WizKlub, an edtech start-up, announced a global ‘TEC Olympiad’ on tech aptitude, coding and robotics. The Olympiad will recognize the bright minds on these parameters with technology orientation on a global level.
Tech Explorer and Creator (TEC) Olympiad is being held in association with 1200+ schools across the world where participating students can win scholarships, certificates and medals worth Rs.85 lakhs.
The Olympiad will have three stages and the finals will be conducted in Feb 2022.
TEC Olympiad is designed by practitioners working in the area of cognitive & tech excellence for children. The Olympiad covers various skills like technology aptitude (that would cover skills of algorithmic thinking, logic, inductive and deductive reasoning), syntax-less coding (that would create an ability to identify the expected output when a certain set of block-based instructions are run), Tech and Robotics (awareness of technology used in tech products & robotics).
“With TEC Olympiad we are working towards our aim of empowering a million minds with skills for future careers. With this Olympiad we want to identify bright minds that have potential of excellence across core cognitive and technology skills,” Amit Bansal, Founder & CEO, WizKlub, said.
The objective is to get children initiated to the exciting world of using technology to solve real-world problems.
