Technology is reshaping the workforce as quickly as the classroom. Nextech partners with Indiana employers across industries to connect classroom learning to real opportunities. Together we strengthen Indiana’s future talent pipeline by co-creating industry-informed experiences and expanding student access to computer science, AI, and emerging technologies.
What we do for Teachers
Nextech equips educators with the tools, training, and resources they need to bring AI, computer science, and emerging technologies to life in their classrooms. From no-cost professional development and standards-aligned curriculum to peer communities and industry connections, we help teachers stay ahead of what’s new, what’s useful, and what’s next.
What we do for Students
There are countless career paths in technology—far more than most students ever realize—and AI is quickly becoming a part of nearly all of them. At Nextech, we open those doors by bringing AI, computer science, and emerging technologies to life in ways that spark creativity and excitement.
What we do for Partners
Nextech is special because it provides youth the knowledge, skills, and motivation to reach their dreams. Nextech also helps to guide more youth towards tech fields - something that I and those within the program value.

Catapult Participant
Nextech was one of the biggest forces in guiding me to accomplish my goals. I overall didn't know if computer science was for me at the beginning of the year, however, after being able to experience and learn about coding, I can confidently say that I want to continue and pursue this type of work field.
