These courses deliver a high-quality learning experience with a seasoned, Maker-Trainer that enables your team to achieve the best STEAM-Tech education experience — with a truly hands-on approach that engages learners at the intersection of STEM and technology.

STEAM isn't just for big kids anymore. Improving STEM instruction at the early childhood level makes sense on many levels. When we view STEAM literacy in the context of language development, early exposure to the language of STEAM dramatically increases the likelihood of gaining fluency later in life.

Teachers will learn how to integrate STEAM instruction into infant-toddler curriculum by using creative educational techniques as a springboard for learning — putting science and math into action through the inquiry and engineering design process. In this bootcamp-style training we incorporate hands-on experiences, collaborative problem-solving, and an integrated approach to STEAM, scientific inquiry, and literacy skills.

Teaching staff will be coached through hands-on projects and go home with materials, lesson plans, and access to ongoing curriculum support — equipped to become effective LEADERS in STEAM education.

In our workshops, you will use logical thinking, the engineering design process, and the scientific method — just as your students will. Each workshop gives you the knowledge and tools you need to begin a STEAM-Tech program at your site, guided by Einstein By Design staff through a series of hands-on, project-based learning activities.

Join the Movement

Above all, participants become part of a movement set to revolutionize how students learn and attain 21st-century skills — with a global community of STEAM educators behind you.

Einstein By Design has had success teaching 21st-century skills to youth by immersing them in state-of-the-art digital technologies through hands-on learning experiences — and via our proprietary Tinker Tools and curriculum. Our success in teaching thousands of youth and hundreds of educators through our programs has inspired us to develop a new digital platform alongside a global expansion of our offline programs, to reach an even wider audience.

Founded in 2014 by Montessori-trained educator Tai Smallwood, EBD grew from a conviction that every child — regardless of zip code or background — deserves access to world-class STEAM education. That same philosophy drives our educator training work: when teachers are empowered, students thrive.

We have delivered programming across the United States and internationally — from university campuses to classrooms in Aruba, Detroit, Budapest, and throughout the Caribbean. Schools and government entities who have partnered with us asked for one thing: bring this energy to our educators. Our STEAM-Tech Bootcamp is the answer.
