The COVID-19 pandemic has caused millions of people to lose their jobs in 2020. Google is doing something about it with Grow With Google OnAir, a portal that features free virtual workshops, events and 1:1 coaching sessions to help the unemployed.

The point of Grow With Google OnAir is to make the digital tools available to those people who are trying to get jobs again in this tough economy.

“Face to face learning has always been integral to Grow with Google’s mission. Since that’s no longer possible, we are pivoting our resources to a virtual space that is personalized and interactive to give users an equally beneficial experience,” said Jesse Haines, Director of Grow with Google. “We hope that people across the country — including jobseekers and small business owners— can boost their potential with the diverse content contributed by our Grow with Google team and our incredible partners.”

The unemployment numbers are expected to approach more than 20%, which harkens back to the Great Depression.

Here are the titles of some of the online classes and workshops available:

  • Fundamentals Of Online Marketing
