“The instructor support was absolutely excellent! Not only were they always prompt to help, but they were just very supportive! I always felt like they really cared about how I was doing, not only with my work, but just generally, you know? ... [After graduation] I started my own, small freelance business. I've done everything from Architectural Renderings to Logo Design, and I've even created some VRML models that have been used as evidence in court cases. I'm able to set my own hours. Aside from the technical skills I learned [at CD-ED], the time management skills have been indispensable.”
- Shawn Crowle, CD-ED Graduate
“I had actually started taking on some simple jobs to get a head start on my portfolio... Now that I’ve graduated I’m working freelance full time and have been taking on some more serious jobs... I can honestly say that so far, every freelance design project I’ve taken on, I’ve referenced back to lessons and notes. I point blank love my job... I get to get up in the morning, have a nice relaxing breakfast with my son, grab a coffee and I head to my home office... and I get to spend my work day doing what I’m passionate about...”
- Carey Beers, CD-ED Graduate
“With CD-ED I got my solution. I was able to do the work on my time, around my work schedule, AND I didn't have to wait long periods for someone to teach something that I understood right away, because when I understood it I moved on to the next topic... I had to work. First it was only part-time, and then more recently full-time [after getting hired at a web design firm], so I did the majority of my work at night and on weekends. I made sure that when I got home from work, I ate and then settled into 'work-mode'. It was definitely hard, and took a lot of sacrifices, but SO worth it!”
