FIRST in Michigan/Potential Coaches Workshop
Fill out this form if your high school does not have a high school FIRST team and you'd like to attend a two-day Professional Development course to learn what the FIRST high school program is all about.  The training is offered through a partnership with FIRST in Michigan / Argosy Foundation. We are grateful to Kettering for providing an outstanding venue.  

There are a limited number of spots available.

First priority will be given to high schools that do not currently have a FIRST Robotics Competition team. Any spots that remain open will be filled with new coaches from high school teams that already exist.

While this course is not offered to teachers interested in starting a middle school or elementary FIRST team, we do have grants that include free kits and free registration fees for newly forming middle school and late elementary teams.  
-    To start or learn more about starting a middle school team, please contact Tammy Damrath at michiganftc@gmail.com.
-    To start or learn more about starting a late elementary team, please contact Angela Hite at michiganflll@gmail.com.i 

This high school PD course is designed to immerse teachers into a FIRST Robotics Competition (FRC) atmosphere, where participants will be taken through a hands-on experience around high school level FIRST Robotics. This Professional Learning Opportunity will take place:

Where: Kettering University FIRST Robotics Center in Flint
When: Two days- Friday, October 11, 8:45 am to 6:00 pm, and Saturday, October 12, 2019, 8:00am to 500 pm

• $300 Stipend for participating in the two-day training
   (stipend to cover Friday evening & Saturday)
• $125 to the district to cover the cost of Friday's substitute teacher

Teachers will learn by doing - all participants will get the opportunity to:
• build a competition robot drivetrain,
• program their creation to complete given tasks,

  FIRST Robotics Team.
