According to the dictionary, creativity is "the use of the imagination or original ideas, especially in the production of an artistic work." We also know that "creativity" is more than just an artistic expression but also, a way to recognize ideas that can help in solving problems.
Can creativity be taught? For sure! Even if you think you are the most creative person, creativity can be taught and be extremely useful not only for your work but, for your personal life.
To help you out, we have selected 5 online courses to spark your creativity this year. Here are them:
“You don’t find your style, your style finds you.” Discouraged by the words of his art professor, Andy J. Pizza spent years following trends and feeling inauthentic in his art, waiting for his style to show up. Spoiler: it never did.

Wouldn’t it be wonderful to always have plenty of new ideas bubbling up on the inside of you? Wouldn’t it be wonderful to never run out of creative gas? Wouldn’t it be amazing if you could be in charge of the flow of your creative juices?
Guess what – that actually is within your reach! You can train yourself to make that happen. You do not need to be a victim of creative blocks. You have the ability to break out of those. Or even better, you can prevent them from happening.
Creativity is an essential skill for the 21st Century that is innate in all people and can be nurtured. We constantly need new and better ideas for almost every aspect of our professional and personal lives. The goal of this course is to help you recognize, develop and act upon the creativity that you already possess. We will accomplish this using three methods: b aware, b inspired, and b creative.
You will learn to ignite and unleash the power of new ideas and your creative thinking to make more money, innovate in an industry, job or field, or reinvent yourself professionally into someone new.
This course from the School of Education at the University of Sheffield will encourage you to think differently about play.
We’ll discuss definitions of play and current debates about how the nature of play changes. Does play help us to learn? Can it prepare young people to be successful in the adult world? Are all forms of play good for us? You will learn to ignite and unleash the power of new ideas and your creative thinking to make more money, innovate in an industry, job or field, or reinvent yourself professionally into someone new.
