Explore engaging workshops in mathematics and computer science offered by the CEMC.
Each year, the CEMC hosts the SPARCS (Seeing Possibilities and Rewards in Computer Science) workshop to encourage Grade 9 and 10 students of gender identities under-represented in computer science to dive into the world of computer science.
CS Escape is a virtual workshop designed to introduce programming to Grade 8 students who identify as a girl and have very little or no programming experience. We also welcome gender minorities who feel comfortable in a space that centres the experiences of women.
We thank Hudson River Trading for being the exclusive sponsor for the Canadian IOI team.
This course includes the material typically taught in Grades 9 to 11 across Canada and sometimes extends ideas beyond grade level.
Discovering Math Camp is a virtual enrichment program for Ontario students in Grades 6 to 8, held online during March break. The camp offers interactive lessons and activities to enhance mathematical understanding and problem-solving skills, prioritizing students from underserved communities.
