General Info

Welcome to the Denver Public Schools / REC Foundation / VEX Robotics training Workshop! 

Our goal is to get you started learning about robotics and learning about educational and fun VEX / REC Foundation competitions for your students.  No prior robotics experience is needed for your role as a robotics coach, nor is any prior robotics experience needed for this workshop.  We will walk you through it step by step, and show you how easy it is to mentor a competitive robotics team! 

At this workshop you will build, program and complete some robot challenges as well as learn about the VEX Robotics tournaments and how they work.   We will provide you with resources and hands-on experience.
