The BEST Robotics Teacher Training is an immersive, hands-on professional development experience where educators step into the role of a student team to complete an accelerated version of the 8-week robotics challenge—in just one week. Teachers will design, build, and test a functioning robot, develop a mock engineering notebook, and present a marketing pitch, all while learning the ins and outs of the competition framework. This fast-paced, collaborative environment equips teachers with the technical knowledge, strategic insight, and classroom-ready tools to confidently lead their teams through the upcoming BEST Robotics season. Whether you're a first-timer or a veteran coach, this training is your launchpad to a successful and inspired robotics program.
