“I was particularly impressed with the career professionals who joined the sessions and were active in the field. The fact that you had folks from Microsoft and Minecraft were especially engaging for my son. I also appreciated the hands-on project to build a game and then present it. The course has been terrific.” Celeste, Parent of Explorer, Summer Exploration Program 2021
