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.
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.
The Wesleyan campus is a 360-acre park-like setting that includes the famous High Street, once described by Charles Dickens as "the handsomest street in America." The campus is also home to Davison Art Center, a designated U.S. National Historic Landmark known for its large collection of 18,000 prints, 6,000 photographs, several hundred drawings, and a small number of paintings.
In addition to skill-building and friendships, each iD Tech camp offers students the valuable opportunity of exploring a prestigious university campus. At Wesleyan University, this includes chowing down in Usdan alongside future tech disruptors, taking in campus landmarks like Van Vleck Observatory, and basking in the sunshine during outdoor activities and games across Wesleyan's ample green spaces. The entire experience gives students an exciting glimpse into their own bright future.
