I enjoy courses from the IDM, as the trainers share their experiences and use other industries as examples. It's not just theory based. The application to course work always helps with better understanding

This course has really shown me how to alter my existing writing skills to produce successful online copy - I didn't realise what simple changes to my copywriting could achieve with regards to grabbing the readers' attention and holding it

Tim was an excellent tutor! The topics were broken down perfectly and easy to digest.

Matt Jackson,
Blue Train Marketing

It was a well planned and thought out course. I learnt loads of things I never knew/considered before now.

Tim was brilliant, very knowledgeable & engaging. Leant lots from him & felt I could ask lots of questions.

I really value IDM learning. They don't complicate but show you the best way of how to do things. It really boosts confidence.

An interactive discussion with an expert in the field, I was able to get a classroom experience from the comfort of my home.

Interesting and inspiring course with lots to take away and think about but also lots to be able to action immediately. And it was fun!

Really insightful course with engaging teacher. Made a million notes and now keen to get putting it to practice!
