Welcome to the National Robotics Education Foundation

This website is one of several initiatives being offered by this non-profit organization dedicated to advancing robotics education in junior, senior high schools and colleges. It will be responsive to the needs of all robotics educators through information exchanges, seminars, conferences and free curriculum exchange efforts.

Robotics educators, mentors, students and professionals are being offered the opportunity to exchange ideas and concepts through the National Robotics Education Foundation.

To do this, we need advance information about robotics initiatives, milestones and in particular, education trends. To facilitate this, the National Robotics Education Foundation offers a monthly newsletter, online communities at state and national levels and a frequently updated website covering the vast, growing world of robotics.

This website features the latest information on the following topics:

FIRST, BEST, Botball, TSA, MATE, Trinity Fire Fighting, FIRST LEGO League and numerous other robot compeitions held on local and national levels.
Robotics Curriculum offered commercially and robotics lesson programs available as freeware
