"Enrolling in the IDCDT course with Creative Agni was one of the best professional decisions I’ve made. This intensive program takes you on a transformative journey, equipping you with everything you need to thrive in the field of Instructional Design.

Shafali’s masterful facilitation elevates the entire learning experience. Her real-world examples, compelling analogies, and engaging storytelling make complex concepts memorable and relatable.

The live project and interview sessions were game-changers that armed me with both the confidence and the practical skills needed to excel in the industry.

If you're serious about building a successful career in Instructional Design, your search ends here.

Thank you, Shafali!"

"I enrolled in IDCDT course which ended up being a life-transitioning experience for me. During this course, I encountered both my strongest and most vulnerable selves. Besides learning Instructional Design principles and their application, I also learnt the principles of living the best life. This course provided me confidence and self assurance to solve problems by looking within. I believe Internet has altered our mental algorithm in the way as we want someone to spoon-feed us; however, the life question papers are different for all. This course taught me that it’s imperative to become independent to solve our problems, be they are professional or personal. Undoubtedly, this course has definitely been quite the roller coaster for me, but every struggle has been worthwhile.

In my opinion, Creative Agni is a theraputic institution that bridges the gap between modern learning and old-school principles. I feel fortunate to be a part of this esteemed organization by enrolling in their course. Lastly, I am grateful to find my mentor in Shafali, she is not only the best instructor but also the most enlightened and positive mentor I have ever met."

"The IDCDT course has proven to be one of the most intense and memorable experiences of my life. I want to thank my mentor, Shafali, for allowing me to be a part of this journey. One of the most important things that she instilled in me and gave ample opportunities to practice was to be creative without worrying about mistakes, failures, and ridicule. This keeps echoing inside me from time to time.

In order to understand assignments, and prepare for surprise quizzes, and announced quizzes and tests, I have revised everything that Shafali has taught, so many times, that I can easily visualise the pages of my register on which various notes are written. That is the level of recall I have for the concepts she taught.

I consider myself a slow learner, so I felt a little lost when the course ended. I was not sure how I would fare at continuing the process of learning on my own. Would things still make sense when Shafali was not there to introduce and explain them? As I started to read books and articles on ID, I realised that everything made sense now. I was not an outsider to the field of ID anymore. In just 2.5 months, Shafali has laid a solid foundation. What she taught and the way she taught it--everything involved ID.

Thank you for everything, Shafali!"

"The course has been incredibly beneficial, thanks to Shafali’s exceptional focus on practical learning. We thoroughly covered all the theories and models of instructional design, which was instrumental in our understanding. The mentor's consistent motivation throughout the course was the perfect amount to keep us engaged and inspired. Anyone who wants to learn instructional design Creative Agni is the go to place."

" The IDCDT course was a great learning experience. Anyone who wishes to carve a niche for oneself in the area of Instructional Designing should mandatorily take this course. The step by step process, the detailed topics, the weekly assignments each and every thing about this course was worth the effort. I’d like to especially highlight the assignments that we were given every week were so effective that I believe because of those assignments every topic that was covered got so deeply ingrained in us. Also most importantly the dedication and commitment with which Shafali trained us was unparalleled. She ensured that we took this course seriously and were able to successfully complete it under her able guidance.

Thanks a ton Creative Agni for conducting this course. "

" Dear Shafali, It is a pleasure to know you and learn Instructional Design from you. On a personal front, I have never been inspired by anyone so much till date, my experience through out this course was very enriching in terms of knowledge and understanding about the e-learning industry. Thank you for making Instructional Design so interesting, exciting and competitive all through out and motivating continuously to bring out the creative side of me as an Instructional Designer. "

" I was looking for a course in Instructional Design; my colleague suggested that I should connect with Creative Agni. After enquiry, I decided to join IDST course. The unique part of this course was that it helped me apply ID principles & models in the shortest period of time at my work place.

The IDST program has provided me with the necessary skill sets; it was a perfect mix of knowledge & application. This course provided me with a personalized learning & all credit goes to Shafali. She is an excellent mentor & always provides exceptional support to every learner (not only as a mentor, but as a friend too.)

Thank you so much Shafali for such an amazing experience. "

" First and foremost, I would like to thank Shafali for not just creating this exemplary program but also delivering it passionately.

Even after working as an ID for two years and exploring the world of ID, I was still not confident enough about the subject. When I searched around the internet for articles and tutorials about Instructional Design, I found lots of explanations of what, why, and how it works. However, nothing specifically about how to do it and what it means in the real world.

A friend recommended I take the IDCDT course, warning that it would be difficult and it was. Besides the theoretical aspects of ID, this course offers its practical application as well. It's not just about getting a certification; it's about becoming an excellent instructional designer. As a result, I can say with confidence that I have become one, or at least, I am on that path. 

I can go on and on about this course but to rest, it was a beautiful roller coaster ride for me. A ride that was safe for me to independently explore and improve by constructive feedback.

Thanks a lot, Shafali for patiently guiding me not just to become a competent Instructional Designer, but to become much more than that. "

" The IDST program was a great learning experience for me. These 8 weeks of learning instructional design principles and putting them each one into practice was quite challenging and exciting at the same time. I appreciate the diligence that has gone into designing of this program. All the aspect of this program seems to be meticulously designed and well thought of. I believe that it has everything that an instructional design program for senior professionals must have. Right from the weekly assignments, to discussion forums, to quizzes, impromptu questions, to online test, everything was designed and delivered with perfection.

It has instilled the much need confidence in me for applying the Instructional Design principles in my role as an eLearning Project Manager. I am feeling empowered with all this knowledge and direction!"

" I came to know about Creative Agni on Internet a few months back and then I got this golden chance to join the course. I was looking for a classroom-based ID course. Being a trainer, initially I was interested in the IDST course. However, based on my experience & qualifications, I was suggested the IDCD course.

The IDCD course is well structured and it was lot of fun along with learning. There were online discussions, concept assignments, quizzes and project assignments, which made the learning experience effective. I really liked the way Shafali conducted this course. Her invaluable advice during the course has really helped me in performing well. Thank you so much Shafali for your support, encouragement and a great learning experience. The IDCD course was one of the best learning experiences of my life. "

" Before I began, I was unprepared to start a two and a half month’s course, which I knew was going to crave for my abiding attention and commitment. But then I made up my mind to take this course. Now I strongly believe that no aspiring Instructional designer should miss the life-time opportunity to pursue the IDCD course from Creative Agni.

The program design is unique in its own way! It is a complete blend of conventional and non-conventional methods that are executed beautifully by mentor Shafali in her unique way, of course! Every feedback - be it appreciation or criticism, matters a lot as is given in a constructive manner and works wonders for you as the course proceeds. Her timely instructions and reminders about the upcoming assignments, workload, and challenges help you to be aware and prepared.

Thank you Shafali, for your advice and timely suggestions. They have helped me remain focussed and come through the toughest of times. Your suggestions about how to handle the workspace issues and foresightedness have helped me analyze my decisions. You walk ahead of time to predict the cause and effect of the situations. Thanks to Creative Agni, and to Shafali for being such an amazing mentor. "

" Upon joining the IDCD course, I realized that this is one of the best courses I have ever attended. The course is very well designed and its structure well communicated. A big thanks to Shafali for making this course so interesting and easy to understand. If it would not have been for her I couldn't have taken my quest of ID further. You taught all those ID theories and models so well that I will not forget them ever. Your constructive feedback not only helped me improve my learning skills but also kept me motivated through such a new course. My experience of instructional design, throughout the course, has been quite enriching. "

" I heard about Creative Agni’s IDCD course long back from one of my colleagues and she had strongly recommended this course if one seriously wanted to pursue a career in Instructional Design.

At the very onset of the course, I realized that this is one of the best decisions I have made on the professional front.

Shafali's way of making people learn is of another league. The detailing of every concept is filled with so many personal and professional examples that it's difficult not to understand it. Then, there are discussion forum posts and weekly assignments afterwards that make your understanding clearer and stronger. Assignments were challenging and they were designed to bring best out of you. And such was the experience that I really miss those assignments and discussions now. Overall the journey of this course was nothing less than a realization for me.

So if you are thinking of a career in ID, Creative Agni is the right way. "

" After working for more than 5 years in BPO and ePublishing industries, I wanted to switch my career to elearning. I was looking for reputed institutes in the country to get trained in Instructional Design. After much research I found Creative Agni in Noida. I did not hesitate to travel to Noida to take the Instructional Design and Content Development (IDCD) course. I am really glad that I underwent this training. Shafali's vast experience and her effective training methods as well as the concept and project assignments were the highlight of the program. This training program will be very beneficial for all who want to excel in the elearning industry. "

" I was looking for a program in Instructional Design (ID) which combines both theory and practice and therefore decided to enrol for the IDST Certificate Course with Creative Agni.

What impressed me the most about the course was the use of different ID principles in teaching it. Along with the classroom sessions, there were assignments, quizzes as well as a very interactive online discussion forum, which made the learning experience both enjoyable and effective.

I am confident of applying many of these ID concepts both in my role as a teacher and as a learning and development consultant. "

" I had heard about IDCD course by Creative Agni and wanted to pursue it in order to refine my skills. Luckily, I got a chance to be a part of Creative Agni classes. The course curriculum and evaluation is very well structured. It was one of the best learning experiences I have ever had. All classes are interactive and Shafali teaches every concept in such a beautiful manner that one will remember it for lifetime. She puts in a lot of effort and creativity to deliver lessons on different theories and models of ID. The assignments make sure that we retain the concepts and start applying it practically in our work.

I completely enjoyed the course and would like to thank Shafali for being an excellent mentor. She has motivated me towards blogging and enhanced my writing skills to a large extent. I am very confident of ID concepts now and aim to pursue a career in ID. I would definitely like to recommend this course to everyone who wants to be an outstanding Instructional Designer. "

" Thank you Shafali, for being my mentor. The IDCD course was one of the best learning experiences of my life. Shafali works on developing our thought process and helps align it with the concepts of instructional design. This helped me become more creative and innovative than ever before.

Thanks Creative Agni for igniting the creative fire within me. "

" After attending Shafali’s classes for the IDCD course, I realized that learning need not be just skin-deep.

The design of the IDCD course is a master piece of art, not only are we learning about various theories, models and frameworks during the event of the course, rather we are participants in a similar kind of framework while undertaking the course. Initially, I wasn’t sure of starting my career as an Instructional designer, however today, after the completion of the course, I am proud of having made this choice, thanks to the confidence instilled by my mentor Shafali and her intricately designed course.

The course was no short of a roller-coaster ride and I thoroughly enjoyed every turn it took. I was fascinated of how beautifully this course took me through Instructional design and content development that it is now almost "running in my blood." Thank you Shafali for supporting me through this course, I will certainly look forward to attending another one in the near future! "

" I was introduced to IDCD course by my friend, with a strong word of mouth. The entire concept of Instructional Design inspired me so much that I decided to grab this opportunity.

I joined this course with high expectations and I am extremely happy that by the end of the course, my expectations were met exceedingly. The entire course was not only structured very well, but also executed brilliantly. Personally it was difficult for me to make out who is better, Shafali Ma’am as an ID or as an Instructor.

In order to pursue your career as an Instructional Designer (ID) or a Trainer, one of the main prerequisite is one should know, how to develop effective and purposeful course content. Creative Agni contributes exceptionally well in building and honing your skills for the same. It has also helped me to give a concrete direction to my creativity and passion, to impart learning and further my career in this industry.

My sincere thanks to Shafali Ma’am and Creative Agni for providing such a wonderful platform, and wish them luck in their endeavor to fulfill professional and personal dreams :) "

" I had no idea a two-month course could be so rich a learning experience. However, I was in for a pleasant surprise - not only was it a rich learning experience, it opened so many doors all at once! Instructional design is much, too much in demand right now as the scope in the field of e-learning is limitless. IDCD happened to take two months of my full attention in order to deliver me ready and raring to go and explore the countless doors that have opened for me. The course is extremely well-designed. I have never seen a more dynamic and prepared teacher than Shafali Ma'm, to whom I would like to extend all the credit and gratefulness I feel after completing the course. Thank you for the powerful, interactive classes, the discussions at the discussion forum and all the fun assignments which ingrained instructional design in my mind. "

" I came to know about Creative Agni’s IDCD course from one of my colleagues a few months back and then I got this golden chance to join the course. The IDCD course is systematically designed, as one starts learning from the basics and develops their cognitive skills from the very first day of the class. The examples, ideas, and stories told by Shafali were very interesting, which makes the learning process easier and immersive. This course helped me understand the various models and principles of instructional design.

Moreover, Shafali is a wonderful mentor and gives her 100% to each student in the class. Thank you, Shafali for giving me this opportunity and showing me the right path in terms of my career. "

" IDCD course has been very well designed to give you an edge in your domain. Shafali is absolutely brilliant with her approach to make you understand the theories, concepts and models related to learning and content development and her assignments help you to apply the learning. The detailed feedback that one gets for the assignments motivates us to do better the next time.

This course is like a journey of transformation which gets better week by week. It starts from learning theories and concepts and applying all of them in the project assignments.

Beginning from different theories and models to storyboarding, this course makes you understand every aspect of Instructional Design. Whatever I learned in this course, I applied it in my weekly assignments, discussion forum, quizzes and finally in my project and this is what this course is all about, understand and apply your learning.

I would really like to thank Shafali for going that extra mile and motivating us. Thank you so much for everything and wish you and Creative Agni all the success. "

The course has also motivated me to improve my writing skills. The IDCD course has given me a clear understanding of Instructional Design (imparting learning effectively).

The best thing about this course is that whatever I learned, I was asked to apply in the assignments and the project.

" I was nervous when I started the IDCDT course because it was a new beginning for my career and I wasn't sure if I would be able to complete the course successfully or not. However, Shafali guided me throughout the entire course. I now believe that enrolling in this course was the best decision I ever made. I am convinced that no one who wishes to pursue a career as an instructional designer should pass up the opportunity to take the IDCDT course from Creative Agni.

The course design is distinctive in its own! This course is delivered in an unusual manner. We learned the important principles of ID through a variety of methods, which are beautifully executed by our mentor Shafali in her own unique way. Every piece of feedback she provided was extremely valuable to me. Her constructive feedback always taught me something new, which helped me excel in my assignments, project and discussions. My personal experience has shown that learning from her has resulted in a significant change within myself. Through this course, she helped me reconnect with my inner self. The things I had forgotten, my experiences and life lessons — they were all recalled somewhere along the way.

Thank you so much for being an inspiration to me. My experience with this course was extremely beneficial in terms of understanding the e-learning industry.

Thank you for bring out my creative side as an Instructional Designer. "

The course is very well-structured. The assignments, discussion forum, class activities, project and constructive feedback enhanced my understanding of each week’s topics. Throughout this course, I gained, learned and improved many skills that will be valuable as I start myprofessional career.

Shafali has been an exceptional mentor from the day one. She was like a true friend, who could see my worries and fears. The knowledge, wisdom, support and encouragement that I got from her are priceless for me. I am eternally grateful to her for everything that I learned during this course.

Thank you Shafali for your love, care, support, guidance and encouragement."

" Shafali R.Anand is the gold tag for Instructional Design Courses. Before enrolling for this course, I was experiencing some performance-anxiety, as this was a totally new field for me. Yet, right from the very first day, I began experiencing deep creative learning. I am a creative person but before the course I couldn’t explore my creativity as such. The best part of the course was online discussions and posts about our learning but even that required creativity.

Through the course activities, Shafali molded us into a creative learner. I really liked the way the course was conducted. Shafali's invaluable advice during the course has helped me put my best in the area of writing and I now look forward to applying my ID learning in my profession as a content creator.

Thank you so much Shafali! "

"The IDCD course helped me understand the ID principles and models, which I can relate to my projects and apply effectively in designing and developing courses. In addition to teaching us about the ID strategies, Shafali Ma'am encouraged me to write and present the content in my own way, which helped in building my confidence.I got to learn more than I expected. The course motivates us to enjoy learning and this is what Instructional Design is all about. Heartful thanks to her :-) "

" Before the IDCD course at Creative Agni, 'Instructional Design' sounded like a term used too often by the elites living in the utopian world. The pedagogy adopted for sharing knowledge at Creative Agni together with useful assignments and interesting online discussions definitely put the course in a league way different from the rest. Once you are through the course, you are ready to give the much needed thrust to your career.

So take the bull by its horns and get going!! "

" I was looking for a classroom-based ID course. The IDST course is well-structured and provides an environment where we can share our views and experience. It was lot of fun along with learning.

What I liked most about the course that there were online discussion, concept assignments, quizzes and project assignments which made the learning experience effective. I really liked the way Shafali conducted this course. Her invaluable advice during the course has really helped me in both personal and professional growth. Thank you so much Shafali for your support, encouragement and a great learning experience.

I am looking forward to applying the learning from the course. "

" As a participant in the Instructional Design and Content Development (IDCD) Certificate course, my overall experience has been overwhelmingly positive to say the least. Shafali conducted the classes in a very comprehensive manner. What I particularly liked about the classes was the fact that Shafali first made us familiar with the various theories and models of Instructional Design and thereafter, she ensured that we implement those concepts in practical Instructional Design assignments. The result was the marriage of theory and application which undoubtedly enriched my learning of the subject. Furthermore, the online discussion forum where we participated regularly helped all of us to hone our skills in the fundamentals of Instructional Design.

I would recommend the IDCD course to anyone who would like to gain expertise in Instructional Design. I have no doubt that this course will throw new insights and help a new learner gain a firm foothold in the field of Instructional Design. "

" ‘What’ and ‘How’ were the two considerations when I was contemplating transitioning from my existing domain. Once it was decided that I wanted to switch to Instructional Design, the next question was how to proceed. After a careful scrutiny of the options available, I went ahead with the IDCDT course by Creative Agni.

And what an experience it was!

Learning from Shafali was like being an Instructional Designer in a role-play, and she as a mentor, made sure that I play this role like a pro. IDCDT course not only made all the necessary concepts crystal clear but also helped me mould my existing skills as per the requisites of this new field.

This course is a force that will catapult your career. I would highly recommend this, as for me, this journey meant a lot more than getting a certificate.

Thanks, Shafali. "

" IDST is a well designed course that touches the right level for senior professionals. Every aspect of the course - the structure, the concept clarity, the examples, and the assignments - is really impressive. The discussion forum provided a great platform to interact with other participants. The course design followed exactly what it taught. The Examples and the activities were relevant and related to real life/work scenarios. Feedback was constructive and really motivating. Though, with my busy schedule it was quite challenging to meet the timelines of the assignments, it was not stress-generating. I enjoyed every moment I spent with the course and I regret that it came to an end.

I have started analysing my work assignments with the concepts learnt and have also started recommending the IDST course to my friends. "

" I was looking for a course in to Instructional Designing and was not able to find a good one. I found IDCD course online and got enrolled in the course. My initial expectations were to just touch the basics of the Instructional Designing but after the first class i realized that this course will cover the depth of the ID. The classes were very interactive this made me more engaged in to the course. The course curriculum and evaluation is very well structured.

All the classes were well planned with activities after every model or theory covered. Shafali puts in a lot of effort in to the course, every concept is explained with a story which gives more clarity.She motivates the participants which boosts their energy. This is the best course i have done so far.The best thing about this course is that you can start implementing what you have learned simultaneously and you don’t need to be an Instructional Designer to enroll and learn in this course. I will recommend this course to the ID aspirants for sure. "

" I was looking for a course in Instructional Design that would impart in-depth clarity on the application of the Instructional Design theory, principles and not just theoretical knowledge. One of my colleagues suggested 2 courses (IDCD course and IDST course) from Creative Agni. In my opinion the IDST course is more appropriate and relevant for a senior executive.

The course is well structured and provides an inspiring environment in which participants from diverse backgrounds contribute to discussions, offering different views and their rich experience. The interaction with Shafali and the other participants enriched my knowledge and exposure. It did not only refresh what I have learned from my past experience and other corporate training courses, it frequently inspired me with new perspectives.

I am looking forward to use the learning from the course and I am sure it will benefit me for the rest of my life – both personal and professional. "

" I love training and was looking for course/s that would help me add more skills to my current role and excel in Learning & Development industry. This is when the thought of Instructional Design struck my mind. I researched online for relevant courses and came across IDCD course via Creative Agni. I went through the course details and thoroughly read Shafali's succinct introduction on the website, which was very impressive that I could not stop myself from attending the Freebie (free workshop). She is called “a whole-brain thinker' which is absolutely true as after attending the workshop I felt so motivated about enrolling myself in the course and I did :).

I must say it's an excellent course which is extensive and covers all necessary aspects of Instructional Design which will help you design great courses in future, though more than that, an individual grows throughout the course. These 8 weeks have been so rich in learning that I could have never imagined of being possible anywhere. The way the course has been designed, which includes Classroom sessions, Weekly Concept Assignments and the most important contributor - 'the discussion forum', it ensures that you learn with every step you take. One becomes aware of his/her strengths & weaknesses. The classroom sessions keep you all pepped-up & attentive.

Most importantly, Shafali - someone whom I admire for the way she explains everything, for her Creativity - which is Remarkable and her Knowledge - which is Commendable. I respect her for the expertise she has and not to forget her love for Instruction Design.

I can go on & on about the qualities of this course, for its effectiveness & concepts covered and Shafali for being a tremendous facilitator, mentor and an inspiration. Altogether, this course has been one of the best learning experiences and it will stay with me throughout my life. It gave me the confidence to pursue my career in Instructional Design. I feel privileged to have attended this course as it gives you the push that you need in your life, to go the extra mile.

I certainly recommend this course to those who have a passion to learn, grow and succeed in this fraternity. "

" IDCD was never a course for me. It was a way towards my transformation. I was a banker serving my notice period when I joined IDCD. I had been in the Banking & Financial Services Industry for past 11 years with nothing to do in Instructional Design (ID) per se. I joined this course as I wanted to become a teacher in finance and while pursuing this course, I realized I had everything to do with the ID principles taught in this course.

I promise all those who join this course are sure to get the following three things: 1. A realistic opportunity of becoming great in your domain. 2. A gala learning experience. 3. A never before kind of a mentor and a real true friend in Shafali.

I feel lucky to have completed this course. Thank you God, Thank you Shafali. "

" The IDCD Online Course was a beautiful journey for me, a course which I can never forget. While pursuing the IDCD Online, I had health issues and I also lost my job because of Covid, but irrespective of challenges, Shafali as a mentor was always there to guide and support. It would had been extremely difficult for me to complete the course without her guidance.

Once you join the course, Shafali will ensure that you reach your destination. All you need to do is - just keep the level of your curiosity high and you will be successful.

Thank you Shafali for everything. "

" I had heard about Shafali's IDCD course a few years back and ever since, had been waiting for the opportunity to be able to join this course. Finally, when I joined this course, I could immediately see why the IDCD course is so highly reputed. This course isn't only a learning experience - it is a transformational experience. Under Shafali's deft guidance, of course you will learn how to create great courses; but you'll also relearn what it is to truly learn new things and explore them, and also what it is like to have a great educator and mentor.

Thank you for all this, and so much more, Shafali! I can't wait for another opportunity to learn from you again! "

" We, a lot of times, have a goal in mind but charting a path to reach that goal is always a challenge. Shafali and her meticulously designed course have helped me create that path to become an Instructional Designer. If you are like me, you would have considered theories the part to sleep through in school.

During this course though, you will see how they manifest as you design a program. Trust this program to make your mind agile and thus creative, it will equip you with necessary tools to create a program that appeals and helps your audience. There are activities that polish the learner. All this, coupled with Shafali's guidance and how she makes the program fun for her students to keep them engaged and learn well. If they see it then it also serves as a model of what a classroom, instrumental in learning, should look like. It lets the learner feel empowered like this program has made us."

" It was a great and unique learning experience for me to take and complete the IDST course.

Now, I can confidently apply the instructional design theories and models in the work assignments for my organization. Due to the relevant examples provided in the course, I was able to grasp the learning more easily. Additionally, the weekly discussions, the quizzes, the assignments, and the online test helped me strengthen my learning throughout the course. My dedication and commitment towards the learning sessions and the assignments finally paid off with my successful completion of the course, and will ensure the long-term retention of the knowledge gained through it. "

" It was a beautiful and systematic journey into the enchanting world of instructional design. All I would like to say is, once on-board 'Creative Agni Airways', fasten your seat-belt, and wholeheartedly entrust your zeal for knowledge and aspirations to carve a niche for yourself in this demanding yet expanding space, in the able hands of the pilot - Shafali, who will ensure that you reach your destination, by empowering you with her years of laudable experience and expertise.

For those who wish to embark on this journey, the only baggage allowed is a suitcase of curiosity and a rucksack of enthusiasm.

It doesn’t matter, if your thoughts on the subject are still formative and fluid, what’s exciting about the IDCD programme is, the availability of a great platform, to crystallize them, to create immersive and engaging learning experiences for learners.

Once again thank you Shafali! "

" The IDCD course was a great learning experience. I was exploring a new career option after a 10 years experience as a marketing coordinator and ID was one of the options that I was looking at. After discussing with Shafali I decided to take up the course as I did not have any elearning background. The 8 weeks programme removed my doubts and confusions about my choice of taking up the IDCD course. I did not just learn the various learning theories but was also able to map them to my personal experiences. The excellent course \content and continuous motivation by Shafali has made even somebody like me, who is completely new to the elearning industry, confident of being able to pursue a career in instructional design. "

" To begin with, this course has been one of its kind in my academic/professional/personal journey so far. The course has been designed such that each learning session is a milestone towards bringing the best out of the learner. I am fortunate that I was part of the course as it not only made me learn Instructional Design but also made me think out of the box. Shafali brings the best out of the course participants and I am grateful to her for making me an evolved person both professionally and personally! "

" It was a great learning experience. The way Shafali mentored, starting from scratch and continuing till the end has not only helped in learning Instructional Design but also created a zeal to learn more and more. This course has already started reaping me fruitful results in my work and I am looking forward to using everything that I learnt during IDCD. Thank you Shafali, for being such a great teacher, for keeping us on our toes, and giving such an interesting assignments and drawing learning through them. And last but not the least Storyboarding was an additional boost to confidence.

Thank you once again. "

" I have been in the training domain for last 11 years. Was looking to enhance my skills and learn more around the same. This thought helped me to look for courses in ID. Found Shafali, and went for the 1st free workshop. Was stunned to learn the depth around learning and its methodologies.

Shafali is a mentor in true sense. The program is designed in a manner that it will be easier to understand the theories and models around training and ID. The “Litmus tip” provided is amazing. The flow of training is great. The way the activities have been designed, you are taken through a rigorous work and the feedback process is amazing.

I recommend this training for all levels of professionals in training domain. Your insight towards planning or conducting training will change. The change is for good. Believe me, its amazing and I recommend this to all."

" I have been in Learning & Development for 10 years now and have been through different training and development programs. IDCD was absolutely different from the past courses that I have been a part of. This course has helped me come out of my comfort zone and look at different options of developing the content effectively.

Shafali has been instrumental in bringing the training concepts to life and has made me apply concepts in day to day activities. The course has been structured in such a way that it is extremely engaging and keeps one on their toes. Storyboarding was one of the best part of this course. It allowed me to understand how an online course can be made in an engaging way. It allowed me to be creative.

Thank you Shafali for a wonderful learning experience. "

" The IDCD Online Course is made for those who want to embark on this really special learning journey with Shafali. She has been an absolutely fantastic guide all along. I loved her methodology as it inculcated thinking and then looking for answers within rather than the usual searching the web. Assignments made us learn, practice and delve into the concepts each day solidifying our base. She gave us extensive feedback each time and put in a lot of effort.

I would definitely recommend this course as there is practical application of the knowledge similar to the real world scenario. Thus one comes out as a confident Instructional Designer ready to work on real projects.

I would like to sincerely thank Shafali for being 100% invested in us throughout the course duration to ensure that we are able to grasp the knowledge and apply it correctly."

" The IDST course is one of the most comprehensive courses in Instructional Design and Training that I have ever come across.

I had certain expectations when I took the course, but I was totally amazed by the detailed design and delivery of this course.

The delivery of this course, which is the icing on the cake, is all due to the efforts of who I like to call as the wizard of this trade, Shafali Anand. Each exercise and activity is so immaculately designed and delivered that it speaks volume of the experience and in-depth knowledge of the creator of this course, Shafali. She mentors each and every course participant and guides them in a way that their doubts are cleared for life. There is never a lull moment and in fact, one taking the course is always on their best foot forward. A big Thank You to Shafali for making this unique course so engaging and thorough that I wished it had continued for few more weeks. "

" Whatever certificates I’ve got in my entire life, the IDCD Online certificate is the most valuable for me.

In the last two years, I have gone through many Instructional design courses. I have so many certificates, but they all are just certificates. Those courses did not impart the ID skills I wanted. I never felt confident working as an instructional designer after going through those courses. But after attending the IDCD Online Course, I can say this with 100% surety that I am now confident of working as an instructional designer. In fact, anyone can become an effective instructional designer after attending this course.

And it was not just the course - In Shafali I found a mentor and a great human being as my coach and facilitator. I am thankful that I got this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to learn from her. "

"The IDCD course was an absolute roller coaster ride. Right from Day 1, it was always a new experience everyday. Every assignment that was given to us, acted as a catalyst to start the processing of our cerebral abilities.

Storyboarding was one activity I enjoyed the most. It allowed me to go to the untrodden bylanes of my creative habitat. I am looking for new challenges now and create one of a kind courses for all kinds audience.

Thank you Shafali for your guidance and your patience. "

" The course is very well structured and begins with the principles, theories, and frameworks of Instructional Design which is then followed by applying them in the Classroom and Home Assignments. Every assignment relates to the organization with which we work, which helps make it logically and practically applicable. The discussion forum is one of the most interesting aspects of the course as it ensures learning through the week followed by real life scenarios where the concepts learnt needed to be applied and discussed. The evaluation was well timed within the course followed by the final presentation and online test which was an icing on the cake.

Today I feel confident of applying my knowledge. Last but not the least I would like to make a special mention of Shafali who will go out of the way to ensure success in each learner’s learning thereby making it effective and her advices are something to vouch for. Thank you for such an amazing learning experience Shafali!!! "

" I had heard about the IDCD course from one of my colleagues. Since then I was interested in joining the course, and fortunately I got the chance to join it. After completing the course, I find it even more useful than what I had expected it to be. The course gave me a new vision and a new perspective towards designing and developing courses. I have learnt of many new things, which are really important in content writing and course design. The classroom interactions, assignments, quizzes, and discussions helped me hone my writing skills and creativity. It was really fabulous - a rich learning experience. I have learnt not only instructional design, but also a lot of other things on personal level during the course.

The course was very engaging, interactive and informative from all perspectives. I had not imagined that a course could be so interesting. All the credit goes to the Instructor, Shafali Ma'am. She is a mentor in the real sense. She made things easy to understand by providing relevant examples and analogies. She has designed the IDCD course brilliantly. I feel proud to be a part of this course and heartily thank her for giving me a chance to take up this course.

This course is a wonderful platform for all the ID aspirants and I wish Creative Agni and Shafali Ma'am all the success. Please keep up the good work. "
