I just started with this course; I was almost overwhelmed from the introduction but after Module 2, I’m confident I’d be ready to take up editing tasks soon.

Read MoreThank you, Susan, for creating a comprehensive course on screencast and podcast editing with Camtasia and Audacity! The pace of the course was perfect. I was able to finish it in about a week (and that's with stopping to do the action steps of the video and audio work as well). Everything was covered, and my questions answered in the videos. I'm off to a great start with practicing and working toward offering it as a service.
