As technology becomes increasingly integral to everyday life, digitally savvy kids can enhance their tech skills to further enrich their knowledge and creativity. This summer, Power Mac Center (PMC), through its official training arm Basecamp, is offering young learners the chance to take their digital expertise to the next level.
Basecamp’s Creativity Camp is now open for registration, welcoming children aged 7 to 15 to its highly anticipated annual summer workshops on iPad and Mac. Running from May to June, these hands-on sessions will equip kids with valuable skills in 2D and 3D design, Augmented Reality (AR), animation, podcasting, and Artificial Intelligence (AI).
“We offer kids and teens an exclusive opportunity to explore next-generation technologies through engaging, hands-on experiences. With guidance from expert instructors, they’ll unleash their creativity while gaining essential digital skills that will benefit them in the future. Our goal is to equip young learners with the knowledge and confidence to navigate the evolving digital landscape,” said Maleng Raysag, Basecamp’s head.
Basecamp is an Apple Professional Learning Provider, only the second in Asia to have that title. By enrolling in its courses, parents are assured that kids get high-quality, impactful education that promotes creativity, critical thinking, and digital literacy using Apple technologies.
