Hands down, the best school online.

Wow! It was such a good experience. It is my last week with CD-ED HIM program. I have no regrets doing this program and doing it online because of the busy schedule. There are times that i feel that i won't make it but my professors/ mentors in the program kept pushing me in a positive way to achieve my ultimate goal. This is truly a not for profit school and the student's success is definitely the priority.

Great experience!

CD-ED was the right choice for me. I had decided that I needed a change in career but I also needed to be able to work while in school to be able to fulfill my family obligations. The Medical Office Assistant program was exactly what I was looking for. It was challenging but the instructors were always available to answer questions and give advice. I am now looking forward to a new experience in the work force!

AMAZING!

The instructors and staff at this school have helped me every step of the way, answering all of my emails when I need assistance, and always being there for me when times are tough. The coursework is laid out in a way that isn't complicated to figure out, and the best part of it all is you can complete the work on your own time! I love that this school doesn't treat you like you're just a number and classifies you with all of the other unique students. They recognize that everyone learns differently. I highly recommend this school to anyone who wants to get a great education and doesn't want to commit to a specific schedule!

Life changing!

From beginning to end my experience with CD-ED was far above expectations. My instructor was excellent, both a professional in the field and an excellent guide throughout the program.
The admissions as well as student services staff are professional, caring, and helpful and answered all my questions, many before I even thought to ask them. The 100% online program was convenient, reliable, and well structured - it runs like a well-oiled machine.

All-in-all, though I was worried about returning to school in my late 30's, the past year has been a rich and rewarding experience, and I am now ready to tackle this new career with confidence.

I have taken other on-line learning courses before and CD-ED has been the best experience for support and course layout. I feel like I have an instructor near by whenever I need questions answered and the courses are run efficiently and effectively. Students are set up for success with CD-ED!

Thank you for providing feedback. Job searches are unique because the job seeker impacts the job search itself. There are 2 types of factors that influence job search results: internal and external. The more you know about all the factors that impact a job search, such as internal (ourselves, our personality, how we handle situations & react, our self-esteem) and external (industry demand, economy, urban/rural settings), the more productive a job search can be. It is also important to recognize that smaller places (low population) simply do not have a lot of jobs to offer because population size does not warrant it. You are welcome to contact Career Services at careerservices@cd-ed.com or 1-866-797-5333 ext 7

My experience with CD-ED

I could not be any happier or more impressed with CD-ED, I would absolutely recommend this school to anyone. I have a very busy schedule so the ability to study and complete assignments and tests any time of day has been extremely valuable. This flexibility has allowed me to complete the majority of my program late at night after work once my kids have gone to bed. The ability to contact my instructor with any questions I've had along the way and hear back in a very timely manner has been extremely helpful. When I was deciding which school to attend the thing that set CD-ED apart for me was their course outline, every single class and assignment you complete is extremely relevant and useful. There aren't any "filler" courses which is very refreshing and encouraging. The work load is also very manageable and I had no problem keeping up and even progressing faster than needed at times, the course information is very engaging and easy to digest. I'm extremely happy I chose to attend CD-ED and I would unreservedly recommend it to anyone!

My review includes an experience from a significant shift from holding the doctoral degree in geology and having worked for more than 15 years in the university environment as research and academic to the immigration triggered shift to a dental office administration program.
This shift sounds interesting but understandably challenging and could have become even so, had I not received an appropriate support from the school where from i decided to accomplish the shift.
Starting from the first interaction with the representatives of the student admission through finance and down to the instructors, I have found the team very cooperative, knowledgeable and highly accessible.
The contents of the program represented the highest level of professional touch and the way the LMS worked and was designed proved to have demonstrated the sophisticated technology. It was the best experience i came across.
The modules were nicely designed and represented appropriate ratios of theory and practical work.
I would truly recommend the CDED to any of my contacts, who would like to study either for upgradation or career shift.

Cd-ed was the best choice for me. I am a single mom and this gave me both the time and energy to complete school when I could but also had deadlines. So happy I was able to access Cd-Ed

Review of Office Assistant Management Course

I have learned a lot about working in an office that I didn't know before. My computer has improved 100%. The professors were excellent teachers, they were patient, comforting and really took their time in helping me. This was a new experience for me and I was very anxious but they calmly helped me through the situation. The work course was so easy to understand that I caught on easily. I loved the step-by-step instruction with the different computer programs that were in the course. I'm more of a hands-on person so it was very easy for me.
