Future Ready, Today!
Since 2015 we've introduced more than 2,300 young people in Metro Atlanta to computer coding and 21st Century Skills. Those young people have written over 550,000 lines of code and completed hundreds of projects. We've worked with 25 organizations and schools, and directly with families. We do this in order to help close the opportunity gap and diversify tomorrow's technology workforce.
Higher Ground Education, Inc. (HGEI) is an Atlanta, Georgia B Corporation, that enables young people to leverage today's technology to reach their maximum potential.
Our mission is to close the technology career opportunity gap and diversify tomorrow's technology workforce.
Our vision is that every young person we engage is successful in the future technology careers that are on the horizon.

Nerd Ninjaz
As technology continues to expand and evolve, understanding and writing code has become a new form of literacy. The Nerd Ninjaz Online Dojo prepares young people for today's technological revolution that is crucial for their future and ours. The true value in teaching youth to code is not in the syntax but in the way it teaches youth to think using step-by-step, logic, and collaboration to complete projects.
Factor X
Factor X is our Intermediate Class designed to support young people ages 14 - 18 in learning computer science fundamentals and developing computer coding skills. They learn computer coding languages (HTML5, CSS3, JavaScript, Unity, and others) to create websites, apps, games, animations, and digital stories. Participants finish with a portfolio of completed projects to be shared with the world.
Nerd Ninjaz & Factor X emphasize the critical 21st Century Skills of CREATIVITY, COLLABORATION, CRITICAL THINKING, COMMUNICATION, and CITIZENSHIP so our young people can be successful in life.
