Why Us
Programs That Grow With You
We meet students at their level; whether they’re curious beginners or competition-ready. Our structured tracks make it easy to start simple and scale up, while building confidence and technical skills that last.
Industry-Level Tools & Competitions
Students use real robotics platforms, real design tools, and compete on national and international stages. We don’t simulate the experience; we deliver it.
Building Future Innovators Through Real Robotics
Maple Mind Academy is where creativity meets engineering and where future innovators start their journey today. From classroom learning to robotics competitions, we provide students with the tools, mentorship, and hands-on experience needed to design, lead, and excel in robotics and artificial intelligence.
Who Are We?
Canada’s Creative Robotics Education Ecosystem
Maple Mind Academy is more than a robotics school; it is a platform for real-world learning that turns passion into progress. Every student builds robots, codes solutions, competes in recognized challenges, and grows with purpose and confidence.
01
Built by Educators & Engineers
Our team brings together experienced educators and skilled engineers who share a passion for teaching. Having competed, built, and led in real-world robotics, we now mentor students to achieve the same success and more.
02
Rooted in Real Competitions
We prepare students for internationally recognized robotics challenges such as RoboCup, FIRA, and VEX. The classroom provides the foundation, but competition arenas are where our students showcase their skills and shine as innovators.
03
Programs That Scale With You
From one-day camps to full-year tracks, from hybrid learning to fully equipped robotics labs, our programs are flexible and scalable. We meet students and schools at every stage, offering pathways that fit diverse goals and schedules.
04
Innovation Beyond the Classroom
We design products, train instructors, build labs, and launch experiences that shape how robotics education evolves in Canada and beyond.
OUR TEAM
At Maple Mind Academy, our team consists of robotics experts, academic achievers, and creative thinkers who combine technical knowledge with a passion for education. Our instructors and mentors have diverse backgrounds in robotics engineering, artificial intelligence, mechanical engineering, industrial design, computer science, biomedical science, business, information technology, and media. Many have competed in and coached students for national and international robotics competitions, bringing valuable real-world experience to the classroom.
We are dedicated educators who prioritize hands-on learning and a student-first approach. By focusing on practical outcomes and skill development, we help students build, lead, and innovate with confidence and purpose.
Our mission is clear: to empower the next generation of innovators. Together, we do more than teach robotics; we inspire students to become leaders in technology, engineering, and design.

Our Mission
Empower. Educate. Engineer.
Our mission is to make robotics and AI education accessible, exciting, and deeply practical for every student; no matter their background or experience.
01
Education That Matters
We focus on hands-on learning, critical thinking, and solving real-world problems. Every student builds something that works; and learns why it matters.
02
Opportunity Without Barriers
From low-cost camps to full competition tracks, we offer a wide range of programs to ensure every student has a place to start, grow, and thrive.
03
Building Canada’s Future Engineers
Our students aren’t just learners; they’re leaders in the making. We prepare them for high-impact roles in technology, design, and innovation.
Where Innovation Meets Education
Our vision is to create a robotics education ecosystem that prepares youth not just for competitions or classrooms; but for real futures in design, engineering, and AI innovation.
Low-Cost Robotics Programs
We aim to keep costs low so that every student, regardless of background, has access to robotics education.
Hybrid Learning for Busy Schedules
Flexible, blended programs let students learn online and join in-person lab sessions weekly; no travel required.
Mobile Lab Experiences
We’re developing a mobile robotics lab; a sponsored school bus outfitted with equipment; that brings STEM directly to schools across Canada.
National Competition Presence
We train students to compete in RoboCup, FIRA, VEX, and more; placing Canada on the global robotics map.
Youth-Led Engineering Projects
We support students in building their own robotic products and launching ideas that matter.
Robotics As a National Identity
We believe Canada should lead in youth robotics innovation; and we’re working to make it happen.
Product Design for Education
We’re creating plug-and-play robotics kits and design tools for younger students to explore AI and mechanics at home.
Robotics Education Hubs
We’re building physical centers and partner labs where students can drop in, build, learn, and connect.
Lab-on-Wheels Program
Schools will soon be able to rent our Maple Mind Academy mobile lab for events, week-long programs, or permanent learning pods; cost-effective, branded, and easy to deploy.
