Student Testimonials

"The course explained things in more detail and made concepts much clearer to me, than they would have otherwise been." -- Sue J.
"The instructor was a good monitor of the process and provided very good feedback (to enable learning)." -- Michael B.
"I learned so much from this course. I am looking for a job myself and also began working with an employment consultant while I took this course. I don't know if i will become a Career Coach, but I have a real solid idea of the role, the training required and it's value to clients. " -- Joanne A.
"I would recommend this course and instructor. I learned a lot that was very helpful." -- Mary G.
"I found Career Coaching 101 was fairly concise and user friendly compared to the free, economics course I took on Florida Virtual school." -- Anne T.
"The Career Coach 101 course was extremely well organized and presented in a logical format. It challenged me in a manner that I was not accustomed to compared with other online courses that I have completed. I am able to apply what I have learned to make my current programs more relevant. I will recommend the course to my colleagues and clients! I look forward to enrolling in and completing additional Universal Class course offerings." -- JACK B.
