Young ICT Explorers: Inspiring the Next Generation of STEM Talent

What happens when young people are given the opportunity to solve real-world problems with technology? They develop the skills, confidence, and curiosity that can shape the future of STEM.

That's exactly what Young ICT Explorers (YICTE) aims to do. With registrations now open for 2026, this free national competition invites students in Years 3–12 to bring their ideas to life through digital technologies, innovation, and creative problem-solving.

We are passionate about growing the next generation of STEM talent, which is why we're excited to spotlight YICTE. Whether you're a parent, teacher, mentor, or STEM professional, this is a fantastic opportunity to encourage young people to explore what's possible with technology.

Do you have, teach, mentor, or know a young person with an interest in technology, coding, robotics, gaming, AI, or solving problems creatively? Share this opportunity with them and read the full article to learn how they can get involved.
