Dezeen promotion: My Archischool provides an introduction to architectural education and digital design for those seeking knowledge and skills to aid their future career aspirations.
The Hong Kong-based organisation offers in-person and online courses to help young people develop 3D-modelling skills that can be applied to future careers in architecture and urban planning.
Geared towards children and teenagers between the ages of six and 18, the various stages of tuition start at a beginner level, and progress to cover a range of tools, interfaces, and outputs.

"My Archischool's methodology of teaching is rooted in the art of architecture," said the founders. "We teach children the methods and the sequences that practising architects use in their work. "Once they have this basic knowledge, they are taught the necessary skills to create their own work using the various tools we can provide.
