“I have worked with the Virtual Robotics Training Academy (VRTA) for three years as an experiential learning educator. So many students have been able to enhance their programming and simulation skills through this diverse and user-friendly platform. Many of the young people that were able to participate in this experience have gone on to post-secondary science, technology, and/or engineering programs with added confidence and technical skills because of the VRTA. Kyle is professional and easy to work with. Any time a question arose or troubleshooting was necessary, it was immediately completed with detail and commitment. I would highly recommend this program to all School Boards and Educators looking for meaningful reach-ahead learning experiences for young people.”

“VRTA is a really interesting new innovation in the robotics space. Unlike other simulation tools, it is much more approachable and accessible to students of all ages. I really appreciate that the team at VRTA is focusing on providing students with a wide variety of experiences in programming. This will be an increasingly important skill in any industry in the years to come. I'm excited to see how VRTA will help students succeed going forwards.”

“As a university student, I know what it’s like trying to learn how to program by listening to a lecturer read a slideshow to you. Let me tell you it’s not very effective. VRTA is a platform that makes learning important STEM skills super easy and engaging. With the ability to put what you learn to practice right away, it’s almost guaranteed that you're going to have an effective learning experience. I am glad knowing that future students will have a platform such as the VRTA to help guide them through their careers in STEM, something that I wish I’d had growing up!”
