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)

IDOL courses Academy - Where to Start your Journey IDOL courses Academy is a great way for those interested in Instructional Design to learn about the craft and what goes into the job. The coaches and mentors are helpful and are there to guide you every step of the way!

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!

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 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.
