The Workforce Institute was excited and proud to incorporate the zSpace Computers courtesy of HealthForce Kentucky at this year’s STEMM Camp for Ashland Independent Schools. 💻

These augmented reality laptops give students immersive, hands-on learning in healthcare-related careers. The computers are programmed to teach in-depth anatomy, and breaks it down to a cellular level. 🧬

This is the first time this cutting-edge technology has been in this part of our region, and safe to say it was a huge hit at STEMM Camp! 🧪

We are grateful for our regional partnerships that bring these opportunities to students in our community. ⭐️
