This App service is not Free! I thought this LMS was the greatest until now. I paid for my certificate after I completed the course. I have screenshots to prove my purchase and this company did not release the certificate. It's taking them many hours and still no certificate, nor a real customer service agent to assist. They also don't have a number to call if you run into issues either. Be careful when using this app. It's giving scam vibes.

It is awesome and very detailed. The explanations are simple and direct. Although there occur lagging issues but overall it is an excellent app. I wish the developer can fix the lagging issues as well as ensure the app can save the actual progress point of the learner and not the pre-programmed point in the app. Thanks

The app is user-friendly and easy to navigate, making it simple to find and access the educational content I am looking for.I appreciate the wide range of topics and subjects covered in the app, allowing me to expand my knowledge in various areas. The lessons are well-organized and include interactive quizzes and activities that help reinforce the material and keep me engaged.

It's such an awesome experience it's just great, learning is made easy and straightforward to the point. Step by step guide and examples that are direct to the subject which makes it easy to understand and follow. Another important factor is that the whole setup is designed in a way that you don't even need any extra explanation it's simple and easy to keep up

I think that the courses sometimes give incomplete information. I don't like the fact that I have to read everything I think that offering videos with lectures and real professors is much better, it is also a better way to learn and to remember the knowledge. On the other hand, I could find courses that aren't offered through other similar apps.

Recently this has been very glitchy, barely able to use it for 10min before it stops working. Seems it could be the overly freuqent ads thats making it glitch. The new video format compared to the text in course is really glitchy, cant continue the course because the video isnt working. Having the option of text would be great if the video isnt working.

The website is easy to navigate, with a simple and attractive design, and the courses are easy to enroll in. I found the courses to be useful, but some found them lacking in depth. The courses are free, but you have to pay for a certificate or diploma print out. The platform has a wide range of courses, and you can refer friends and families too.

The best ever and I am learning alot. It is highly recommended because It's Engaging, Informative, User-friendly since it's easy to navigate and understand. It is comprehensive and covers a wide range of courses. The awsome aspect is that It's also accessible across various platforms and devices for convenience. I'm glad I came across such a platform.

Great course well laid out. Easy to learn and nice you you can take notes in the app and save and email to yourself later with the heading of the topic for easy review. It's nice also that you can retake the test multiple times if needed but not the same questions appear every time to ensure you learn. Great system free learning and if you ever need the skill for work pay a little fee and you get certificate or diploma really nice.

I would give this three or least a half star. The app is great, found amazing classes. But over time I'm learning, I fallen out of interest from the videos. Like sooo many videos of the intro and what I'm studying. I rather watch two videos and read a article. Than do a test, cause my brain would ask what we read in that article and helps me to engaging a lil more in my courses. Little more reading and less watching videos. Cause we can watch a video through phones and not take in anything.

At first I enjoyed learning and trying to pass the tests. Until I got to the video part of the cognitive techniques on anxiety and mindfulness. I have a very hard time understanding what the lady is even saying in the videos. I've tried to watch it several times and she rambles on and whatever she is saying is so hard to understand I can't learn any of those parts. Maybe just stick with the reading it and learning or getting someone who can talk so we can understand them.

The information itself is very helpful, and the courses themselves are truly free. The Certificates all require payment, and the amount of typos and grammatical errors throughout the courses is very high and takes away from the professional feel of the subject matter. Also, test questions get marked as wrong if you enter singular or plural and they happen to want the one you didn't enter, even though your answer is technically correct.

The quizzes within courses need some work, especially "drop down" answers, which don't drop down at all and instead trigger a separate screen to select an answer via radio button. The problem is the 'previous' and 'next' buttons for the course often overlap the 'save' and 'cancel' buttons for the quiz, preventing you from actually saving your answer. Very irritating, and too many unnecessary steps in the first place. It's a shame because otherwise the app is very good.

I love it!! Only thing, I recommend telling students: when typing an answer in the box during your assessment test, be sure to use numeric value or you get the answer wrong even if you typed it out. Ex "four" needs to "4". That is all. Love the friendly encouragement emails on the way to completing your goal. A great value for completing the first and second degree. Thank you so much!!

UI is simplified yet there is no tutorial (trial and error). Charts are very difficult to read on mobile - many charts read like you're learning how many syllables a word contains. It's very jarring! There are also quite a few grammatical errors. There are a broad swath of jobs skills to choose from however they appear random and overly basic with no structure. Adding a goals tab would benefit. Slides, thus far, are technical and offer little in the way of example, especially the "how."

I couldn't just search available courses, I had to complete a questionnaire so courses could be suggested. The questionnaire requires a specific number of items for each question, but a lot of options didn't suit me. I focused on business and IT items, but it had no courses to suggest based on my selections. My suggestion is to add an option to bypass the questionnaire and search for courses.

I enjoy the learning. I wish there was more description of the subsections and the menu was broken down more. A precursor of what to learn from the subsection would be advantageous to be more prepared for the quizzes and tests. I am currently taking course on property management and wish there was a plan for a diploma instead of paying separately for certificates of several courses. Learning for free is great and paying for the certificates is nice instead of paying for classes.

Slow all the way around!! It doesn't matter if I use the app or the website! It's constantly lagging and The quality of the videos is hit or miss.. and most of the courses won't help in obtaining an actual career.. while there are a few courses on here that can help with up-skilling.. I wish there were more legitimate course options.. more certifications, etc..

Functionality is good and design is beautiful. However, one minor flaw which affects the User experience quite a bit is that you cannot go to the next or previous video while in Full Screen mode. You have to rotate your phone back to regular (vertical) mode and then hit next or previous for the next (or previous) video lesson. Just something to think about for a future update.
