Whether you are taking your very first step into AI or looking to build custom tools for your team, our goal with the Google AI Professional Certificate has stayed the same: helping you learn how to make AI work for you. Since launching in February, it has become the most popular generative AI certificate of all time on Coursera.
Millions of people have learned to put AI to work with our AI curriculum,
while leading employers like Deloitte, Verizon, Lyft, and Walmart are using the course to train their teams.
But AI moves fast, and we are committed to keeping our curriculum just as dynamic. Lately, our learners have been asking for deeper lessons on vibe coding: describing what you want in everyday language while AI handles the technical code to build and deploy your app. This interest reflects a broader trend, with U.S. search for vibe coding up by 140% on average versus last year.
Our newest vibe coding course launches today. This course helps everyone become a builder, creating robust, shareable apps. We teach you how to plan, test and debug, and deploy your app, turning your best ideas into practical tools. Whether it’s building a custom team dashboard, automating a workflow, or building a customer intake tool, no coding experience is required.
We love seeing what people are building. Take former Walmart truck driver turned Logistics Load Manager Leo Garcia in Bentonville, Arkansas. Using what he learned in the Google AI Professional Certificate, Leo used an internal tool to design four custom applications to optimize operations across several states. One of his apps, “Get My Driver Home,” condensed daily reporting meetings into 15-minute huddles. His app now coordinates shifts for drivers, and Walmart continues to review associate created apps like Leo’s, showing what is possible when you give people the tools and confidence to solve their own challenges.
We are also seeing companies put this training to work in other practical, everyday ways. Verizon is offering the Google AI Professional Certificate to help its workforce build AI fluency. Recent graduates are applying their skills to daily work projects, moving from basic email drafting to building highly customized tools like virtual quoting assistants in Gemini Notebook. By equipping employees with tools and skills, Verizon is empowering its workforce to solve everyday challenges directly within their roles.
“Empowering our workforce and our communities with AI fluency has been a core priority for Verizon. We have been thrilled to offer the Google AI Professional Certificate to our Verizon Small Business customers, Verizon Small Business Digital Ready program users, current management Verizon employees, as well as former employees of Verizon through our Reskilling and Career Transition Fund,” said Donna Epps, Chief Responsible Business Officer of Verizon. “This training has played a key role in helping us deliver more dynamic experiences for the communities we serve and adding these new vibe coding resources will only enhance our impact.”
By expanding our curriculum to include practical skills like vibe coding, we’re continuing our commitment to make AI accessible, relevant, and useful for everyone. Whether you’re streamlining logistics at a multinational company or designing a custom app for your team, the Google AI Professional Certificate is built to help you make AI work for you.
