We have very good news!

 

Otto DIY has been pre-selected for Impact Edtech Accelerator Remote Schooling initiative sponsored by the European Union. Beginning November 16th-20th the accelerator will take place online.

Otto DIY’s main focus through Impact Edtech will be initiating our new program

Otto At Home where we will offer and support hundreds of students across the European Union with Otto Builder Kits. In addition, program members will have access to the Otto Academy online Learning Management System for courses at www.ottoschool.com. The program is meant to support after school learning due to the lack of programs caused from the pandemic.

Below is the timeline of our program:

  • Application opens for first round of accepted product candidates

  • For Educators organizing a group of students, an interview will be initiated as part of the acceptance process

January, 2021

  • Shipments of first applicants

  • Recruitment of second round product candidates

  • Ottoschool.com will be completed and ready to use for program members

February, 2021

Third and fourth rounds of the program will take effect in summer 2021 after fulfilling program KPI’s set in place during the Impact Edtech Accelerator week.

If you are interested to apply to be part of the Otto At Home program, please share your name, country and email address from the button below. Keep in mind, you need to be a resident in an EU country to be qualified. Beginning of December we will notify you and share the application to fill out.
