GBCohort 10 Review Over the past 8 weeks I have learned a lot about Instructional Design. Dr. Robin Sargent and her group of mentors and coaches are wonderful and very informative. The fact that you are never "behind" is a positive thing for me because I did struggle with completing tasks as the school year for me was coming to a close. I am still able to create and submit items and am now getting closer to my goal. Having lifetime access is definitely a win for me and I look forward to my continued learning with IDOL Courses Academy.

GBWhat 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.

GBIDOL Courses Academy is the best! IDOL Courses Academy is the best! This was EXACTLY the practical training that I needed to transition from a Consultant to an ID. The mentor sessions and coach feedback are impactful. The course library is in-depth and has everything you could possibly need to become an ID with no previous training. I am so grateful to IDOL for helping me make the transition. Having a community of people to reach out to for support and education has been key to my success. Thank you Dr. Robin!

GBIDOL is an incredible academy to learn… IDOL is an incredible academy to learn instructional design skills. There is absolutely no way I could have accomplished as much as I have the past 7 weeks on my own. The community is the best part about the course. The feedback and support from fellow cohort members as well as the guidance and leadership from coaches and mentors makes the course worth every penny. The reason why I would not rate the academy a 5/5 is because I do believe the course could be improved in several ways. Some of the lessons are include too much information that is not broken down enough for beginners. It is also difficult to locate materials at times. The course has undergone changes recently that have made it better, but the videos do not always reflect those changes. For example, it is not uncommon for the instructions or videos to refer to course materials that are no longer available or in use in the academy. This makes meeting expectations difficult. Overall, I would highly recommend this course.
