Every few months i get charged twice Other than that it is great

I m currently doing the auto-cad course and it can get super complicated and it would be nice if we could of choose the type of drawings to do Like there are options for floor plans elevation plans rather than detail of a wheel or engineering drilling pipe and stuff I won t need

Content was great online challenge The online set-up has you jumping through different pages for each issue then when you perform you work you have to jump back through them all if you don t readily recall the answer to try to find it It greatly extended the time necessary to complete the projects for me They did update online to make it better but I still finally had to buy the books to more easily finish up and reference back to the content

The material has contradictions that if you follow it you get deductions on your grade There are typos and occasionally the material doesn t match what is shown on a picture Getting different instructors to review projects is inconsistent

My experience was OK I wish there were an easier way to submit projects I lost my momentum waiting for stuff to come back Also I found that some of the instructors seemed to give different or confusing feedback It s not quite accurate to say they contradicted each other but it was sort of in that vein sometimes Additionally I found some of the feedback to be a little basic - for example in my bedroom design I had included larger round tables flanking my bed because I wanted something a little different - the instructor said I needed to put traditional nightstands in because of storage My gut reaction to that is that the feedback is not very inspired I decided if they want basic I ll send them basic just to get a better grade Probably not the message you want students getting To be fair this instructor also gave me very relevant feedback on other aspects of the same project that I missed which is important to note Also it s not clear that I can actually call myself an interior designer as a result of completing this course since this certification isn t recognized by ASID and doesn t qualify me to sit for the NCIDQ exam So that s disappointing Overall it was helpful to get a taste of interior design but shouldn t be presented as giving you the qualifications to officially enter the world of interior design A graduate of this course can call themselves a decorator to be sure but that s not the same thing

I know this is online but this is basically this is a self taught course Very little interaction with instructor which is disappointing Curriculum is good and highly relevant

Too hard to connect for help Test vs project not balanced Info is good but far too involved for introductory Hope to complete the course but not sure if time will permit Too many units in each chapter

I m glad that I took this course I ve been working in the field for several years and needed to know some details like how to measure a room etc However I will say that the videos that teach you are quite outdated I live in the South and I have to say that NO ONE here decorates with heavy ornate antiques and old school oversized furniture anymore With that being said I took it with a grain of salt and did my best to perform using those guidelines I do wish that it would have been a little more modern and helpful for today s decorators Also my professor was 75 years old and she reviewed activity that I did from her old school mentality She would frequently send my assignments back to me to re-do when honestly there was no point She retired midway through my journey and the new professor that was assigned to me was superb She understood the process and was very forgiving on the little errors instead of making you re-do the entire project It took me 18 months to complete because the turn around time on projects being graded was 3-4 weeks It was frustrating when trying to finish on a personal goal of 12 months You get what you pay for All in all I m glad that I did it

Without a defined time table to keep to it s easy to put things off for too long Find the comments difficult to understand - it s not always clear what s expected

I love the course content however I still have issues with how project assignments are submitted Very complicated for someone who knows just the basics in computers
