Dates & times

BCIT's Summer Computer Camps will not be scheduled this year.
In the past, every course ran Monday to Friday with drop-off between 8:00-9:00 am and pick-up between 4:00-5:00 pm. All classes began at 9:00 am and finished at 4:00 pm, with an hour-long lunch break and activity period, plus 2 twenty-minute snack breaks. [top]

Environment

Our students worked in an interactive environment while learning the fundamentals of programming, games development, and webpage creation! A four-to-one student supervision ratio ensures a quality learning experience for all of our students. Classes will take place in 2009 at BCIT's best facilities, utilizing the latest software, hardware, and newest high-end computer products. [top]

Staff

Computer Camps are managed by the School of Computing department. Our summer Camp instructors were for the most part CST students who are talented and passionate about what they teach. They are selected for their ability to work with young people and they enjoy passing on their extensive knowledge to students.

We also ensure constant student supervision in and out of classrooms by hiring experienced and qualified youth workers.

The majority of our CST Diploma students have full time work as soon as they finish their programs, so it became more difficult to recruit for these positions.

If you want to learn more about software and web development, check out our part time studies 'COMP' courses.
These are available to students who are over 16 years of age and who have completed Grade 11. 

"The teachers and supervising staff have been a dream team."
