Aruna and Gautham teach you in a quick format on key aspects of engaging online course design. Excellent combination of theoretical input and applying the knowledge yourself. I designed a micro lesson according to backward design theme incl. learner outcomes and got valuable feedback on how to improve. Highly recommend taking this course!

This course empowered me to take my own CBC to the next level with tons of easy to apply knowledge. It is fast-paced and intimidating at first, but forces you to get ideas down on paper so you can start building your options, which I appreciated. Peer feedback and 1:2 with Aruna and Gautham were very helpful. I highly recommend this course!

My company is interested in offering CBCs so I attended this course hoping to understand the process to design one, and also learn best practices of running it. I learned both of these in a very short amount of time - Gautham and Aruna are amazing instructors and they have packed a wealth of knowledge into this course. Highly recommend it!

Overall the course was a great experience. The level of demand and pace of the classes was just right for a first-time CBC course creator. Both Aruna and Gautham were very involved in my personal learning. The office hours, their personal follow-up and feedback on the workbook were very useful. I now feel more confident about running my own course.
