Gaming Concepts, renowned as the pinnacle of excellence in evidence-based esports curriculum for schools, integrates esports with state standards, digital citizenship, and college and career readiness, engaging students and bringing renewed excitement to educators worldwide. 


Gaming Concepts is a way to start a conversation that kids want to be involved in. They want to be involved with games. They want to be engaged with it. They are collaborating with people who they might never have talked to before. They are working on themselves. They are working on really evaluating their own performance within a team and looking at those other roles besides being a player,”
