Geek Squad Academy, a program of Best Buy, is designed to expose young people to technology tools and careers by engaging them in a variety of interest-driven, hands-on workshops that result in tangible products. Over the course of the 2-day camp, youth are engaged in workshops organized around 3-D design and printing, robotics, film-making, music production, and digital citizenship. In each workshop, youth have the opportunity to apply technical skills to a tangible project that involves design and collaboration. The tools that youth use at camp include SketchUp, Garage Band, iMovie, and Lego Mindstorm EV3.
