HOW IT WORKS
Two programs. Pick one — or both.
The Lesson Program teaches skills through structured 8-week courses. The Competition Program puts those skills to work in real VEX IQ tournaments. Most families do both.
✦ The Lesson Program and Competition Program can be taken at the same time, billed independently.
