Selected educators will receive training on advanced technologies related to manufacturing, aviation, mechatronics, robotics and healthcare (e.g., utilizing tools like 3D printers, Arduino, Mindstorms and more). They will also learn pedagogical skills for promoting hands-on STEM inquiry in the classroom, as well as student team building and leadership activities.

Participants who graduate from the training will teach a two-week STEM camp for high school Emirati students in Abu Dhabi or Al Ain. Upon completion of both the Training and STEM Camp, participants will receive a certificate from Mubadala, a letter stating that they completed over 100 hours of STEM training/teaching and a stipend of 7500AED. Additionally, graduates will have opportunities to apply to borrow equipment, so that they may use the advanced technologies they learned in lessons with students in their own schools.
