Robotics Competition Training for ages 12–15
Accommodation options are available for this course
The Competition Training programme is designed for students aged 12 to 15 who already have experience in robotics, coding, and technology, and are ready to take their skills into a competitive, real-world environment. This programme prepares students to compete in FIRST LEGO League and World Robot Olympiad carrying skills that extend far beyond the arena.
Students will work on complex, open-ended challenges that require original thinking, research, and strategic decision-making. They will design, build, and program solutions as part of a team while learning how to perform effectively in high-pressure competition settings, including structured presentations and judging scenarios.
The program develops both technical expertise and essential soft skills such as persistence, discipline, communication, and composure qualities that are critical in competitive STEM environments and beyond.
