General Assembly

Today’s complex, global economy requires a skilled workforce that can leverage technology to fuel success. Since 2011, General Assembly has transformed careers and teams through pioneering, experiential education in today’s most in-demand skills.

GA was founded on the principle of empowering people to pursue the work they love. Since we opened our first campus in 2011, we have had the privilege of working with students, governments, and the world’s largest companies to create opportunities to radically transform careers and economic prospects.
