Heard about "Vibe coding" but not seen it in action?
Vibe Coding is essentially building software by describing what you want without the need to write or understand a programming language/code. It is one of the fastest-moving opportunities and shifts in how software is being built today and makes it easier than ever to bring software ideas to life quickly.
This session is a live introduction to Vibe Coding - what it is and how it works.
Join Caron Chung and Maya Kurup for a real-time demo: we'll take an idea and build it live using AI Studio (in GHL), showing how its possible to speak software into existance using natural language, iteration, and the right tool — no coding background required.
This is an introductory, no jargon look-and-learn session for anyone curious about vibe coding. We will share with you how to explore the opportunity to build your own software for free this summer.
Hope you can join us.

Free AI Professional Certification from Google: Use It, or Build a Business On It.
Course 4: AI for Writing & Communication
Join us as we work through Google's AI Professional Certificate on Google Skills — completely free. We're working together, live, one course a week, for 7 weeks.
At the end of the 7 weeks, you'll be comfortable with the core content, and have enough hands on practice to help you earn you certificate through the Google Skills platform using their 7-day free trial.
Note: Coursera offers the same certificate for $49 USD for the one month you need the extra time. Plus, with Coursera, you get a 90 day free trial of Google AI Pro, not just 30 days.
Either way, it's optional, and by week 7, you'll already know the material cold, so it's a fast finish if you choose to add it.
Whether you want to put AI to work in your business, or build a brand-new AI service offering as your business, this is the on-ramp.
Three ways this pays off:
1\. Use the certificate to pivot into a career as an AI Professional\.
Whether you are mid-career or a fresh graduate, this certificate tells potential employers that you know how to leverage AI to increase your productivity - and that you care enough to invest in your own education.
2\. Use AI to run your business better\.
Walk away knowing how to use Gemini, NotebookLM, and AI Studio for the stuff that eats your week: research, content, data, planning, communications. Real prompts and workflows you'll use the next morning — not theory.
3\. Turn it into a new offering for your business\.
The Google name carries real weight on a profile. If you choose to get the official certificate, you have a credible, recognizable badge to anchor an AI-consulting service: helping other business owners do what you just learned. We've watched this exact path work for people in our other AI sessions; this is the structured, certified version of it.
What you'll walk away with:
• Google's AI Professional Certificate (free from Google Skills or paid through Coursera membership)
• Full fluency with the Google AI Professional curriculum
• A portfolio: research hub, content assets, a data project, a working AI-built app
• Real workflows for your own business, or a packaged offering to sell to others
• 7 weeks of momentum instead of a free course that sits half-finished
The format:
• Every week for 7 weeks: 90 minutes per week (+ practice time)
• 10:00 AM EDT \\\| 3:00 PM BST \\\| 7:30 PM IST
• Live walkthrough + Q&A, work alongside the group
• 100% free — Google's course, free Meetup, just show up
Who this is for:
• New grads and mid-career professionals who want to pivot into a career as an AI Professional.
• Business owners (or recent grads) curious about AI who haven't found the time to dive in solo,
• Business owners who see AI consulting as their next revenue line.
No coding background needed. No prior AI experience needed.
Group accountability beats solo procrastination. Every time. Let's learn together.
Note: This event is being shared across multiple groups, including AI student groups - we're expecting a mix of attendees at various levels in their careers. Get Google Certified with the July/August 2026 AI Professionals Network cohort.
