Eastern Iowa Community Colleges (EICC) is partnering with a national leader in tech education to deliver virtual STEAM camps with more than 20 courses in coding, app design, video game creation, virtual reality, digital arts and more.

The five-day camps are open to youth ages 6 to 14 and are scheduled June – August. Taught by experienced, live instructors, each camp offers a morning or afternoon session lasting three hours. All camps are available via your computer and provide a fun, engaging way for kids to jump-start their future in creative tech.

During each camp, students will benefit from Black Rocket’s six pillars of learning, including creativity, technology, make-it-yourself, peer learning, 21st-century skills and project-based activities. Most student-created games and computer-based projects created at the camps will be available to students at home through a secure Black Rocket website.
