Did you know that Innovate Forge Academy students are having a great time with their online daily challenges aside from their class time?
Forge is our app made for students with input from them as well and even parents are using it to work with their children at home. Very, very soon, Forge will be available for all students to use, not just the students in our in house programs. This is an exciting time, we can’t wait to share more. Stay tuned!
Over the years and till today we continue to teach and coach teens from all walks of life. Some of them came through the doors of Innovate Forge Academy as very young kids and practically grew up at the academy. Week by week, year by year, time flew by. They’ve grown up and the ones still with us are growing up so quickly. We’ve had students for even 10 years which is a long time! We are really an academy family. Yes we still desire to keep things smaller so we can focus on quality training and working to help our students achieve. We can’t wait to open our doors to welcome new students to come along for Starter Sessions for our 2027 intake. Link to our new website in the comments. ⬇️
We absolutely love it when we have a brief given to students which also allows them to work on the contraption and become as creative as they can be.
This excitement for everyone never gets old. At Innovate Forge Academy, it’s really nice to see a lot of learning and fun going on in classes each week. 🙌
This is why our students are amazing. They have such high standards! 🙌 #robotics #gears #explore #classroom
We’re back at work today! School’s back, Academy is back too! 🙌
