We appreciate your review and love the IDOL community as well!
The IDOL Academy is comprehensive, supportive, and useful. The content is thorough. I have learned skills and behaviors to apply in my ID job search, and there are many more topics that I can continue to learn about. The iterative process of learn, attend live webinars and mentor sessions, share with peers, implement peer feedback, share with professionals and implement that feedback is so useful. I felt supported and seen the entire time.

Absolutely! We are so glad that you continue to find value in IDOL courses. Thank your for sharing.
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!

That is wonderful. We are so glad that you stayed persistent and did not give up! Thank you for sharing.
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!
