“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.
What Is the Holiday Tech Camp (HTC)?
Held during school holidays, 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, 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:
-
Scratch & mBlock Programming: Visual coding that introduces logic and creativity in a beginner-friendly way.
-
Robotics: Building and coding real robots using mBot to complete challenges and missions.
-
Drone Technology: Learn the science of flight and control real drones like the Tello.
-
Virtual Reality (VR): Dive into immersive digital experiences using Meta AI headsets.
-
3D Modeling & Printing: Design 3D models and bring them to life with Creality 3D printers.
-
AI & Innovation Projects: Build smart tech prototypes that solve real-life problems.
-
Digital Safety: Learn how to use technology responsibly and stay cyber-aware.
Why HTC Matters
Africa is rapidly evolving, and the demand for local tech talent is growing. HTC empowers young learners to think like innovators, not just consumers. From flying drones to creating their own digital worlds, children begin to see technology as something they can control, shape, and use for good.
Through this program, Nervtek is building a new future — one where African youth lead the way in innovation, creativity, and tech entrepreneurship.

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.
A Glimpse from the Easter STEAM Fest 2025
Following the massive success of our Easter STEAM Fest 2025 — with over 197 children participating in Bamenda — the momentum is only growing.
For three unforgettable days, students programmed robots, explored virtual worlds, and watched their ideas come to life. The energy was electric. By the end of the program, one question echoed again and again:
“When are you coming back?”
Ready for the Future: Holiday Tech Camp 2025
