Infocomm Media Club students and teachers should use IMDA’s LEARN Bootcamps and Accelerators page for the current programme list, audience, dates, requirements and application route. Each entry can have a different provider and status, so read the chosen programme’s section rather than relying on the page title alone.
Bootcamps are industry-backed holiday programmes that deepen an Infocomm Media Club member’s exposure to technology or media. Accelerators are more intensive training programmes in which students develop practical solutions, often over weekends or school holidays and sometimes with prior-skill or schedule commitments.
On the page reviewed on 21 October 2026, several 2026 bootcamp dates had passed or showed closed or allocated places, while accelerator sections carried their own update routes. Do not reuse an old form. Check the live programme section and any named provider page before asking a school to approve participation.

Which pages own the programme information?
The LEARN Bootcamps and Accelerators page owns the current programme entries. The wider Infocomm Media Clubs hub explains who the club programme serves, while an entry’s named vendor page or application form owns course-specific registration. LEARN Roadmaps are a separate, school-arranged training mode and should not be treated as the same application.
| Your question | Best source | What to verify |
|---|---|---|
| Which programmes are listed now? | IMDA bootcamps and accelerators page | Audience, dates, requirements and status |
| Who is the programme family for? | IMDA Infocomm Media Clubs hub | Club membership and school-level context |
| Where does the application go? | Provider or form linked in the chosen entry | Live form, deadline and confirmation route |
| Is this the school’s regular training? | eduKate LEARN Roadmaps guide | Roadmap application versus holiday programme |
What should students and schools check first?
1. Distinguish a bootcamp from an accelerator
A short holiday bootcamp and a multi-month accelerator create different commitments. Examples on the official page range from game development and robotics to AI, coding, digital marketing and app development. Use the exact entry to understand the format instead of assuming that all LEARN opportunities have the same length or learning depth.
2. Match the listed audience
The target group can be primary pupils, secondary students, upper-secondary students or JC students. Some entries also state prior programming, Mathematics or statistics expectations. Meeting an age label does not automatically mean a student is ready for the workload; check both the stated level and the specific prerequisites.
3. Read the current status before planning
A past date, closed exercise or fully allocated programme is not open for a new application. Save the official page as the monitoring source and follow the current provider link only when the entry says applications are available. Historical details can show what a programme involved, but they do not guarantee another run or identical requirements.
4. Confirm equipment, schedule and approval
Each entry may specify devices, accounts, venue, multi-day attendance or a longer training commitment. Students should involve the Infocomm Media Club teacher before applying, because CCA participation, school approval and external registration are connected but not identical. Keep the provider’s confirmation and final instructions together.
A practical next step
Open the current IMDA page and shortlist only entries matching the student’s level and present status. Copy the dates, prerequisites, equipment and application owner into one checklist, then discuss it with the club teacher. Apply through the live linked route and wait for confirmation before committing transport, devices or other activities.
For sustained school-based training, use the separate LEARN Roadmaps application guide. Students mapping a longer route from school activities into subjects and careers can continue with eduKate’s technology careers and school-subject pathway.
