My experience was amazing. I learned so much and got to ask questions about the tasks ,career,and interview process. I was able to land a job in the feild utilizing my new skills.

The data analytics course gave me everything I was looking for. Cleaning, explaining and presenting data. I am confident I can answer questions, make decisions and influence others with data. Jana is a great instructor, very patient and gives lots of real world examples. I hope she teaches an advanced class. Thanks, Colleen

I liked the fact Manish brought in outside speakers and let us ask questions of them. Really good coverage of product management. For me (old) I didn't need the career info part of the course. A lot of people seemed interested in how to get a job as a PM though. Also liked the idea of group projects but my group all dropped out by the 5th lesson. That had + and - for me. Overall, a really good experience.

This course was easy to follow along and participate in with all the tools provided by elvtr. The elvtr staff was attentive to questions and needs of the students which I believe allowed the instructor to focus on course topic related questions. This was a big class but I still felt seen throughout the course which is important on a virtual platform. A good experience that I would recommend to others. Thank you!

Extremely detailed and well organized course. Highly recommended.

Andy's use of real world experience really made the class feel like it was preparing me for a career in video game production, rather than just a hobby.

Overall excellent experience. Andy is a super engaging and personable teacher. He put together a really well-rounded curriculum that allowed him to share his expertise with us in a very comprehensive and hands-on manner. Another plus is that the tools we use in the course really help to build a community amongst the students. I made some awesome connections! I highly recommend this course to anyone interested in game production!

Andy is fantastic and I learned a lot in the course! The value of the course is pretty expensive, and I have more wants regarding that. First of all, lifetime access should be given for updates in the information provided, at the very least access to the slideshows in case there are updates for that. This isn't a credited course, so there isn't a benefit to redoing the full course if you already have the certificate, but it's a relatively new course that will be refined. People who have already done it should have access to the improvements in order to properly compete with other online courses. The certificate itself is a bit lacking in appearance, and should at the least have a signature on it. Probably from Andy to verify that he approves it and taught it. Also a little bit of knowledge on what is entailed in the course on the cerificate would be an asset since most employers viewing this have no idea what the course is about as well. Like key points stuff, like "this certificate shows that this person learned how to plan a roadmap, adjust to critical decision making," etc. Also due to how expensive the course is, having a possibility of failure if you don't do well in it and not having any way to make that up and not be able to receive the certificate as well is very punishing and goes against the ideal of Andy's course that is to have a safe space in order for students to make mistakes in a safe environment. It makes the course more punishing for people brand new to the industry and it's unfair to them when they're investing in their future through ELVTR. Please find some work-around to this, such as being able to have extra credit assignments or being able to re-do assignments to up the grade. For the positive side, communication with ELVTR and Andy was very easy. The introductory stuff on how to use google classroom was effective and the slideshows were very clean. I very much appreciated being able to have recordings of the classes to review as well. It's a well-structured course. I just expected more from an online course an I believe that ELVTR has the ability to improve in terms of value for investment and fairness. If it had this, I would be much more likely to enroll in future ELVTR courses and recommend them to others. I currently don't want to recommend a course that might take over $1000 from you (esp due to the exchange rate whereas I'm Canadian) and have a possibility of giving you no certificate for your investment.
