Phoenix Space Program launches in Kilis, Turkey

In mid-April, we began offering the Phoenix Space Program, our main STEM education offering, at the Nama’a Center in Kilis, Turkey. Approximately 25 students are participating. The program is a 32-week educational program consisting of weekly in-person and online classes combined with camps and workshops to teach 13-to 17-year-old students useful skills in mathematics, electronics, physics, coding, robotics, and project management. Lessons and assignments incorporate the inspirational theme of space science to increase student interest and engagement.

This is our fifth center in Turkey and our 8th cohort of the Phoenix Space Program.
