Empowering career possibilities

We started Hats & Ladders in 2015 to help reimagine career education for youth. Building off twenty years of developing award-winning educational games and interactive experiences, we created a platform designed to motivate youth to explore, experiment with, and prepare for a wide range of careers.

The platform provides youth with the tools and guidance to navigate the exciting world of work—building bridges between young talent and real-world opportunities and turning career dreams into reality.
