Virtual delivery update

In-person, virtual, or hybrid — same curriculum standard.

01

7 tracks, two delivery modes

Every track can run in-person, virtual, or hybrid (some students on-site, some online in the same group).

02

Project-based

Virtual sessions keep the “build something real every session” rule — students just build in software instead of with physical kits.

03

Access to Top Tools

Virtual project work runs through digital tools and modeling environments (simulation, CAD, design software) rather than hardware build kits.
