Digital Media Academy has been developing and delivering impactful STEAM learning for students since starting on the campus of Stanford University in 2002. Digital Media Academy provides students with professional-level technology education from professional instructors using professional software and hardware at UBC and UofT in Canada with overnight and multi-week options.

The Our Kids review of Digital Media Academy

The activities offered at any camp are important, with those at tech camps perhaps being more applicable to many kids' personal and academic lives than, say, tetherball. That said, all good camps see their activities as less an end in themselves, and more as something for young people to gather together around, to test their abilities and resolve, and to help them to grow into a sense of who they are. In all of those things, Digital Media Academy has the balance absolutely right. The sessions will attract young people who share a vocabulary and a curiosity, and the opportunity to spend protracted time in that milieu is a great benefit in and of itself. The content of the sessions is a-list in every way, though the values that inform them are as well. There is a focus on developing curiosities, collaborative skills, resiliency, empowerment, and passion. Again, the balance is right, with the programs promoting a lot more than skills. The sessions are professionally run, by professional educators. The network of locations, as well as national oversight, allow for a wealth of resources and talent to go around.

It’s our mission to foster a learning community of diversity and excellence through memorable and innovative educational experiences led by the highest-quality instructors; building skills and confidence to empower lifelong learners to follow their dreams and make a lasting impact.

Digital Media Academy was born at Stanford University in 1999 as the Academy for New Media, a program owned and operated by the Academic Technology department at Stanford University. In 2002, Digital Media Academy became a private institution, sponsored by the Stanford University Continuing Studies department. Since then, we have set out to be the thought-leader in tech education for kids, teens and adults at prestigious universities across the U.S. and Canada. In addition to our summer programs, DMA offers year-round learning via DMA Online and powers tech ed programs around the globe through its curriculum licensing program. DMA instructors and curriculum developers include industry professionals and outstanding technology educators, with a driving passion for inspiring, teaching, and mentoring.

  LET THE ADVENTURES BEGIN!

  The countdown to summer vacation has begun, and if you’re a parent, you’re probably already planning what your kids will be doing.

  Make it a summer well spent by giving your child (9-18) the learning experience of a lifetime, at any of DMA’s STEAM tech camp locations across the U.S. and Canada.

  When your child begins coding early, it starts their adventure in programming. Come check out our DMA Adventures programs for young learners!
