SouthEast SD Youth Summer Program 2011
We offered FREE UCSD Extension accredited Pre-College courses at South Metro Career Center. These were free classes for Middle and High School students and the only requirement is that they are genuinely motivated to learn. Classes are beginner-friendly, but are also open to students with some experience/intermediate knowledge.
This program has been made possible by the support of the Gary and Mary West Foundation.
[tab name=”Summer Program Tracks”]
This is a multi-track learning program aimed at career preparation and readiness. We are targeting youth aged 16-21 to act as a bridge into technical careers/college, training them from the ground up in electronics with a hands-on project methodology, eventually moving them into solar and other clean energy technologies.
• Computer Programming: From Basics to Interactive Graphics
• Electronics: From Basic Circuitry to Solar, “the future of sustainable energy”.
• Graphic Design and Production: From vector graphics to production and how to make your own Illuminated object.
• IT Database Management: From local servers to building you own website.
• Student Portfolio Website.
