The project writeup showcases her ability to center the learner, emphasizing the audience's needs and the real-world relevance of the content she created.
“Before joining the bootcamp, I had been teaching elementary for seven years. I was struggling financially, mentally, and physically. The unrealistic expectations, lack of work-life balance, low pay, student behavior, and no opportunities for career growth pushed me toward a career change.”
“When I joined the bootcamp, I knew very little about corporate instructional design. However, Devlin himself, the bootcamp pros, and the bootcamp community helped me gain the necessary skills to break into the field. My visual design, eLearning development, and instructional design skills improved greatly. Once I created my flagship projects, put my portfolio together, and rewrote my resume, I felt confident to start applying for jobs.”
“Ultimately, I landed three job offers because of my portfolio and the skills I learned in the bootcamp. I chose the company that aligned the best with my values and beliefs. Joining the bootcamp was the best decision I have ever made!”
