Udacity is the trusted market leader in talent transformation. We change lives, businesses, and nations through digital upskilling, developing the edge you need to conquer what's next. Udacity began when Stanford instructors Sebastian Thrun and Peter Norvig had a revolutionary idea to offer their “Introduction to Artificial Intelligence” course online—to anyone, for free. Over 160,000 students in more than 190 countries enrolled, demanding a new way to deliver education. A startling discovery emerged: The top 400 students weren’t from Stanford. This revelation sparked a mission to make lifelong learning more equitable and inclusive. Udacity has been expanding opportunities ever since. Udacity is now part of Accenture. Udacity’s proven playbook is globally scalable, addressing the widespread digital talent shortages that impact growth, productivity, and innovation. We collaborate with enterprises and highly motivated individuals to design a tailored talent transformation journey enabled by our Digital Competency Platform. Our exclusive content is co-created and continually refined with industry leaders. Each Udacity program is deeply focused—eliminating guesswork in selecting the right course. Projects go far beyond step-by-step guides, cultivating the critical thinking required for workplace relevance. Expert mentors unblock learning with personalized support, and verify complete mastery of competencies. We are delivering impactful and cutting edge tech education that enables individuals and organizations to unlock their potential. Center our actions around our customers and learners. Derive motivation from and be guided by measurable outcomes. Champion ongoing learning, challenge norms, and encourage healthy debate to foster a workplace of innovation and exploration. Give the power to ourselves and others to speak up, take data-driven risks, innovate, and embrace change. Collaborate with compassion, respect, and trust. Celebrate the unseen work that makes victories possible. Udacity works with individuals, organizations, and governments interested in upskilling for what's next. In doing so, we drive favorable career outcomes for individual learners, scaled digital transformation for organizations, and meaningful economic change for governments around the globe. And what's more, Udacity's scholarships ensure that those we don't reach through these channels still have a chance to benefit from Udacity's programs.
