Learning Grove’s NaviGo program is giving rising high school sophomores, juniors, and seniors a chance to dive into high-demand careers—at no cost. The camps offer a supportive, low-pressure environment designed to spark curiosity and build the confidence students need to succeed in the real world.
Through partnerships with local industry leaders and Gateway Community & Technical College, students step into labs, shops, and training centers to learn by doing.

Special Opportunity: We are also sharing information about University of Kentucky’s SEEK- Summer Engineering Exploration Kamp, a residential camp where students stay on a college campus for a week. While this program has a $65 fee, NaviGo is committed to ensuring cost is never a barrier for students who wish to participate. NaviGo can assist with covering the fee and help arrange transportation to and from the camp.
All NaviGo camps are completely free and include lunch, but space is limited and spots fill quickly.
Help your student take a meaningful step toward their future by applying today.
