Education Readiness Grants help Indiana secondary schools prepare students for careers in the fast-growing technology industry. Awarded grants enable school corporations and/or individual school sites to implement Digital Technology programs that are defining the future of digital innovation.
By aligning curricula and experiential learning, students will be ready to meet the needs of Indiana’s technology sector.
TechPoint works with the Commission for Higher Education’s Career and Technical Education team to provide Education Readiness Grants. Awarded schools may receive funding to purchase hardware and/or software that create foundational exposure to AI/Machine Learning, Data Analytics, Information Technology (IT) Operations, and Networking technology being adopted today.
Grant recipients will be Indiana secondary schools who demonstrate a direct connection with the local technology sector and graduate job-ready students with experience and credentials that apply to local employers.
Education Readiness Grants complement Indiana’s Next Level Programs of Study. Schools interested in offering the AI/Machine Learning, Data Analytics, Information Technology (IT) Operations, or Networking programs of study will be able to use funds from Education Readiness Grants to assist with implementation.
