Online Programs

PROGRAMS

Our online offerings are structured to simulate real-world STEM industry design processes, bringing Monash Tech School expertise to your classroom.

What are Online Programs?

Online Programs introduce students to computer-based digital tools to design solutions for complex problems.

We ask questions like, ‘How can the digital landscape help your community through hardships that occurrences like social distancing can create?’, and through a series of webinars and resources, we guide students through the process of ideation and design. Our Online Programs bring creative and critical thinking, humanities subjects, and STEM learning to the classroom.

Please note that these programs are only available to government schools in the City of Monash area.
