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.

IDOL: Supportive and Informative I loved the community, the support, and the plethora of PD available to refer back to as much as needed. I found areas I felt drawn to and really dug in there first. I loved the options to get my work reviewed in multiple settings, and I loved learning how to review others (and knew my craft was sharpening in my ability to do so)

It's not just a course, it's a community! IDOL Academy is a fantastic place to learn and grow your skills as an instructional designer. I started the course as a teacher and soon after landed my first job as an instructional designer! The support from Dr. Robin Sargent, the mentors, and the rest of the community is unmatched! This course differs from others like it in that it you work at your own pace, and you have lifetime access! It has every topic you could need, taught by a plethora of fantastic experts, from optimizing your Linkedin profile and resume to creating a portfolio, working as a freelancer, and everything in between.

This program is so engaging. I began this course last year, and I love it. The experience continues to push me to learn and grow. It has taught me so much. I am completing a doctorate in Instructional design, allowing me to demonstrate so many skills I would not have known. I can show my expertise through understanding and using the tools needed to freelance. I love that I can join the cohort as many times as I want with the available community to all members. The program has exceeded all my expectations.

This is what I needed This is what I needed, the way I need it. Organized but not rigid; friendly and empathetic, while all about realistic business results. Some of the training is very formal and demanding, and some is social and fun...in two weeks, I've moved past the "overwhelming" phase and am able to make judgments about what to learn next.
