The Virginia Children's Engineering Council (VCEC) is dedicated to developing design and technology instructional material, and providing local, regional and statewide inservice opportunities for educators at grades K-5.

The inservice programs help teachers ensure that children develop an understanding of how to use, create, control, and assess technology. These instructional experiences are provided in a design, critical thinking, and problem solving context. They undergird attainment of selected Standards of Learning in English, mathematics, science, and history and social science.
