### Inspiring youth since 1963

With over 60 years of experience, the Centre for Education in Mathematics and Computing (CEMC) is the largest outreach organization of its kind in Canada. Our mission is to increase interest, enjoyment, confidence, and ability in mathematics and computer science among learners and educators in Canada and internationally. We work closely with the entire education community to empower students and support educators in creating a lasting impact in math and computing education.

Contests

The [CEMC's] mathematics contests truly foster the development of critical personality traits such as resilience, adaptability, persistence, and strategy-based thought. From our perspective, what a wonderful and unique way to prepare young minds for both the rigours of post-secondary studies and the unpredictable challenges faced in everyday life!\

### Internationally recognized mathematics and computing contests

The CEMC contests are designed by teams of expert mathematicians, computer scientists, and educators for students in Grades 5 to 12, and are a great fit for students across a range of abilities—from learners who want to explore math and computer science and develop their confidence to advanced students who want to stretch their limits.
