University Orientation

Excellent introduction and and information provided

Great start ! I feel more confident now!

Excellent overview of all the course descriptions.

Orientation is very thorough and to the point, very well explained.

It's definitely worth doing the orientation. It gives you a good idea of how the courses are laid out, about tracks, and other useful information!

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

Provide clear direction to start our learning journey.

It was great, taught me a lot of what to look forward to. Got me very excited and full of energy and full of hope for the future to come for me.

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.

After completing this FreeU Orientation, I feel like I have a good grasp of the resources available to me, including where and how to find them again whenever I need them in the future. The downloadable checklists and guides will make it easy for me to get orgaznized and to take full advantage of all the knowledge and activities here. This is also a great example of course onboarding to follow if I ever need to build a course for clients in the future. Seems like you thought of everything--thanks!

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 :-)

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!

Terrific Orientation! Love the passion heard and shown by everyone! Truly excited about starting the courses, finding my bent, and succeeding! Thanks so much for the hard work and determination to design and develop such a wonderful resource for all of us! On to the learning.....

I appreciate this overview, which gives a good roadmap of where to start. There are some things we want to do "in order". Once the foundational content is in our toolbelts, we are free to embellish our niche-related knowledge-base using those basic tools along with those more specific. #ExcitedToGetSarted

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.

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.

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.

Very good - thought-provoking

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.

There seemed to be a lot of repetition, but this helps with reviewing the many topics and courses available.

Very thorough how to!!

Well written and easy to understand

The text was very clear and easy to read

Awesome.

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

I am a list-oriented person, so the checklist was the perfect way to start my navigation at FreeU! The orientation is very well laid out and takes all the guess work out of where to go, or where to start even!

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.

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!

Great course to start! Now I have a full overview of what to expect and detailed instructions about everything. Amazing job!

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.

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.

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

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

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???

Flow of info is intuitive and complete.

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

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.

I found this a very easy way to learn the ropes. The University will be easier for me since I have gone over each of the items. I have this downloaded on my phone so while I'm working o a class i will have it at my fingertips if i need a quick reference.

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.

Thank you for such a comprehensive orientation that left me more than eager to start!

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

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

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

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

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.

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.

Hi, just finished the University Orientation - it gave me a great sense of what to expect being a student of FreeU. I loved the personal experiences that were generously shared, and feel motivated to jump in! Louise (from Australia)

I went through the orientation again and found it useful to go through the entire presentation. Everything is explained so well. thanks!

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

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.

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

Excellent program. I glided seamlessly through it.

A great intro into Freelance University!

Seems like the info will be useful throughout the courses

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

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

excellent layout with user experience at every step

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!!

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.

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

A great quick introduction to the Freelance U site.

Always something new in this, I do them every semester and I am starting my second year. Great info on FreeU's setup!

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.

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

As a previous FreeU member, I needed to find out what's new in courses, how the platform now works, and how I can best optimize my FreeU experience. This course covers all that and more!

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.

Text is great.

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.

The orientation was very informative and easy to follow

Motivational and inspiring!

Great overview of the FreelanceU!

Great overview of the Freelance U program

I am blown away by the amount of value that is offered by Free U! I have spent thousands of dollars on other courses that just didn't seem to be a good fit. I am so excited to finally have the resources and a community of supportive people to help me pursue my dream of being a successful business owner.

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

¡Fine!

....Then I can't wait to see what the Freelance University classes are like! The orientation was well thought out and informative. It was also unexpected. I thought it would be like logging in and choosing training modules randomly, but this program is so much more than that! Can't wait to get started. Thank you!

Interesting and value
