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.
If you’re new to FLL and wondering what you just got yourself into—this session is for you. Veteran mentors Marcus and Boyd from the Macro Mentor Core break it down with humor, honesty, and helpful resources for surviving (and thriving) in your first season.
From understanding the season arc to balancing robots, Core Values, and project work, this is your friendly orientation to what matters most and what to leave behind.
