    Our Staff

    We know the right instructor changes everything. Our staff empowers students with the most in-demand tech skills, while bringing our fun, inclusive camp culture to life.

    Top university recruits and industry pros

    Our selective hiring practices, honed for over 20 years, yield the most highly qualified, passionate instructors from tech companies and universities like Caltech and NYU.

    All adults, no CITs, and thorough background checks

    We adhere to a policy of no “Counselors in Training.” Instead, you’ll find fun-loving, well-paid, all-adult instructors. We take safety seriously. All staff members undergo extensive background and reference checks and are CPR & First-Aid Certified.

    Trained in person

    Once hired, each staff member attends Regional Staff Training. Via hands-on workshops, collaborative activities, and in-depth educational sessions, they hone their teaching methods and get immersed in our core values.

    Established in 1853, UF is the third largest university in Florida by student population. It spans over 2,000 acres and is home to the expansive Smathers Library, Century Tower, the Reitz Union, and the esteemed Harn Museum of Art. 

    During outdoor activities and between lab sessions, iD Tech students can take in all that this inspiring university setting has to offer.
