    Skills Move Faster: Your free 5-week guide to keeping pace with AI (plus exclusive end-of-summer perks)

    General Assembly
    September 2, 2025


    Think fast.

    What do you see? Maybe a cheetah tearing across the savannah, an F1 car screaming down the track, or Usain Bolt breaking world records. But here’s the truth: nothing moves faster than today’s skills—especially now that AI is in the driver’s seat.

    The pace of change in tech, data, design, and just about every discipline has gone from brisk to breakneck. With AI reshaping entire industries almost overnight, what you know today might not be enough to stand out tomorrow. That’s why we’re launching Skills Move Faster, a free five-week global series of classes running September 30 through October 30 to help you find your speed—and get ahead.

    Why skills matter more than ever

    We’re living in an era where employees are expected to do more with less. It’s not enough to just “get by” in your role—you need the kind of skills that give you leverage. The kind that help you finish in hours what used to take days. The kind that make you the go-to person when the stakes are high.

    And right now, those skills are evolving faster than anyone expected. Coding, data analysis, marketing, UX design, prompt writing—each of these is changing in real time as AI transforms how work gets done.

    The takeaway: if you’re not learning, you’re losing ground. But the good news? Our Skills Move Faster series is designed to make staying sharp easy, fun, and totally free.

    Introducing the Skills Move Faster series—packed with new free classes

    From Generative AI Basics to AI for Job Search to Boost Productivity with AI, our sessions are short, beginner-friendly, and laser-focused on helping you apply what you learn right away.

    Here’s just a taste of what you’ll get over the five-week run:

    • Generative AI Basics: Understand the fundamentals so you can join the conversation (and lead it).
    • Prompt Writing 101: Get faster, better results from AI tools by mastering the art of the ask.
    • AI for Job Search: Land your next role faster with AI-powered tools and strategies.
    • Boost Productivity with AI: Learn how to work smarter, not longer.
    • AI for Insightful Data Analysis: Turn numbers into narratives with AI as your co-pilot.
    • Unleash Design Creativity with AI: See how AI is reshaping UX and creative workflows.
    • Kickstart Your Business with AI: From business plans to pitch decks, AI can get you there faster.
    • Power Up Your Marketing with AI: Learn how to leverage AI to level up your digital marketing game.
    • Vibe Coding 101: Your intro to vibe coding and how to use AI, LLMs, and simple tools to build projects fast without the tech overwhelm.
    • Build What’s Next: AI for PMs: Make AI your trusted ally and enhance your project management workflows.

    With sessions offered across North America, Europe, the Middle East, and Singapore, you can join live from almost anywhere in the world.
