My first experience with eLearning came while working at a pharmaceutical company in Ireland. I was tasked with helping launch a new LMS for 500 employees and creating eLearning modules using Articulate Storyline. With no prior experience, I found the process daunting—but that’s when I discovered the Digital Learning Institute (DLI).

Why I Chose the Digital Learning Institute

The Associate Certificate in Instructional Design was exactly what I needed. It covered essential theories, practical tools, and best practices. The hands-on approach helped me understand how to design interactive, user-friendly content and gave me a clear process to follow—from design to evaluation.

The course wasn’t just about technical skills; the supportive environment and interactive sessions made it a truly engaging experience.

Building Confidence and Career Success

After completing the course, I felt confident creating effective eLearning content that met the needs of my organization. The experience was so impactful that I later completed the Professional Diploma in Digital Learning Design, which helped me refine and expand my skills even further.

My Advice for Aspiring Learning Designers

The Digital Learning Institute courses are a fantastic way to build your skills and confidence in eLearning. Whether you’re new to the field or looking to advance, DLI provides the tools and support you need to succeed.
