New TEAMS Partnership
Through a dynamic partnership between the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics (NCTM) and the Technology Student Association (TSA), the organizations will collaboratively operate the TEAMS program to elevate the mathematics, science, and engineering experience for middle and high school student participants. This shared commitment strengthens the TEAMS competition by integrating expertise from both communities to inspire innovation, critical thinking, and real-world problem solving.
Together, NCTM and TSA will collaborate to develop rigorous competition challenges and high-quality educational resources designed to engage students, support educators, and promote excellence in STEM learning. This unified approach ensures that TEAMS participants benefit from a rich, meaningful experience that prepares them for future academic and career success in mathematics, science, engineering, and beyond.
What can participants expect in 2027?
Teams can expect additional resources and enhanced content designed to support preparation for the TEAMS competition. The format and four competition components remain unchanged.
