500+
people taught
4/7 continents
reached through content deployments
>80% of learners surveyed demonstrated increased subject matter knowledge
100%
of classes taught include hands on activities to solidify learning
We stand on three pillars
Lowering the barrier for entry through building and working with others to develop inclusive education materials that foster a sense of belonging
Developing both educational curriculum and actively engaging the community to demonstrate AI in Action including building and sharing content on social media to expose people to artificial intelligence and other emergent STEM topics. Content is designed to increase access to "complex" tech topics
To see a sample of courses currently offered click here. AI in Action series are available on YouTube, Instaagram and TikTok
Teaching kids, adults, training trainers to scale knowledge and hosting Tech Symposiums. Providing exposure to topics and resources to promote access for all
Target audiences range from those who have not been previously exposed to the subjects and are interested in learning, to experts and leaders in their own right looking to get foundational understanding through cross skilling.
Content has been delivered across the US, in Geneva, Ghana, Japan and beyond!
IRB approved research into how the target customers learn to ensure that content developed meet their needs
thinqueBytes® has a focus on actively collecting data through survey and focus groups and analyzing it to better understand how people learn. This is done with a focus on segments of the population that represent gaps in traditional learning methods.
We primarily align with UN Sustainable Development Goal 4 - Ensure inclusive and equitable quality education and promote lifelong learning opportunities for all.
thinqueBytes® is excited to offer sponsorship opportunities for upcoming activities to advance our mission.
Ghana Train the Trainer and Global Tech Symposium
A Train-the-Trainer session to scale global knowledge in robotics and other STEM fields
A Global Research Tech Symposium that will increase awareness between Ghana, the US, and other parts of the world, of research being performed in robotics and related fields
We are also currently planning a return deployment in Accra Ghana that will focus on Train-The-Trainer sessions. This concept evolved from thinqueBytes® participation in a program through which thinqueBytes® Rockets and Robotics curriculum was delivered to Ghanaian students in September 2023. The updated model for Train-The-Trainer sessions will focus on increasing access to education in these and other subjects by scaling the expertise in delivering the course materials to local educators and facilitators in Ghana. These participants who will then take on opportunities to volunteer to teach in the community. We will deliver 1 to 2 weeks of training (2-4 courses) depending on funding levels.
