The air at the RSU Innovation Hub was buzzing with excitement from the 4th to the 15th of August 2025, as teenagers and teachers from across Rivers State gathered for the NextGen Creators: STEM and Future Education Bootcamp.
Driven by the Cinfores Creative Academy (CCA) in partnership with the Rivers State University, the two-week holiday program registered 310 teens and 90 teachers. It was more than just a learning experience , it was a journey into the future of education, technology, and creativity through immersive learning.
Participants explored the exciting world of STEM, creativity, and leadership development through hands-on sessions that equipped them with the skills needed to thrive in an ever-evolving digital world. The bootcamp’s vision was clear: build a tech-empowered generation by developing soft skills such as critical thinking, teamwork, and effective communication; strengthen the STEM ecosystem in Rivers State through public-private collaboration; and empower teachers with future-of-learning strategies using modern educational technologies.
It also served as a live testbed for the usability of Sukulu and Teachers Hub at scale, while fostering a lasting culture of innovation and curiosity among both youths and educators.
Participants immersed themselves in a dynamic blend of hands-on activities—from coding and product design to animation, cinematography, and real-world problem-solving. Each session was crafted to spark creativity while deepening technological fluency through interactive, project-based learning.
Educators were equally empowered. Far from being observers, they underwent intensive training on the latest edtech tools and transformative teaching strategies, equipping them to reimagine classroom experiences and drive innovation in their schools.
The bootcamp wasn’t just about knowledge transfer, it was a catalyst for building self-assurance, fostering teamwork, and igniting bold imagination. Participants were empowered to think big and craft innovative solutions for the challenges of tomorrow.
The future belongs to creators. At Cinfores Creative Academy, we are raising them today.
