From Limited Experience to Trusted Expert: A Journey in Digital Learning Design

This learning solutions project specialist transformed their approach to e-learning design and development with the help of the Digital Learning Institute. Here’s their story—and how you can follow in their footsteps.

As a Learning Solutions Project Specialist in the training design and delivery team of a global organization, my role involves creating internal learning solutions across all levels of the business and divisions. I lead various projects, from providing innovative learning advisory to designing digital learning content and facilitating virtual learning events.

Before completing the Associate Certificate in Instructional Design, my experience with e-learning was limited. I wanted a course that could teach me the fundamentals and help me apply best practices. That’s exactly what I found at the Digital Learning Institute (DLI).

The Associate Certificate in Instructional Design course offered the perfect blend of theory and hands-on application. Within just a few days, I gained a clear methodology for designing e-learning and learned how to develop content using Articulate 360. The sessions, led by John and Eva, were engaging, interactive, and practical, leaving me with a solid foundation to build on in my career.

Completing the course transformed my confidence in e-learning design. I can now identify what “good” looks like and provide valuable guidance to ensure our digital content delivers the best learning experience. The accreditation has also had a significant impact on my career. My skills are now formally recognized, and I’ve become a key internal partner for e-learning design and development.

For anyone looking to start their journey in instructional design, the Assocaite Certificate in Instructional Design is an excellent choice. It equips you with the skills, resources, and confidence to succeed in digital learning design and gain greater visibility in your L&D career.
