The Honors College and UTSA Career Center have partnered with Google and the Hispanic Association of Colleges and Universities to offer the Grow with Google HSI Career Readiness Program to you, free of charge!

Grow with Google (GwG) is a self-paced digital skills program where you will complete five flexible learning paths that focus on building digital skills, exploring career paths, landing a great job, succeeding in the workplace and starting your own business. You will develop digital skills and be a part of career workshops that prepare you for internships and employment. Along the way, you have the opportunity to earn Google swag, get digital badges, a certificate to put on your LinkedIn profile and, if you complete the full program and all of the Honors requirements, you can count this as an experience.
