Course Description
The Certificate in AI, Robotics & Web Automation is a practical technology programme designed for young learners aged 10–15.
The programme introduces students to modern technologies through hands-on experiments and creative projects. Students learn how computers, electronic circuits, sensors, robots, artificial intelligence, web applications and automation systems work together.
The programme integrates Arduino/ESP32 robotics, Artificial Intelligence, Internet of Things (IoT), web-based automation and Microsoft 365 to develop computational thinking, creativity, problem-solving and digital innovation skills.
Students progress from basic electronic circuits and programming to developing connected smart devices and robots.
The programme concludes with a Young Innovators Final Project, where students design, build and demonstrate their own smart robotic or automated system.
