Craig Cannings
Chief Learning Officer, Freelance University
In 2008, my wife Kelly and I co-founded Freelance University with the purpose of becoming the #1 go-to training center for Freelancers and VAs from around the globe! As of this year, we have successfully trained over 25,000 Virtual Assistants and Freelancers in more than 75 countries. Kelly and I have had the great privilege of building our Online University while raising our 5 daughters who are the greatest blessings of our lives. I look forward to meeting you and seeing you either in this program or at our University very soon. I leave you with my favorite quote from marketing guru, Seth Godin: "The only worse thing than starting something and failing... is not starting something."

Read MoreCraig puts out a ton of well-thought out, easy to apply information. The course is jammed packed with useful information that I will use over and over again, but wasn't so overwhelming that it discouraged me. I know I will be referring back to my notes, handouts, and probably the course itself time and time again!

Read MoreThanks, Craig for a wonderful walk-through of all the options, ideas, and tech used in digital content management. I've been doing this for years and still managed to learn a few new things. :) I especially like the lists of all the tasks. So many people don't really understand what all content management entails and you did a thorough job explaining. This is definitely one the better courses I have taken. Kudos to you and the team!
