University Orientation

The Freelance University Orientation offered clear step-by-step instructions on how to have the best experience using the platform and getting ready to start and build your business. One of the best platforms for people over 50 starting new businesses.

Helped me focus on what I have and what I need to work on.

This is a great overview of the whole FREE U world with lots of resources and easy to understand information and suggestions.

Awesome.

Great start ! I feel more confident now!

Outlined and layed out in a very flowing manner, with clear course descriptions and easy to follow instructions.

Easy to read and understand.

Provide clear direction to start our learning journey.

The Orientation gave a good intro to FreeU and the Semester planner is valuable to a newcomer like me.

Motivational and inspiring!

Excellent overview of all the course descriptions.

I found it helpful to listen and explore at the same time. Craig calls out specific features that (discounts, past events etc) I would have missed otherwise. The orientation shows the content is organized well and gives confidence about the quality of the overall offering. Looking forward to learning more!!

The information was very clear and easy to understand and I'm looking forward to going through the courses

A great quick introduction to the Freelance U site.

Thank you Kelly and Craig! Freelance University is so robust with so many classrooms, workshops, and webinars that it's hard to know where to begin. Your Orientation was the perfect solution! Thank you!

Very good - thought-provoking

I am grateful to be part of this community.

Thank you for the warm welcome! Loved the checklist and semester planner. Nailing down a pathway is going to be difficult especially when you offer everything I want to learn. Can’t wait to get started.

The text was very clear and easy to read

I thought that this was brilliant. It is a step-by-step guided process. Easy to follow, logical and with great pdf documents to download and use so that you are never lost.

This was such a good snapshot of what FreeU offers, and has given me a clear starting point for my learning.

It was a simple yet well thought out onboarding process with only one or two little glitches (terms introduced without being properly defined prior to their into). Otherwise, it was structured, easy to understand, made you think and allowed you to be honest about where you are and help develop your goals and determine where you want to be.

If only the FreeU team could clone and take over Microsoft! Microsoft - as we all know - is at the other end of the User Friendliness spectrum. Why would anyone use Microsoft Teams instead of Zoom???

Excellent starting point. Good to have the introductory reference materials all laid out (the guide, catalog, planner and training tracks). This gives me a good start. Thank you.

I thought the orientation was a great start to the courses. I am now looking forward to learning the skills necessary to get my business going in the right direction and build off of a solid foundation. Thank you.

I am thrilled and overwhelmed at everything that can be learned as a skillset, along with freelancing acumen; but the material also brings me confidence I made the right choice in starting my freelance journey here.

Im so excited to get started with Freelance University. The orientation module will help you plan out a clear path.

This is what I have been waiting for. Bite size pieces to work on and something affordable. I am so thankful.

Very informative

This was a great Orientation/Welcome to the University course! It helped me see this from the perspective of attending a formal college program. I LOVE ❤️ the Semester Planner, it’s truly a hit!!! It’s a great 30ft view of all the available pathways within the University.

excellent layout with user experience at every step

Amazingly comprehensive. Apparently difficult (for me) to narrow the scope. I'll need to go back through it several times.

Excellent introduction and and information provided

If printing in color, I would prefer a darker font. Not all of us have young eyes :-)

Helpful introduction to site navigation as well as the plethora of available resources. Excited to start!

Interesting and value

Thorough, Informative, User-Friendly, and Extremely Well Organized!!

This was an excellent welcome process. It followed a very succinct flow that made sense. Really looking forward to diving into this material.

Very thorough information on how to navigate through the system and the courses!

Before I decided to enroll, I downloaded your course catalog yesterday and printed it out. The course catalog had everything I have been looking for since I left my career 5 years ago, and it sold me on joining. The orientation is very thorough. No nonsense, just straight up what I need to know and do to get to the goal. Check lists and directions are clear, and easy to follow. Thank you.

It gives you a great overview of the university and what it offers

Very well thought out. There was a smooth feel about it, a natural progression.

Well understood, love how everything is broken down

Well laid out and easy to follow. I like the fact that once you complete courses you can actually advertise through the school's directory.

It is a good summary of what the university is like. I do like that all the guides are printable, because I am sure that I will be referring back to them often. I look forward to exploring and learning all the school has to offer.

Orientation was quick, easy to follow, and very informative.

Very thorough how to!!

Wow...how online learning has come a long way from a few years ago when I was trying to market online CE courses in the dental world! Excited to learn new skills, bring up to date my existing skills and expand my consulting / freelance business.

I have been a member before but never watched this introduction. This time I am so glad I did, there is so much more to Free U than I realised or utilised before. Great tutorial Craig :-)

Beautifully written in an easy-to-understand and natural way.

Text is also great. I don't see anything I don't like yet! :)

The orientation was a great overview of what I can expect as I begin my journey. Good information but not overwhelming. i am eager to get started!

Seems like the info will be useful throughout the courses

Have not had a chance to read all materials but they seem to be laid out logically and in order and hence very easy to follow.

The text is clear and thorough, very reassuring. You complete the course feeling duly oriented, which is what it means to do.

I found the orientation to be be useful. I like the way that the steps are provided along with explanations and visuals to get off to a good start right from the beginning.

Flow of info is intuitive and complete.

Love the Orientation track. Information was very informative.

This orientation was helpful and thorough - screen shots help you so you really can't get "lost" and the directions are clear. Thank you!

There is a lot to learn for this course especially for those people whose computer and technical skills are limited but at the same time, it is a challenge and efforts should be made to improve one's skills.

Well written and easy to understand

There is a lot of great information in the orientation that has made me even more excited to get started on this learning journey. I'm ready to get my mind around some of this material and make myself more marketable in the VA business.
