About AIEA:

We are proudly to be the first educational organisation in NSW that carries out research, development and delivery of workshops in immersive education. Since 2017 we have served more than 2000 children, young people and adults at public libraries, schools, community centres and council hosted public events. We are the official learning program provider at 12 local councils in NSW (including The Hills Shire Council where this workshop will take place).

AIEA's school holiday programs aim at democratizing disruptive technologies (specifically with Virtual Reality, Augmented Reality and Artificial Intelligence) and equipping the next generation with the knowledge and skills for the future job market.

AIEA also provides Virtual Reality programs to NDIS providers to help people with special needs experience things that they can never do in real life to improve their learning and quality of life.

As a not-for-profit organisation, our mission is 'Empower 1000 dreams' with immersive learning media and technologies following the pedagogy of constructionism - a legacy of Seymour Papert, father of digital-based learning.
