Nervtek called, and Bamenda answered! The Easter STEAM Fest 2025 was a huge success. Last week, Nervtek Education organized a 3-day tech adventure that lit up Bamenda! Hosted at EduCare and Full Gospel Bilingual Primary and Nursery School (FUGOBPANS), the 3-day event saw over 197+ young learners aged 7 to 17 turn out across the two locations eager to learn and kick-start their journey into the world of technology. The workshop brought together bright minds who were introduced to cutting-edge technologies like robotics, coding, artificial intelligence, 3D modeling, and virtual reality. Under the guidance of Nervtek’s STEAM Educators and volunteers, these learners dove into hands-on sessions designed to spark curiosity and ignite creativity. Armed with powerful tools like nTron ignite kit, Tello drones, Meta Quest VR headsets, Creality 3D printers, mBot robots, and mBlock, the children didn’t just watch they built, coded, and created. They piloted drones, explored immersive virtual worlds, made robots move, designed in 3D, and saw their own code come to life. The energy was electric. Smiles and excitement filled the rooms as kids imagined their futures as engineers, developers, designers, and innovators. Supported by UNDP Cameroon, which provided essential resources like laptops, VR headsets, the Easter STEAM Fest was more than just a holiday program it was a launchpad for future innovators. As the program came to a close, one question echoed in every space: “When will you be coming back?” We heard you, Bamenda! That’s why we’re excited to announce that Holiday Tech Camp 2025 is coming to Bamenda. This is your chance to build on the STEAM Fest momentum and take your child’s tech skills to the next level.

Holiday Tech Camp (HTC): Inspiring the Next Generation of Innovators

2 Comments / Holiday Tech Camp /

“We don’t want our children to see STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics) fields as rocket science or imaginary. We want them to have a belief system that they can use STEM to create solutions. Therefore, we are providing them with the tools needed to make their dreams a reality.”— Nzometiah Nervis, CEO, Nervtek This powerful vision lies at the heart of the Holiday Tech Camp (HTC) – a transformative program designed by Nervtek Education to ignite curiosity, build future-ready skills, and shape young minds into Africa’s next generation of innovators. Our goal is to inspire creativity, innovation, and a growth mindset, ensuring that the youth are well-prepared to tackle the challenges and opportunities of the digital era. What Is the Holiday Tech Camp (HTC)? Held during the summer holidays from and June to July in Bamenda and July to August in Buea,  HTC is more than just a tech camp. It is a gateway for children aged 6 to 17 to dive into the world of robotics, coding, artificial intelligence, web development, virtual reality, 3D design, drone technology, entrepreneurship, public speaking, team collaboration, and problem solving – all in a fun, interactive, and collaborative environment. What Do Children Learn at HTC? HTC isn’t your average holiday program. Each session introduces participants to a wide range of hands-on tech skills, including: Programming: Learn to code using beginner to advanced languages that encourage logic, creativity, and problem-solving. 3D Modeling & Printing: Design and produce physical models using digital tools. Robotics: Build and code robots to solve real-world challenges. Web Development: Explore how websites are built and develop your own from scratch. Leadership and Entrepreneurship: Develop confidence, communication, and problem-solving skills for real-world success.

This is what youth-led impact looks like.” The Nervtek Makerspace helps schools establish and run STEM clubs, keeping the tech journey going all year round. What Makes HTC Truly Special? The Holiday Tech Camp is not just a program – it’s an experience that transforms lives. It bridges the gap between classroom theory and real-world tech innovation. It’s where curiosity meets opportunity. At HTC, children don’t just learn about technology – they become creators.It’s the moment a quiet student stands up and proudly presents their invention.It’s when a group of kids works together to solve a challenge none of them could solve alone. Innovation with Purpose: HTC teaches young minds to think differently. It gives them the confidence to ask, “What can I build today that will make tomorrow better?” Growing Confidence & Critical Thinking: Through hands-on experimentation and teamwork, students learn to embrace failure as part of the journey, and to believe in their own voice and ideas. Inspiring a Vision for the Future: Many students start HTC unsure of their place in the world of tech. But by the end of the program, they’re buzzing with ambition, excitement, and a clear sense of purpose.

Bridging Theory and Practice: Celebrating the International Day of Mathematics with African Institute for Mathematical Sciences (AIMS) – Cameroon

Leave a Comment / Blog /

On March 14th, 2025, Nervtek Education had the privilege of joining African Institute for Mathematical Sciences (AIMS) – Cameroon to celebrate the International Day of Mathematics. This remarkable event brought together over 80 students and teachers from 7 schools in the Fako Division, South West Region. Our goal was to make mathematics more engaging by demonstrating its real-world applications through hands-on learning. During the session, led by our Makerspace Manager Engr Youmbi Harold, students and teachers explored fundamental STEM concepts using the nTron™ Ignite Kit by Nervtek. They transitioned from theory to practical’s by connecting LEDs, adding resistors, understanding color mixing with RGB, and even building the nBot. The excitement in the room was undeniable as participants saw how these theoretical concepts the learn everyday in class can be translated into tangible projects and real life experiences.   A key highlight of the session was the introduction to 3D printing and drone piloting. Students witnessed how mathematical principles like dimensions and calculations play a crucial role in designing 3D models and understanding drone physics. These insights not only deepened their appreciation for mathematics but also inspired many to explore careers in tech and engineering. It was fascinating to see teachers working alongside students, actively engaging with the projects. And of course, the big question remains – who do you think completed their projects the fastest? Thanks to the nTron™ Ignite Kit we are more committed than ever to bridging the gap between theory and practice. We look forward to empowering more students with hands-on STEM experiences in the future!
