We’re working to help people advance their careers by making digital skills accessible to everyone. To date, we have helped nearly 170,000 Americans get a new job and increase their income through digital skills training. Google’s Applied Digital Skills program provides lessons on how to create a resume, how to communicate effectively at work, and more. Google Career Certificates are flexible online courses, available in English and subtitled in Spanish, designed to prepare students for entry-level jobs in high-growth fields like IT Support, data analytics, and UX design. Our recent $100 million Google Career Certificates Fund aims to enable Google.org grantee, Social Finance to reach more than 20,000 American workers. This investment in America’s future has the potential to drive $1 billion in wage gains. Grow with Google Career Readiness programs help students develop skills to secure internships and jobs that will help them build successful careers. We partner with the Thurgood Marshall College Fund (TMCF), the Hispanic Association of Colleges and Universities (HACU) and Partnership with Native Americans (PWNA), to bring digital skills and workforce training to Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs), Hispanic-Serving Institutions (HSIs), and Native-Serving Organizations (NSOs). Together, we’ll train more than 250,000 students by 2025. We work with a network of external organizations to deliver our job seeker trainings to communities of color. For example, in partnership with Dress for Success, The Links, Inc., and sororities in the National Pan-Hellenic Council, Grow with Google created Black Women Lead, an initiative to train 100,000 Black women in digital skills by 2022. We’ve also partnered with the Hispanic Federation and the Latino Community Foundation, and have helped 10,000 individuals upskill through digital skills and job readiness trainings so far. We’re working to support Veterans, service members, and military spouses and partners in transition to the civilian workforce. We also added minicourses on the Primer app specifically for military spouses and partners on topics including transitioning to remote work, working from home, and starting and growing an online business. Through our Grow with Google Partner Program we work with over 1,000 military and Veteran-serving organizations across the U.S. who propel our workshops and have trained nearly 20,000 people in the military-affiliated community so far.

Another Google service will soon join the company’s graveyard of apps . The search giant quietly announced this week it is shutting down Duplex on the Web. In a support page spotted by TechCrunch , the company notes the service won’t work after the end of 2022. “As we continue to improve the Duplex experience, we’re responding to the feedback we’ve heard from users and developers about how to make it even better,” a Google spokesperson told the outlet. “By the end of this year, we’ll turn down Duplex on the Web and fully focus on making AI advancements to the Duplex voice technology that helps people most every day.” Google first announced Duplex on the Web in 2019 as an expansion of its Duplex phone reservation AI . Initially, the feature was designed to help Android users buy movie tickets. Duplex on the Web gave Assistant the ability to navigate websites on its own. Provided you had your credit card information stored on Chrome, Assistant could take care of all of the busy work of buying film tickets for you. Google later expanded the feature to protect users against online data breaches. At one point, you could also use it to check into flights and track discounts. As for the reason why Google is shutting down Duplex on the Web, TechCrunch suggests it may have something to do with the cost of training an AI to parse websites. The feature’s support page notes Google used a special user agent to crawl websites as much multiple times per day. What's more, the performance of Duplex on the Web could suffer significantly if website administrators prevented the crawler from indexing their content.
