About BuildThatSkill
BuildThatSkill started as a personal project for me—a way to explore and learn the skills necessary to navigate a tough job market. Over time, it evolved into something much more meaningful: a resource for anyone looking to make sense of today’s chaotic economy.
​
We all know that job losses can come out of nowhere, traditional skills might not cut it anymore, and the fast-paced rise of AI is shaking up entire industries practically overnight!
At BuildThatSkill, we believe that no one should feel stuck with outdated skills or held back from new opportunities because of financial barriers. The truth is, many of the most valuable and in-demand skills can be learned for free or at a low cost online. That’s the very reason this platform exists—to spotlight accessible courses and resources, and to introduce SkillSprints. These are short, hands-on, two-day micro-courses aimed at helping you pick up practical skills that you can start applying right away, so you can earn, grow, and succeed.
​
OUR MISSION: Equipping individuals with in-demand, practical skills to thrive in a turbulent, fast-changing economy without the burden of costly formal education.
​
Whether you’re transitioning to a new career, looking to deepen your expertise, or exploring ways to monetize your knowledge, BuildThatSkill is here to help you navigate today’s challenges and work towards a brighter future.
