In 2023, IACT took its two major initiatives in creative skills micro-credentials and creative place initiatives and design, and spun them out to two campus areas outside of IACT. To learn more about creative place initiatives and design, contact Mike Puckett in Academic Affairs and Learning Initiatives.

The GEM is a place where all learners have the opportunity to build their creative skills.
The GEM at The Hub (Dayton Arcade) merges creative skill building into existing curriculum or programs focused on equity, workforce skill development, and/or personal growth mindset.
Empathize
A place to meet, and begin to observe, engage and immerse in each other’s passions and ideas.
Prototype
A place to take those common passions and ideas and continue to explore multiple solutions, while building on empathetic understanding and bringing visions to life.
Test
A place to refine prototypes with a “fail fast/fail forward” mindset, learn more about each other in the process and find unexpected outcomes.
