STEM exCEL Partnership

Training future mentors!

Aegis Robotics works with local company, STEM exCEL, to train future FIRST Mentors in the Northern Virginia area.

Description

Since the summer of 2017, Aegis Robotics has had a corporate partnership with a local company, STEM exCEL. STEM exCEL is a locally based company that provides interactive and accessible STEM programs for students of all ages in Northern Virginia. The missions of our two organizations overlap heavily with an emphasis on STEM education and creating more FIRST programs.

This partnership is one of the avenues the team uses to support and engage our community and is highlighted by the Coach the Coach workshop which was aimed at training parents to become youth robotics coaches in FLL Jr and FLL. There are also plans to expand FIRST outreach by introducing FIRST robotics programs to lacking communities such as the South County pyramid of schools in Fairfax County, Virginia.
