While the camps are designed to be fun, “when they come out of it, maybe they'll have an interest in engineering," Mr. Wilson said, - adding because of the current eco- nomic climate, a change in how we prepare the younger generation for a career is neces- “The last few months have shown us the jobs we take for granted won’t be around in the future,” he said. “(The new generation of workers) need to be problem solvers; they need to be able to work as a team."
