University Orientation

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 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.

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!

The orientation was very informative and easy to follow

Excellent program. I glided seamlessly through it.

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 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 :-)

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.

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.

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.

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!!

Great start ! I feel more confident now!

Awesome.

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.

....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!

I enjoyed the overview of Free U. I thought it was well thought out and detailed.

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 loved the University Orientation introduction course! It's very well detailed of what's to come and what to expect when you complete your courses! For someone like myself who loves learning I'm so excited to see what's to come and the exciting learning courses!

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

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.

Excellent overview of all the course descriptions.

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

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

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.

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 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 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.

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

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

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

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

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

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.

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.

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!

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

Very informative

A great quick introduction to the Freelance U site.

I am grateful to be part of this community.

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

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.

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

excellent layout with user experience at every step

Interesting and value

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

Very thorough how to!!

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!
