Technoclubs

Imagine a young person in your class creating the next Facebook or new smartphone or something that is going to radically change the world for everyone?

 

Technoclubs will help kick-start their own mini enterprise – they will be creating a product, making it, advertising it and telling the world about how exciting it is. Who knows you may have the next Mark Zuckerberg or Bill Gates somewhere in your class.

 

By following our Ten Steps to creating a Technoclub the young people in your class could be one step closer to living their dream and yours!

 

10 Steps to Creating a Technoclub

  1. Get your class into groups of either four or five and get them to decide on a group name
  2. Complete the Technoclub participation form provided by your workshop developer and register your club/s by emailing: info@technocamps.com
