What you'll learn

You may be an individual contributor in tech who is good at your work, but feel like your impact is not seen, remembered, or connected to growth opportunities. You want to grow in your role, earn stronger recognition, and stay relevant as AI changes the nature of technical work. In this course, Career Growth: Making Your Impact Visible, you’ll learn how to make technical work easier for others to see, understand, and remember. First, you’ll explore why valuable work often stays invisible, especially when it disappears into closed tickets, resolved alerts, finished requests, shipped changes, or quiet problem-solving. Then, you’ll discover how to shift from simply completing work to communicating impact, judgment, and outcomes in a way that builds credibility. Finally, you’ll learn how to become known for the right things across your team and organization without turning career growth into office politics or self-promotion. When you’re finished with this course, you’ll be able to identify work worth making visible, communicate your impact in practical day-to-day moments, and build a visibility habit that supports stronger trust, opportunity, and career growth.
