FORT MYERS, Fla. - TelAve -- As artificial intelligence rapidly reshapes the world of work, Goodwill is stepping forward with free digital skills training, including Google AI Specialization and AI Prompting certificate programs, to ensure that every job seeker has the opportunity to stay competitive, confident, and prepared for the future.

Across industries, employers continue to experience rapid technological transformation. For many workers, the pace of change has created a sense of uncertainty, especially with constant headlines urging people to master new tools or adopt AI skills without clear direction on where to start. Goodwill's free digital training opportunities offer a simple, accessible, supportive pathway for anyone looking to build the skills that matter most.

Preparing Workers for What's Next

The Google AI Specialization and AI Prompting certificate courses introduce learners to practical, easy-to-understand AI skills, with no technical background required. Participants learn how AI works, where it's most helpful, and how to use prompting to improve everyday tasks. These self-paced programs help learners deepen the skills they already use, strengthen critical soft skills like communication and adaptability, and build a foundational understanding of how to work effectively alongside emerging technologies. At the same time, they provide a future-focused approach that helps individuals position themselves for new responsibilities and opportunities as jobs evolve.
