Grow with Google is an initiative that draws on our 20-year history of building products, platforms, and services that help people and businesses grow. Through Grow with Google, we aim to help everyone across America – those who make up the workforce of today and the students who will drive the workforce of tomorrow – access the best of Google’s training and tools to grow their skills, careers, and businesses.

We are proud that in 2017, 6,300 Delaware businesses, website publishers, and nonprofits benefitted from Google tools and that we helped provide $1.68 billion of economic activity for Delaware organizations (source). And we know that for many small businesses, learning how to harness the Internet can help them grow their business.

We also recognize the importance of digital skills when searching for a job in Delaware. According to the National Skills Coalition, middle-skills jobs account for 51% of all jobs in Delaware, but only 43% of state workers are trained to the middle-skill level.

We’re excited to partner with terrific libraries and community organizations throughout the state to help Delaware job seekers and small businesses learn digital skills.  

We'll have two events in Delaware during the week of April 22nd.

Wilmington: Tuesday, April 23
Dover: Thursday, April 25

Our three events will be held in the following locations:

Wilmington:
Wilmington Institute Library
10 East 10th Street
Wilmington, DE 19801

Dover:
Dover Public Library
35 Loockerman Plaza
Dover, DE 19901 

That’s right, there is no cost to attend a Grow with Google Delaware event.

Yes, there is parking available at each event. .

Wilmington: Unfortunately, complimentary parking is unavailable for this event. There is on-street metered parking on 10th Street as well as additional public parking garages and lots throughout the downtown area.
Dover: Complimentary parking is available in the library’s parking lot. You may access the parking lot from Loockerman Plaza or King Highway SW.

You’ll want to bring something to take notes with -- a laptop (we’ll have free wifi) or a pen & paper are recommended so you don’t miss any information. Also consider bringing a light sweater or jacket just in case.

Unfortunately, this means the workshop is at capacity and we’re unable to take any additional guests for that workshop. Although it’s unlikely, if we do happen to have extra space on event day, we will create a stand-by line and admit guests on a first-come, first-served basis. We'll do our best to let you in, but it is not guaranteed. If you aren't able to pre-register for a certain workshop, we encourage you to check out our online resources at google.com/grow.
