The Robotics Education and Competition (REC) Foundation has been running
robotics programs for youth for years, including the widespread global
competitions sponsored by VEX Robotics. Dan Mantz is the CEO of the REC
Foundation, leading this nonprofit through the pandemic, after previously
working in industrial engineering and robotics for over twenty years. He talks
about the REC Foundation's mission, how they changed their competitions during
COVID, and their newer programs in manufacturing education and workforce
development. Related to this episode: • REC Foundation:
