Skills Builder
The Hatchery Skills Builder is a great place to start if you have a general interest in innovation or entrepreneurship, a big idea you want to explore or just want to learn skills you can apply to living, learning and succeeding in ways that matter to you.
Take a casual approach with our in-house resources, learning materials or drop-in office hours, or a more structured approach with our in-person workshops and training classes.
Past Skills Builder workshops include:
- Perfecting the Pitch with Dr. Stuart Zola
- Zero to MVP with Dr. Recha Reid
- The Art and Science of Quantifying Pain with Nascent Startups

Check Out The Hatchery’s on-demand course focused on curiosity, Exploring Innovation! Curiosity is a core innovation skill: without a sense of wonder, you are unlikely to identify problems you want to solve or to develop the skills to solve them. Understanding problems from different angles and applying solutions from one area of life to another leads to new insights and novel solutions.
Discover the power of innovation in all aspects of your life with our self-paced, online course designed to explore entrepreneurship as a life hack. "What Kind of Innovator are You?" goes beyond traditional definitions, helping you explore the diverse world of innovation through engaging case studies and practical applications.
