Taking The Leap: GA Career Shifters in Canada | Calgary

About this event

Taking a leap of faith can be rewarding in many ways. When we trust our inner intuition, it rarely fails us. Career pivots can involve friction, disruption, and risk compared to simply staying on a more linear and traditional career path. For this special event, we have invited GA alumni who chose to take a leap of faith. Together, we will discuss how they decided to join GA, how the transition into their new careers has been evolving since graduating, their experience with the program, and advice for those considering similar paths.

What to expect? Do you want to learn more about General Assembly's courses and discover what it's like to be a GA student? Come and listen to several alumni of GA's programs talk about their experiences before, during, and after their classes.

Takeaways

Our alumni's stories will cover such topics as: - Why influenced their decision making in taking a class at GA - The steps that followed the decision - What the experience was like taking a course online - What it has been like finding a new career post-course and, of course, answering questions from our event attendees!
