Through our programs, we provide them with the resources and opportunities they need to excel in their development, training, and career placement. We believe that everyone should have the chance to become a leader in technology, regardless of their background.
Our mission is to create a more equitable and inclusive future in STEM education and employment by empowering underrepresented populations to pursue high-tech careers
Our Programs
'Starter to Industry' Training Course
This program provides job-seeking engineers and engineering graduates with the hands-on applied prototype development experience they will need to break into the High-Tech and Advanced Manufacturing industries, and matches them to companies that can maximize their skills.
The engineers that Moona trains at its centers represent a wide variety of specializations, from robotics to programming to control systems. They also represent the full spectrum of Israeli ethnic, religious, and cultural groups.
Moona Quest
Moona Quest is an extracurricular STEM and leadership program that partners with schools from all over Israel to provide 5th-10th graders with hands-on experience in Science, Math, and English through a fun and engaging school-based project designed to develop technical skills, leadership abilities, and teamwork.
Moona Quest requires students to work in teams of 10-15 participants to conceptualize, develop, design, and construct an Escape Room based on various challenges in Science, Math, and English.
'A Gateway to High Tech'
This multi-year program promotes personal, social, and economic prosperity through education by exposing students to innovative technology. We prioritize the needs of the school and the individual student while fostering innovation and entrepreneurship in the fields of science and technology.
Participants have the opportunity to plan, build, and operate a technological product that provides a solution to a community, social, personal, or environmental challenge they have identified. Through teamwork, leadership development, and 21st-century skills, students will develop their abilities within a social activity in their local community. The practical experience gained through this program will equip students with the skills needed to excel in today's fast-paced world.
Teachers as Technological Leaders
This program is designed to train teachers in project-based learning pedagogy (PBL) with a strong focus on technological development, and is specifically tailored for educators teaching STEM subjects (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics). We believe that teachers can be a significant source of inspiration for their students and that early exposure to technology and digital tools in the classroom is crucial for motivating students.
