Products & Services

At Encourage -N- Empower (E-N-E), both our exclusive Practicums and Internships (Paid & Non-Paid) inspire our students to craft a pioneering ‘Personal Portfolio’ that functions as a strategic tie-breaker – even amidst competitive college admissions and challenging corporate interviewsE-N-E Open-Source Technologies for discovery-based, ‘hands-on’ learning includes the following:

Core Hi-Tech:

Robotics AI Vision Engineering (R.A.I.V.E.)

E-N-E B150 & B250 Bots
  • See photos below for our Robotic Technologies as Showcased at The Tech Interactive Museum, SJ(photos both next Section B100_Bot & next Web-Page ‘Awards-History’), a Microsoft Tech Camp w/ 200+ Kids, and Internationally at a Malaysian Tech Camp w/ 100+ Kids (rendering our Open-Source Platform as ‘World-Class‘), all featuring leading-edge processors from ‘micro:bit‘, Raspberry Pi, and NVIDIA.

Web Engineering: Front-End & Back-End
(W.E.F.E. & W.E.B.E.)

E-N-E Cloud-Based Personal Portfolio
  • Our Innovation w/ Raspberry-Pi Python-Servers has Earned us a Back-End Engineering Contract with a World’sLeader in Energy Web-Management – Siemens: eMeter Division.
  • Using our ‘Amazingly (But Cautiously) Free‘ Open-Source Front-End ‘WordPress‘ Resources (driving 43% World’sWeb in 2023), such as w/ our Website: E-N-E.org.

Interactive Content Engineering (I.C.E.)

E-N-E XD/XR (2D-3D/AR-VR) Graphics
  • Awarded Highest-Recognition form Amazon.com Engineering at First LEGO League ‘Innovation Project Competition’ re: our AR (Augmented Reality) Visual Home-Dropoff System w/ the $3,500 Microsoft HoloLens 2.
  • Our Exclusive ‘Computer Science through Game/Graphic Engines’ Exhibit Premiered at the World-Renown Maker Fairein partnership with both the Exploratorium Museum, SF and The Tech Interactive Museum, SJ (photos @ under I.C.E. Section below).

Hybrid Hi-Tech:

Medical AI Vision Engineering (M.A.I.V.E)

E-N-E M150 Medic (for Summer+ 2025)
  • New, Under Construction for Advanced 3rd Year Students.

Vision & Background

With the recent de-emphasis on SAT/ACT scores for College Admissions, greater weight is being placed on both the 1) academic GPA and 2) extra-curricular activities.  Regarding the latter (extra-curricur activities), E-N-E provide the ‘tie-breaking’ industry-experiences that supercedes the oftentimes much: overhyped, overrated, and overstressing acadamic GPA.

Thus, E-N-E encourages and empowers our students – along with the support from parents/guardians – to ‘critically think’ in the realm of both 1) hard skills (in potential career fields) – and – 2) soft skills (e.g. communications & teamwork).  Thus our students do not passively settle as ‘industry-learners‘ – but rather – actively contribute as ‘industry-innovators‘, in responsibly building a stronger community… for life.

Since 2006 of E-N-E‘s 1) Open-Source R&D, 2) family-approach to relational-mentoring and 3) focusing on what’s fun yet foundational, our students are intrinsically motivated to ‘mindfully create/collaborate’ – escaping the negative influences to ‘mindlessly consume’.

By ‘starting early and staying strong’ from Elementary/Jr. High to even High School, E-N-E‘s practicums & internships equip students to collaborate with best-of-breed institutions, such as with prestigious Science Museums (e.g. The Tech Interactive, SJ & Exploratorium, SF) – and – with leading Tech Corporations (e.g. NVIDIA, Siemens & Amazon).

In these next 3-5 years, E-N-E‘s ‘Products & Services‘ as listed in the left column, position ourselves to add our next strand of ‘Collegiate & Corporate Networking‘: establishing local alliances with top Universities (e.g. Stanford and UC Berkeley) – all for a stronger global community.
