To broaden the work experiences of Ideals graduates, several student-run enterprises in technology and business were established to promote hands-on learning and training in technology, construction, e-commerce, music entrepreneurship, STEM, web design, and more. Ideal seeks to partner with businesses and corporations who want to make a social impact in the lives of Ideals students. Ideal welcomes all students who want to learn and grow regardless of whatever barriers they may face.

| IRS990ScheduleO/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt | 0 | Ideal Education DBA Ideal Institute of Technology is a 501 (c) 3 non-profit private career school that is licensed by the State of New Jersey Department of Education and the Department of Labor and Workforce Development. Ideal Education is fully accredited by the Middle States Association. Ideal Institute operates two campuses in Atlantic County, New Jersey. The main campus is headquartered at 4403 Black Horse Pike, Unit 2141, Mays Landing; and the second campus is located at 121-123 S. Main Street, Pleasantville. A future home for Ideal is underway at 1000 W. Washington Ave., Pleasantville. Ideal, founded by Dhiren and Mital Parikh, opened its doors in 2016 in Absecon, NJ. Since the service industry dominated Atlantic County, the founders wanted to bring technology and business programs to adults to help them find sustainable, high paying employment. Microsoft Office, Computer Programs, Web Development, and Entrepreneurship programs are among the most popular programs of study. Many adults earned industry certifications in those programs and moved on to new employment. To broaden the work experiences of Ideals graduates, several student-run enterprises in technology and business were established to promote hands-on learning and training in technology, construction, e-commerce, music entrepreneurship, STEM, web design, and more. Ideal seeks to partner with businesses and corporations who want to make a social impact in the lives of Ideals students. Ideal welcomes all students who want to learn and grow regardless of whatever barriers they may face. Financial assistance is available to eligible students and funding is available to veterans through the VA. Ideal is bringing technology to Southern New Jersey with the vision to make it the next Silicon Valley one student at a time. |
