My Experience with Them

I learned about Shaw Academy through promotion from my cell phone provider. There are lots of courses to choose from, but I chose Social Media Marketing since I am trying to get better on blogging and online marketing. I fell in love with their service because it really does teach you something and the material that they provide is of high quality.

What I Love About Shaw Academy:

1. Scheduled Live Lecture to Increase Completion Rate

Their online webinar is scheduled meaning I had to attend it at the same time and on the same day every week. I was given a chance to choose the schedule of my classes at the beginning of the semester.

NOTE: Be careful choosing your schedule because this will be your schedule for the next 4 months if you are planning to finish all 4 modules.

This set-up is good for me because it trained me to allocate my time to attend my online classes. In other words, since I know when my classes will be then I will have to block my time off. This helped me to attend all my classes because I don’t forget or I don’t have to postpone it after learning I double book my schedule for the day.

I have attended other online classes that can be taken any time of the day/week and usually, this leaves me procrastinating.

---

2. Recorded Lessons for Later Viewing

One feature Shaw Academy offers is their live online lessons are recorded and posted 24 hrs after the class. What is great about this feature is I can watch classes that I miss or review the classes that I think are important.

3. Class Notes for Increased Retention

I like jotting down notes while I am listening to a lecture. It allows me to follow along with the class because it helps me to focus.

Shaw Academy provides a hard copy of the slides for each lecture allowing students to take notes as they follow along with the class. They also provide a copy of the lecture summary which helps students know what the lesson is about.

You get a certification when you finish the 4 modules

This is one of the biggest reasons why I am taking courses at Shaw Academy. I originally have a degree in Chemistry, but there are not a lot of opportunities here in Canada in this field. Chemist’s pay here is low and the schedule is busy so I decided to take courses on Social Media Marketing since it is becoming a gold standard in advertising products.

What I don’t love

You “can” ask questions to fellow classmates/ and instructor

They claim that you can ask your instructor via email, or ask in the classroom, but you will never get a response aside from the A.I. bot that answers only basic questions.

When you email the instructor, they will only give you a link to their FAQ page. On their, automated email, they will remind that instructors will prioritize replying to premium members only. I am a premium member and the instructors never replied to me.

---

Excessive Email reminders

The intention of an email reminder is good, but it can be overwhelming. Shaw Academy sends a 24 hrs reminder, 12 hr reminder, and 1 hr reminder that your course is about to start. If you are enrolled in 3 or more classes then your inbox is done! Of course, you have an option to turn it off.

---

Pricey if you don’t want the certification

Compared to Udemy’s online course fee, Shaw Academy is much more expensive! Of course, you don’t get anything for finishing a course in Udemy. However, there are lots of courses at Udemy that can provide as good content as Shaw Academy provides.  Another downside of Shaw Academy is they don’t allow monthly payment on their multi-month subscription so you need to dish out a huge amount of money to enroll.

---

You can’t get a refund when you decided to drop the course

Unfortunately, unlike a traditional school where you can get a refund if you drop your course within a time period, Shaw Academy does not provide that. Once you pay, there is no turning back. You can cancel your subscription anytime but don’t expect your money coming back even if you have not enrolled in any courses yet.

Conclusion

Overall, I love the service Shaw Academy provides. Once you use it, you can feel that they truly have the mission to add value to the lives of their customers. Shaw Academy provides high-quality material and their instructors are highly engaged.

There is no legitimate concern with the service they provide. If you realize, the downside that I have sent are only personal pet peeves and may vary from person to person.

Shaw Academy is great for people who are seriously looking to upgrade or just love to grow and develop themselves regardless of how much they needed to invest.
