one of the hardest things about being a teacher is getting honest, holistic feedback. I will never forget how my evaluations were wildly different depending on who was actually observing me teaching
This was very timely & helpful. I come from a background where my day was about putting out fires first & then fitting in my projects in between. I've had two small L & D consulting projects , but they were very specific to Ca compliance/HR and followed preset limits. Thanks for providing an idea about what the daily/monthly structure looks like. It's nice to see how the process of completing the whole package (design, creativity, building & meetings) gets structured.:)
Thank you for this! I currently work as an LMS Admin with some BA duties in my company but I want to upskill to Learning Experience Design because I also want to develop content and just clear out fires lol If you could do your onboarding again, what would you prioritize learning that would have made your transition easier? I just finished the voyager certification of Camtasia because I am interested in working as a LED for tech companies
Hey there, If you're looking to move into corporate LXD we typically recommend starting by applying the theory to real world projects and getting comfortable using an authoring tool (along with one or two relevant graphic editing software). Camtasia is a great one for video editing, so you got that part covered. Thanks for watching :D
Hello, thank you for the information you share. I'd like to know if I have any chances to become an instructional designer if I have a Bachelor's degree from a foreign country (English as a second language professor). I live in the US but I have little knowledge about how or where to start from. I'd be more than grateful if you can reply to my message and give me a hint.
Thanks for watching :D We've worked with some people from outside of the U.S. who became successful IDs in the bootcamp, so it's definitely possible! From what we've seen, most hiring managers are looking for candidates who can apply theory to solve problems, can utilize relevant tools, and incorporate good visual design elements.

@@DevlinPeckYT thank you very much for your reply. It's a bit challenging to find your own career path in a different country than your native one but it's a matter of working hard to achieve it. I'll continue learning from your channel!
From my understanding, you usually create presentations (whether through video or as a “slideshow”) for clients. Are IDs ever required to design posters or PDFs for learning?
There are a lot of different learning solutions IDs can create! Since remote learning has taken off, there are a lot of opportunities for eLearning, but if the problem calls for a different solution you might put together an ILT or job aid instead. This article may go in more depth to answer your question! Thanks for watching :D www.devlinpeck.com/content/what-is-instructional-design
I am thinking about getting into the Leadership And Deveolpment role, and knowing that being an instructional design is a part of the criteria. Would you recommended anything knowing I am going in that position and their is some overlaps with this.
Hey there :) It depends on the role, but you could start with a broad overview of what an ID should know so you can orient yourself in the field. This article might be helpful: www.devlinpeck.com/content/how-to-become-instructional-designer Thanks for watching!
@@DevlinPeckYT thanks a lot. My concern was mostly around approaching a Learning and Development career path but I know their is some part of it that has to do with instructional designing for the classes you will need to teach.
@Devlin Peck Teachers have the highest transferbale set of skills more than any other profession to transit into any social-science related dicipline even above HR's...but, 90% do not know; that is were heutagogy works for those who know.

So true! Feedback makes a huge difference.

Glad it was helpful and put things in context for you! Thanks for watching :)
Thank you!! Love how candid you are❤
How do your holidays work...with the school board's?
I think a lot of K-12 to ID candidates would like the "missing feedback" Scott mentioned. It's huge. Total Validation helps ensure success!
Yes! Feedback is crucial and definitely a "missing" piece. Thanks for watching :D

Thanks for sharing this idea. Teachers have an awesome skillset and capacity for upskilling on their own if they want to transition into the field!
I left k-12 for the same exact reasons!
Glad Scott's perspective resonated :)
