KEY TECH LABS

DES MOINES, WA

    • Mission

    Key Tech Labs is a mobile education lab that provides children and young adults education with hands on experience with new emerging technologies. We bring new tech such as Rapid prototyping, Augmented reality, Digital imaging and Green technologies right to their places they already go. We know that technology evolves fast and most children, especially urban youth, do not have access to these tools of the future. That is why we travel to them, and let them work with our technologies in order to learn, imagine, and create the key to their futures.

    About Us

    Key Tech Labs is a 501c3 nonprofit with a mission to build self-sustaining communities by equipping minorities with skills in S.T.E.M. in order to thrive in the workplace of tomorrow. We empower communities to repair, repurpose, upgrade, and advance the world in which we live through curriculums built on sustainable learning systems, integrating peer-to-peer mentoring with project based learning. Through the art of storytelling , students learn how to program by assessing everyday problems, drafting a solution, and designing a prototype to solve issues themselves, and finally, to share their solutions with the world. Key Tech Labs serves as a direct pipeline for talented, diverse, and underrepresented IT entrepreneurs to fully engage in the workforce of the Digital Era.
