Albert Einstein, the German physicist, said that "creativity is intelligence having fun". Today, this phrase makes more sense than ever, since creativity not only helps people achieve their goals efficiently, but also promotes innovation and development in the social, academic, scientific and technological sectors. Aware of this reality, the educational market is looking for teachers who foster students' creative skills through techniques such as games, music and the arts. Responding to this demand, TECH presents a 100% online program that allows educators to learn about the most effective methods to stimulate creativity, the use of robotics projects to foster innovation and the most advanced techniques to assess individual creativity.
