"I personally think the Questech technology laboratories we have set up here in our school are a great tool for allowing students to evaluate many different technical job opportunities. The modules I selected are 'hands on', they get students involved, and you can tell they are excited about them."

The Technology Zone is designed to provide a total learning experience in each technology workstation. Academic concepts are reinforced as students combine math, science, reading, and social studies with technological advances and systems in career applications. The curriculum helps students to understand the usefulness of the technology and to learn its real-life applications for problem solving in today's society.

Each workstation includes a ten hour hands-on work experience and comes with curriculum, tools, equipment, and supplies.



The Construction Zone introduces students to the construction trades and to the technology behind the trades. It provides students a hands-on experience with full-size tools of the trade.



Custom Furniture Solutions allows schools to choose colors and sizes. Our Locking Workstation, used in our Construction and Technology Zone product lines, has become popular wherever valuable technology equipment or computer systems need to be secured.
