What a wonderful community of learning… What a wonderful community of learning Dr. Robin Sargent has created through the IDOL Academy. I've not only improved my skills as an Instructional Designer, but I've also benefited from the wisdom, experience, and assistance of many excellent colleagues. I can't recommend IDOL courses and being a part of this community highly enough.

I love IDOL courses IDOL courses gave me the technical insight and iterative practice needed to become confident in my craft. This, paired with the Do It Messy approach helps to get over the obsession with learning in lieu of progress.

IDOL Courses has given me direction and… IDOL Courses has given me direction and confidence to progress in my career in Digital Learning. I am glad I took the decision to enroll in the IDOL course. Special thanks to mentors, coaches, and IDOL community members who helped me gain hone my IDOL skills with their valuable feedback and constant support.

I finally completed my MVP portfolio I finally completed my MVP portfolio. The hardest part was devoting the much needed time to create all the detailed assets and graphics. I got stuck on the simple things at first (ie: font/color pallet/ overall design) and the fear of doing something totally new. I had a really long pause between when i actually enrolled to the completion of my first badge (LIFE). But I am glad that I am being resilient and not giving up!

Best decision I've made This is the best decision I made for myself, my family, and my career. I knew I wanted to move into Instructional Design, but I needed direction and help. The access to coaches and mentors and material is not only easy to follow but applicable to the real world of ID and is what was so invaluable. The networking I've been able to do over the past 8 weeks, the portfolio I've created, and the confidence I've gained will only allow me to keep working towards my goals, and I've no doubt I'll reach them.
