Teacher Education
Nextech equips educators with no-cost professional development, leading-edge training, and access to a dynamic statewide network of peers. Whether teachers are new to computer science or looking to deepen their skills, we’re here to provide the resources and support they need—including ready-to-use lesson plans, real-world learning experiences, and a strong sense of community.
Classroom Resources
At Nextech, we understand how rapidly the technology and education landscapes are changing and how little time schools and teachers have to adjust to the field. We’re committed to partnering with you and your teams to provide lesson plans, curriculum, and classroom tools - at no cost - that make computer science and artificial intelligence education work in all statewide classrooms.
CS for Districts
Nextech stays on top of Indiana’s computer science standards and emerging tech fields like AI and data science so you can focus on larger issues. As a trusted, statewide partner, we help schools and districts confidently navigate curriculum changes, implement best practices in applied learning, and stay relevant and ahead of the curve without added burden on your staff. Amid rapid changes in our tech and education landscapes–especially with the emergence of AI–we are a resource for your entire team, providing answers, support, and industry connections.
Our Approach
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. Nextech equips educators with the tools, training, and resources they need to bring AI, computer science, and emerging technologies to life in their classrooms.
The resources we share are thoroughly vetted, best-in-class curricula, aligned with Indiana academic standards (and Indiana courses), and informed by input from teachers and employers.
Everything we do is always offered at no cost to schools, districts, and teachers due to generous support from grants, partners, and philanthropic organizations.
We are honored to be trusted by teachers and educators across the state since 2015. We started this journey over a decade ago, and our community continues to grow.

The entire week is overall the best PD I've ever been a part of as an educator. Being able to interact with teachers from around the state, learn skills and new knowledge, all while being treated as professionals...is beyond amazing. We are all treated so well the entire week and are able to expand our CS knowledge base in the process.
