SUMMER 2018 | AGES 7–18

The industry leader


in STEM education
In 1999, “tech camps” didn’t exist. Our
family saw the void in mainstream
education and crafted a summer
experience for kids and teens that
was unlike anything else.
The first iD Tech office in 1999
Today, as the nation’s leading tech
educator, parents rely on us to prepare
students for over 2.4 million open STEM jobs. To push
for 50/50 gender parity in tech. To help bridge the
digital divide with life-changing scholarships.

Simply put, we’re more than just a camp—we’re a


purpose-driven company on a mission to embolden
students to shape the future. Whether you come
for one week to explore and have fun or return for
multiple sessions and become the next tech rock star
at Google, your pathway starts here.
