Bring your students
Ultra4Next takes students into working fabrication shops, race parts factories, and creative studios — and puts them to work at the KOH Lab in Johnson Valley. There is no fee to participate.
Everything you need to get started is on this page. Use these packets as they are, or adapt them for your program.

Student Interest Packet
Students explore this website, answer what they found, then rank what they actually want to do. Use it to choose who goes on each trip.
- Website exploration worksheet
- Ranked interest areas and trip choices
- Availability, PPE, and commitment checklist
- Instructor scoring section
Partner School Packet
What Ultra4Next is, what your students get, what your school commits to, how scheduling works, and how to start. Share it with an administrator.
- What your school gets
- What your school commits to
- How dates get scheduled and confirmed
- Five steps to your first trip
Completed student packets stay at your school. Ultra4Next does not collect or store student records — we only need the roster of who is attending.
How a trip comes together
A date is posted by Ultra4Next, or proposed by your instructor.
Ultra4Next staff approve dates proposed by schools.
The Lab host or the company confirms the site is free that day.
Instructors accept or decline for their school.
The first school to accept confirms it. Others can still join.
Your instructor does all of this in a private scheduling portal, which also has a message board for coordinating with staff and company hosts. Sign in here if you already have an access code.

Cost, and who covers it
There is no fee for a school to participate. For each trip we look for a company sponsor to cover the students' expenses — transportation, meals, and safety gear — so that a school's budget never decides which students get to come.
If a trip has no sponsor yet, tell us. We would rather find one than have your students miss it.
Start with one trip
Tell us your school, your program, and roughly how many students you would bring. We will set up a call, get your instructor a portal login, and find a date. Start with one trip and see how it goes.
