Mission

Using STEM Team Challenges, social-emotional learning, and project-based learning, CA Creativity Association teaches K-12 children problem-solving and critical thinking skills. These skills better prepare students to be successful in their lives and in the future work place.

Tournaments: As part of any educational process there needs to be an evaluation of the learning accomplished by the participants. The tournaments, held throughout CA, provide an evaluation for both the team's level of learning and their project based solutions. CA Creativity (dba CA Destination Imagination) provides Regional appraiser trainings and tournaments. The best of the teams in each Region advance to the State Finals - an event attended by over 3,000 people. The winners are then invited to attend Global Finals held within the US. The final 2,000 teams in the world compete. CA Creativity supports the CA teams that go to Global Finals - see first item above.
