About

Udacity was founded in 2011 by Stanford AI researchers Sebastian Thrun and Peter Norvig after their landmark online AI course attracted 160,000 students. The company pioneered the 'Nanodegree' format — short, project-based programs in programming, data science, AI, cloud computing, and digital marketing — designed to make job-ready technical skills globally accessible. Udacity has served over 21 million learners across 190+ countries. In May 2024, Accenture completed its acquisition of Udacity, integrating it into Accenture LearnVantage, a $1B initiative to build AI-era workforce training capabilities for enterprise clients. Udacity continues to operate as a standalone brand offering Nanodegree programs and corporate training solutions.
