AAbboouutt iiDD TTeecchh SSuummmmeerr CCaammppss The iD Tech story began in a studio above a garage in 1999. We had a simple mission –
To provide a world class computer camp experience to young people with a passion fortechnology and computers. All we wanted to do was to ignite and stoke the Internal Drive
(now you know what iD stands for!) in our campers.
Twelve years down the line, we have more students each year than any of our
competitors. iD Tech now comprises of the flagship brand iD Tech Camps, the iD Visual
Arts Academy, the iD Gaming Academy, the iD OnSite and the iD Programming
Academy.
iD Tech was born with a commitment to quality and dedication; that’s what makes us
different. As a family-owned and managed company, we pride ourselves on the close
attention we pay to all the details that really matter – hand-picked staff; risk management;
personalized instruction and a stimulating yet safe
environment.
Keeping our staff and students happy is the guiding
force behind all we do and the glowing testimonials
bear us out. We have successfully experimented with
blending the nostalgic charm and leisure of traditional
summer camps with cutting edge tech programs.
Here are some of our program highlights:
Day and week-long tech camps for ages 7 – 17
and teen academies for ages 13 – 18.
Campers may register for one or more weeks.
Locations include some of the best university and college campuses in the United
States and Canada.
Low campus: counselor ratio of 6: 1.
Hand-picked and well-trained staff comprising of industry professionals and college
graduates.
The best software and hardware from tech giants Adobe, Apple, Autodesk, HP andMicrosoft.
As our thirteenth season draws near, we look forward to reaffirming our commitment to
our guiding values – inspiration, determination, education, awareness and leadership.
