This entire academy is amazing and I… This entire academy is amazing and I cannot recommend it enough! I have learned so much in a short period of time. I've been able to create a functioning portfolio and learning assets. The Storyline course gave me the confidence to jump into Articulate Storyline with zero experience.

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.

Some questions were confusing Some questions were confusing; especially the options given for ADDIE. I think that the options need to be clearly expressed concerning the tasks done during each of the phases. This would make it more meaningful. It would also be helpful if the answers to the questions were explained once the responses are submitted.

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)

Exactly what I needed! IDOLCourses Academy is exactly what I needed to quickly learn essential skills and resources for instructional design success. Dr. Robin, coach Cindy, and mentors Chris, Mandy, CJ and Tracy were amazing! The learning curve was steep but the support kept me on track and I was able to reach my goal of obtaining the eLearning Developer badge in 8 weeks. I look forward to continuing my IDOLCourses Academy journey and growing my knowledge and skills in instructional design.
