In preparation for the 2026 Dong Nai Robotics Competition and STEM Festival, a training program for participating teams was held over two days, April 18–19, at two venues: Cluster 1 at Sonadezi College of Technology and Management (Long Hung ward) and Cluster 2 at Dong Xoai High School (Binh Phuoc ward).

Teams received guidance on robot programming and task execution during the training session at Cluster 1.

A total of 179 teams, each consisting of two students from primary, lower secondary, or upper secondary schools, took part in the training. Of these, 106 teams attended sessions at Cluster 1, while 73 teams participated in Cluster 2. As part of the program, teams received additional STEM and robot programming knowledge, along with instructions on operating robots to complete tasks on the competition field.

The training sessions not only offered participants a deeper understanding of the competition rules and early exposure to key content but also created opportunities for team exchanges and experience-sharing, thereby contributing to the overall quality of the competition. The 2026 Dong Nai Robotics Competition and STEM Festival is scheduled to take place on May 24, 2026, under the theme “Dong Nai Steadfastly Advances into a New Era.” Accordingly, teams will assemble and program robots to compete in live matches, with the organizing committee expected to select 10 outstanding teams from each category to advance to the national regional round.
