ID Bootcamp (Now the Certification Program)
Paige was looking to transition out of teaching smoothly and quickly, and she was ready to put in the effort.
Since she enjoyed creating learning experiences and helping people grow, she set her sights on instructional design. She designed a stand-out portfolio and projects to support the transition, and within weeks of bringing the site live, she landed a great instructional design role with room to grow.
“I was able to land several interviews and secure an instructional design role making a considerable amount more than my teaching salary, with a lot of room for growth.”

A Cool, Focused Portfolio Built Around Learning Solutions
Paige's minimal site features a cool color scheme and keeps the focus squarely on the effective learning solutions she designs.
She leads visitors straight into her featured projects, letting the work speak for itself, demonstrating her ability to problem-solve with instructional design, communicate effectively with visuals, and tell engaging stories that help people learn.
Apply NowScenario-Based Projects That Showcase Real Skills
Paige's flagship project invites you to navigate a difficult conversation with a parent as a teacher, a scenario-driven experience that puts learners in a real, high-stakes moment.
Her supporting project guides learners through the different types of plant-based milk, showing her range and her ability to apply instructional design thinking to varied subject matter.
“While completing my Master's degree, I decided that I no longer wanted to teach. Soon after, I discovered the instructional design community through Devlin's content. I had tried to begin building a portfolio on my own, but I found that without a structure in place, it was extremely difficult.”
“After joining the bootcamp, I fell in love with the instructional design process. Having it laid out in an easy-to-understand, self-paced format really helped me feel confident, and I was able to focus on producing the best work possible. On top of that, having the constant feedback and support from Devlin and my small group helped me grow in ways I never could have imagined beforehand.”
“After creating a portfolio website with two projects on it, I was able to land several interviews and secure an instructional design role making a considerable amount more than my teaching salary, with a lot of room for growth. I feel much more prepared to take on this role with the skills and tips that Devlin has given me along with the continued support of my Bootcamp Team.”
