Over the years, FIRST Robotics Canada has put on several workshops for teams:
- Robot Design covers the entire robot design process, discussing FIRST robots and games in general, design priorities and decisions, and design principles and techniques
- Running a Team discusses team organization, both during the January-February 'build season' and through the rest of the year
- Strategy deals with the strategic decisions to be made while designing a robot, as well as competition strategy (scouting, match planning, alliance selection, etc.)
- Electronics & Controls gives an overview of the control system, sensors and programming used in FIRST Robotics
- Mobility describes the different types of FIRST Robotics drive systems, some of the theory of designing a drive system, and some construction techniques and principles
- Pneumatics introduces the pneumatic components used in FIRST Robotics and some typical pneumatic mechanisms
- Omnidirectional Drive Systems dives into the advanced topic of drive systems which can move in any direction
- Mechanical Design covers a range of mechanical design principles and techniques
- FIRST Judging Process comes straight from FIRST HQ as an approved document to help you fill your mantel with awards and contains tips to become an ideal FIRST team
- Programming FRC Robots: CMU Camera goes into the details of using the provided CMU2 camera to track objects
- Programming FRC Robots: PID Control discusses how to use Proportional-Integral-Derivative (PID) control to achieve fast and accurate autonomous motion
