Welcome to the GEARED UP: Mentor Conference, where innovation meets inspiration!
Join us on May 17, 2025, from 9 am to 4 pm at the Johns Hopkins Applied Physics Laboratory, Kossiakoff Center, for a day filled with knowledge-sharing, networking, and empowerment.
This conference is proudly presented by Aramco America and aims to equip mentors with the tools and insights needed to effectively guide an increasingly diverse generation of students.
Hosting a FIRST LEGO League event is more than a service—it's a strategic move to strengthen your program, grow local engagement, and cultivate future FTC and FRC talent. This session explores what it takes to host an FLL event, from logistics and volunteer planning to venue considerations and partner collaboration. We’ll focus especially on how FTC and FRC teams and organizations can play a leadership role, creating a welcoming experience for younger students while reinforcing the full FIRST progression. Whether you're an FLL coach, a robotics program leader, or part of a high school team looking to give back, this session offers actionable insights and a broader vision for sustainable program growth.
