All tracks
Laid out in the order a rookie team works through them. You can take them in any order, but if you are brand new, start with FIRST — it explains what you are signing up for before you spend any money.
Start with FIRSTFIRST
How FTC actually works, and the FIRST organisation behind it — the season timeline, costs, Core Values, scholarships, and every official resource.
Mechanical
Understand drivetrains, gear ratios, linear slides, arms and intakes — then build them so they survive a season.
Electronics
Wire a legal, reliable robot — Control Hub, motors, servos, and sensors — and fix it when it stops working.
Programming
Write the Java that actually drives your robot — TeleOp, autonomous, sensors, and control loops.
CAD
Design robot parts in Onshape — from your first sketch to a full assembly your team can actually build.
Business
The engine of your team. Funding, sponsors, outreach, and the judged awards that turn all of it into advancement.
