How It Works

Who it’s for

Students aged 10+ and educators across Bavaria and Czechia.

What happens

Workshops, lectures, clubs, online courses, summer schools, conferences, and public engagement activities.

How learning works

Gamification, storytelling, simulations, project-based learning, Minecraft-based activities, and direct contact with researchers and innovators.

What participants gain

Confidence with complex concepts, practical future skills, digital badges, international connections, and clearer pathways into further study and careers.

Why It Feels Different

It is a new learning experience designed to make advanced technologies understandable, motivating, and relevant.

Gamified Learning

Complex ideas become easier to explore through play, storytelling, and interactive challenges.

Hands-on Experience

Participants do not just hear about quantum concepts — they test, build, simulate, and experiment.

Future Skills Development

The programme strengthens scientific thinking, digital literacy, problem-solving, creativity, and technical confidence.

Cross-Border Collaboration

Students and educators from both sides of the border learn together, exchange perspectives, and build new connections.

Choose Your Path

A modular learning system makes it possible to enter the programme at different stages and grow step by step.

Junior Explorers (10–13)

Discover the foundations of quantum science through interactive workshops, practical activities, storytelling, and gamified learning. Build curiosity, logic, and a strong STEM foundation.

Young Innovators (14–17)

Go further with simulations, deeper courses, and project-based challenges. Explore how quantum technologies connect to real-world innovation, research, and entrepreneurship.

Future Leaders (17+)

Gain hands-on experience with quantum simulators, advanced applications, and real use cases. Develop the skills, confidence, and networks needed for future study and career pathways.

Educators

Access training, teaching materials, and a micro-certification pathway designed to help educators bring quantum technologies into the classroom with confidence and clarity.

What You’ll Do

The academy combines multiple formats so participants can explore, return, and progress over time.

School Talks & Workshops

Short and motivating sessions introducing current trends in quantum physics, quantum technologies, and their applications

Quantum Clubs

Regular club-based activities where learners explore concepts like superposition, entanglement, and teleportation in playful, collaborative ways.

Online Quantum Programming

Structured beginner and advanced online courses focused on programming logic, simulation, and Minecraft-based quantum learning environments.

Summer Schools

Intensive one-week programmes combining lectures, advanced activities, teamwork, and cross-border exchange.

Conferences & Public Events

Large-format events for students, families, and the wider public, opening access to the latest ideas, demonstrations, and study opportunities.

Open Learning Materials

Teaching resources and learning materials designed to support long-term use in schools, workshops, and further education

Step Into the Quantum Learning World

What Comes Out of It

The goal is not only to explain quantum technologies, but to create a stronger future learning ecosystem in the region.
