Building futures through tech
Since 2014, Hyland’s Tech Outreach programs have delivered free educational opportunities to over 5,000 students, many of whom have gone on to join Hyland as interns and employees. Our initiatives serve students in the U.S., India and Poland, inspiring a new generation of tech talent.
Programs at headquarters
At our Westlake, Ohio headquarters, students in grades 7-12 can explore coding and technology through engaging, hands-on experiences.
Hy-Tech Club
Hyland’s Hy-Tech Club is for students in grades 7-12 who want to learn how to code. Students meet weekly after school for a 12-week semester. Hy-Tech Club gives students the opportunity learn from industry professionals while meeting new friends with similar interests.
Hy-Tech Camps
Hyland's Hy-Tech Camps are an immersive way for students in grades 7-12 to learn about coding and technology while connecting with other like-minded students. By introducing students to a wide range of technology topics, they can find out what they like to do, or even what they may not like to do.
Hyland Hackathon
The Hyland Hackathon is a competition where students team up to build cool software projects over the course of a weekend. The word “hackathon” means hacking marathon — but it’s not about breaking into mainframes or anything like that. It’s all about building something new with code!
Field Trips
Students in grades 7-12 can visit Hyland's Westlake headquarters for an engaging field trip. They’ll explore tech careers through coding activities or guest speakers, tour our facilities and enjoy lunch provided by Hyland. Teachers can email [email protected] to schedule a visit.
Midtown Collaboration Center
Hyland’s Midtown Collaboration Center is a dedicated hub for expanding access to computer science education, supporting traditionally underrepresented and underserved communities in Cleveland. This space is designed to inspire and empower the next generation of tech talent through innovative programming and community collaboration.
Student programming
Hyland’s Tech Outreach team hosts year-round technical education programs, including offerings similar to those at headquarters and new initiatives designed for the audience at the Midtown Collaboration Center.
Support for non-profit partners
The facility is available to Hyland’s non-profit partners for their own programming. Some of the partners who have already engaged with this space are Mosaic Tech Movement, TECH CORPS and University Hospital’s Health Scholars Program.
Expanding access to tech learning
The center prioritizes creating educational opportunities for students who have historically faced barriers in accessing tech education.
Midtown Coding Club
Hyland's Midtown Coding Club is a place for students to play, learn and connect. The club meets on Thursdays at the Midtown Collaboration Center for open-ended computer lab usage, free dinner and hands-on computer science activities. It's totally free, and students can register at any time!
