Learning Pathway
Find the right stage for your child.
Six stages from first build to world-class robotics — matched to age and readiness, not just grade.

Inside the Program
What the stages actually look like.
Building, testing, driving, fixing — the same loop at every stage, with the stakes rising as students move up.
Two Ways to Learn
Regular program or competition team?
Most students start in the regular program. Teams are an optional next step — entered by assessment, never by pressure.
Open enrollment
Regular Program
- Weekly classes matched to your child’s stage.
- Project-based curriculum with visible builds every term.
- Progress reviews and a clear promotion path.
- A complete pathway on its own — competition optional.
Entry by team assessment
Competition Team
- A season schedule: training, scrimmages, tournaments.
- Deeper commitment — for the student and the family.
- Coached team roles and engineering notebooks.
- For students ready to test their skills for real.
Short on time? Start with Summer Camp.
One week of building, programming, and teamwork — a low-commitment way to see if the pathway fits.
Questions Parents Ask
Age, experience, and moving up.
What age can my child start?
Programs start at age 5. The five entry groups (Ages 5-7, G1-G2, G3-G4, G5-G7, G8-G12) map onto the six stages — a trial class confirms the right fit.
Does my child need any experience?
No. Stages are matched by age and readiness, not experience. New students at any age start at the right point of the pathway — not the back of the line.
How does my child move to the next stage?
By readiness, not just birthdays. Instructors track progress through each stage’s milestones and recommend promotion when a student is ready.
Is competition required?
No. The regular program is a complete pathway on its own. Competition teams are an optional branch, entered through a team assessment when a student is ready and interested.
