Summer Computer Camps in Las Vegas NV

ID Tech Camps, Nevada:
Since 1999, almost 200,000 students have made iD Tech Camps their summer technology and science camp provider of choice. iD Tech Camps at the University of Nevada - Las Vegas provide week-long day camps for kids ages 7-12 & teens ages 13-17. With 8 students maximum per instructor, we customize our curriculum around each individual camper. Students can enroll in these children's summer camps for one or several weeks (further camps).

Founded in 1999, iD Tech Camps started out in a studio above a garage in the mountains overlooking Silicon Valley. The same family that founded iD Tech is still running it today. iD Curriculum ideas are inspired by evaluations from past seasons’ campers, parents, and instructors.

At iD, you have the freedom to put your talents and passions to use. Students can explore campuses, make new friends, and get a taste of the college lifestyle. With personalized instruction and never more than 8 students per instructor, this is anything but a typical classroom setting.

Elite Summer Camp Staff:
iD Tech Camps believes that a camp is only as good as its staff, and recruits industry professionals, recent graduates, graduate students, and upper-level college undergraduates from the top universities in the country. iD Tech Camps have a policy of “No CIT’s”. This ensures that iD Tech Camps students are supervised and instructed by paid adult staff (ages 18 and older) at all camp locations.
