A Family-Owned Summer Camp

Our Story

A decade ago, in a studio above a garage, we began with a simple mission. Concerned with growing a better world for our children, we set out to ignite the internalDrive in our students. Today, more students enroll at iD Tech Camps than any other tech camp. Nobody has dedicated their lives, passion and focus to this business like our team. We have a commitment to deliver the best. This is the iD Difference.

We strive daily to realize the core values that guide us:

• Inspiration: Ignite new interests and ideas while satisfying current curiosities
• Determination: Encourage empowerment and personal expression through technology
• Education: High-caliber, hands-on instruction exploring relevant software and curriculum
• Awareness: Illustrate how technology can impact our world
• Leadership: Develop strong technical and life skills that extend past “camp”

We set expectations high - your children deserve that. It’s time to expect more. If you choose just one summer program, we hope you seriously consider iD. Welcome! We also invite you to read a letter from the president of internalDrive, Inc.

The Launch in 1999

In a tiny studio nestled in the mountains surrounding California’s Silicon Valley, our family met to address the pressing need of technology education for kids and teens. Our solution: to present the finest technology instruction, delivered in a summer camp setting and held at prestigious universities. Since our inception in 1999, managing quality and safety has been paramount. Our coveted leadership position in the summer camp industry is a responsibility we don’t take lightly.

Celebrating 11 Seasons in 2009!

After 11 seasons as a distinguished family-owned and operated company, our summer computer camps are widely respected on a national level for paying close attention to the details YOU care about: risk management, hand-selected staff, personalized instruction, and new friendships forged in a stimulating, collegiate setting. We blend the nostalgia of traditional summer camps with our visionary technology programs. Our company, internalDrive, Inc. comprises the flagship iD Tech Camps brand, along with the iD Gaming Academy, iD Film Academy, iD Programming Academy and iD OnSite.
