We made Provincials!!

UMOJA Team 7712 has made it to the 2023 Ontario Provincial Championship! Our dedicated and talented young leaders have demonstrated their exceptional skills, teamwork, and determination, earning their rightful place among the top contenders in the province. This achievement marks a significant milestone in our journey, and we couldn't be prouder of their dedication and hard work.

Our History

Team Umoja was created in response to the under-representation of Black youth in Science Technology Engineering and Math (STEM), and to inspire them to pursue studies and careers in this field.

Since 2018, ACCN has been competing at First Robotics competitions in Canada, and we are particularly proud of:
• the many awards won over the years
• the past members of the team who are pursuing post secondary studies in various disciplines of engineering or computer science
• the invaluable technical and life skills acquired by these young people
• moving the needle in creating STEM opportunities, and closing the looming skill gaps in Canada
