IDOL Courses is a great place to begin if you're thinking about transitioning to Instructional Design. Everything you need to get started is right there at your fingertips, AND you have lifetime access to it. It has been such a rewarding experience. I have learned so much, and I feel very ready to apply to jobs and move into the next phase of my career.

I joined IDOL academy because it was highly rated by many in the instructional design groups I follow. The price was more reasonable than most of the other academies I considered joining, and the program seemed much more well-developed. I also took a look at the portfolios of some of their graduates and was impressed. The variety in the style and energy of portfolios was very interesting to me. After participating in the program, I can say it was well worth my time (and money), because it gave me the jump start I needed to put together my own portfolio, update my resume and LinkedIn profile, and feel confident in my new skills. I especially liked the constant feedback I received from mentors, coaches and other academy members, and the community that was built. I also like the fact that I am a lifetime member. Most people transitioning to a new profession can not spent 40 hours a week working on the transition. So the idea of "never being behind" in the program was very comforting. They have incentives and prizes and contests to keep pushing you along, but no punishments for taking longer than others to work your way through the learning. I will undoubtedly come back to the academy often to upskill and engage with other instructional designers, as there is so much more learning available than I could take advantage of during my 8 week cohort.

I can't even begin to tell you how much IDOL courses have changed my life. The Academy is amazing, and the support is unmatched!

Great place to learn about Instructional Design.

The collection of resources found in IDOL is amazing. There's so much at your fingertips it's almost overwhelming...but in a good way.

This is the best decision I made for myself, my family, and my career. I knew I wanted to move into Instructional Design, but I needed direction and help. The access to coaches and mentors and material is not only easy to follow but applicable to the real world of ID and is what was so invaluable. The networking I've been able to do over the past 8 weeks, the portfolio I've created, and the confidence I've gained will only allow me to keep working towards my goals, and I've no doubt I'll reach them.

Great experience overall.

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.
