SAN FRANCISCO, June 25, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- CodeSignal, a leading skills assessment and experiential learning platform, today announces the latest additions to its Experts Series, which brings the insights of acclaimed educators, cutting-edge researchers, and visionary industry voices to life through interactive, hands-on courses.

Dr. Barbara Oakley and Andrew Maynard, two of the most influential voices in cognitive science and future thinking, have selected CodeSignal as their platform of choice to turn their research and ideas into immersive learning experiences. The two new learning paths, Learning How to Learn with Barbara Oakley and Future Rising at Work with Andrew Maynard, bring their research to life through interactive training that helps individuals build essential cognitive and leadership skills.

Based on the world-renowned book and course that has reached over 4 million learners globally, Learning How to Learn with Barbara Oakley introduces the neuroscience behind effective learning—and turns it into a skill you can practice.

Future Rising at Work with Andrew Maynard, inspired by Maynard's acclaimed book Future Rising, equips professionals with tools to navigate uncertainty, anticipate change, and lead with clarity. Through practical foresight exercises and strategic simulations, learners build skills to stay flexible and guide their teams and organizations through challenges.

"In today's rapidly evolving world, success depends on more than technical skills—it requires adaptability, strategic thinking, and continuous learning," says Tigran Sloyan, CEO & Co-Founder of CodeSignal. "We've taken proven strategies from Dr. Barbara Oakley and Andrew Maynard and turned them into hands-on, practical experiences that help people build the skills they need to grow their careers and thrive in a changing world."
