We've got the answers for your questions

What is the Educational Framework for WCT

Our structure for developing WCT is the Community of Inquiry Model. We chose this model because it encompasses all the elements of Cognitive, Social, and Teaching, and allows direct alignment to inspiring self-paced learning.

What will happen at the live workshops?

Live workshops allow you to experience hands on instruction and learn with an instructor in real time for immediate feedback, & meet other students that are exploring interest in a STEAM field offered by WCT.

At our most recent event students left understanding the fundamentals of coding and also music development and production. Not to mention students left the event with their own original instrumental beat.

How does the virtual programming work?

Fall 2023 students will be able to login into our virtual platform with their own individual login and go through a facilitated curriculum online that is self paced. They can start and stop at their leisure to complete various modules.

What are the networking opportunities?

Students will have the opportunity to login online, or come to any in person events we offer to meet industry professionals. Continue to check our website and social media for updates. You want to make sure you subscribe to our email list so you don't miss updates!
