Welcome to DISCOVERY WORKSHOPS
Discovery Weekends. Expert-led workshops on a Saturday or Sunday designed for a variety of audience (student, professional, hobbyist, etc.) with beginner to intermediate skill level. Good if you are:
• enhancing your skills for your thesis / research study / investigatory / capstone project
• starting out on Do-it-Yourself automation/robotics projects
• planning to prototype your product/startup idea/s
Discovery Campus. Expert-led workshops scheduled upon request from schools and learning institutions. Workshops are held onsite at school campuses whether it be high school, college, or university. Good for:
• High School STEM classes
• High School Robotics or SIP teams
• Seminars & Field trip classes for Engineering or Technical/Vocational degree students
• Seminars & Field trip classes for Computer-related degree students (CS, IT, IS, IM)
Discovery Pro. Expert-led workshops scheduled upon request from companies, startup businesses, or IT/engineering teams seeking to setup or enhance their internal Research & Development teams' embedded systems development capability.
