The program

A six-week hybrid program built for real workplace progress.

Career Forward™ combines self-paced lessons, live instruction, guided practice, and applied projects so you finish with skills you can use and evidence you can show.

How the six weeks work

Hybrid by design: learn, practice, apply

Each week pairs short self-paced lessons with a live Zoom session and guided practice, so new skills are applied while they are still fresh.

Self-Paced Learning

Guided Teachable lessons you work through on your own schedule.

Live Zoom Sessions

Weekly live sessions where you can ask questions, practice, and get support.

Responsible AI

Use AI as a tool while your judgment, voice, and decisions stay at the center.

Applied Workplace Practice

Realistic professional situations, including Inside the HR Room.

Portfolio Evidence

Career documents and work samples that show what you can do.

30-Day Career Action Project

Turn one career goal into documented, measurable action.
