17 in Nashville, Tenn. She will compete in her exam track, network with other top students from around the United States and celebrate her certification success. One winner per track will be named the U.S. national champion and earn a trip to represent the United States in the 2026 Microsoft Office Specialist World Championship July 26-29 in Anaheim, Calif.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m truly honored to receive this accomplishment and thankful for everyone who supported me along the way,\u201d said Boerlin. \u201cIt means a lot to have this opportunity recognized, and I\u2019m excited for what\u2019s ahead.\u201d<\/p>\n
