Here's what Week 3 of the course looks like in practice.
“The Wednesday drop-ins were honestly the most valuable part. I could share my screen and my instructor would just tell me exactly what was not working.”
Your instructor knows your name. Your work gets real attention, not generic feedback from a forum.
One live session per week. Ask questions, get unstuck in real time, stay accountable.
Work on a real brief from a real client. Graduate with a case study that proves you can do the job.
See 26 real client case studies →Each module maps to a real deliverable. By week 8 you have worked through the full process on a live client brief.
