Focused in on 4K microscope learning opportunities

With the help of gigabit technology, students in Hamilton County have remote video access to a high-powered 4K microscope for their environmental and biomedical studies.

Housed at STEM School Chattanooga, the microscope is so powerful that it is usually only found in scientific labs such as those at the Centers for Disease Control. But when combined with our community’s advanced infrastructure, this tool offers students a kind of educational experience never before seen.

Helping generate brighter futures at Tyner Academy

In partnership with Hamilton County Schools’ Future Ready Institute, the EPB Institute of Technology & Networking was developed to provide mentoring and training assistance to students pursuing careers in computer coding and information technology. A special IT-based curriculum helps instill in students a strong understanding of computer technology and the programming needed to succeed in high-demand career opportunities.

Both at the Institute and onsite at EPB, students commit to a high school career of learning the mechanics of programming, assembling and troubleshooting advanced computer systems.
