I love the attententivness of the staff with the reminders and content. I wish some of the classes were a little more interactive but otherwise has been a great experience thus far.

I chose to take the Nutrition Diploma course to round out my degree and to help myself understand the topic more in depth do that I can apply it to my personal life as well as my clients' lives.

So far I have received great and accurate information with a desirable delivery and helpful tools.

The only thing I would change is how often the classes are offered (IE: I would like to be able to have the option to do more than 2 classes per week).

Super excited to continue learning through Shaw Academy!

I've just completed my second photography class and so far it has been fabulous. The instructor is great, the content is informative. I can't wait for my next class

Fraud and Scam
Be aware. Stay away from them. Steal your money.
I signed up for 4 weeks trial on the 26th of March and provided my card details. Within two days of the trial period, I found that the course I was interested in Shaw academy is different than what I thought, I requested cancellation which said you can cancel after 48 hours(why I don't know) waited for 2 more days. For cancellation, I had to go through so many steps and in the end, it said you have to call on so and so the number to cancel. After calling the number and listening for all the offers for 10 minutes I was again told to write an email. Again wrote an email for cancellation after following up for 3 days with all automated response finally a someone replied that they can not cancel but have requested the respective team. and your account will be updated with 48 hours.
And on 21st April I see a charge on my credit after all this 1week of wasted efforts on follow up for cancellation. 
I have come across so many similar stories and experiences online and I realized that it's a normal trend of shaw academy and thousands of people are being scammed all over the world. 

It is a very interesting course and I am enjoying it and looking forward to the next class! However it is only 4 weeks so I'm not sure about the ROI quality.

Best explanation and support, interactive sessions, excellent visualization and proper explanation of working of adobe softwares! Highly recommended!

I have only recently started the classes but I have found them to be very interesting and helpful. They are well done and well taught. It would help if my beauty course instructor spoke a little slower as taking notes can be a bit difficult. Thankfully the classes are available to be watched again so you can get what you missed.

As a fortunate photography learner. I got the opportunity to pursue Diploma in Photography online course from Shaw Academy for free during this Covid-19 lock down. Genuinely, I found this course very useful as a starter. The coach gives information from root level. And the best part is before the doubt/question arises in mind, he replies instantly. It shows how minutely the course model is designed. My gratitude to the academy and importantly to the coach. Thank you from bottom of my photographer heart.

After my first class, I was impressed by the layout of the course and that you have to tune in on specific days and times. This gives the program a more "true school" feel even though it is online. Thank you!

He doesnt explain things as well as I'd like and doesnt go into much detail. On the other hand, I personally got a discount so I think it's pretty good for free.

I LOVED the content of the Photoshop lesson! However, I found you MUST be online at the beginning of class to connect, which will apparently then be recorded. Also, times start "on the hour", which limits when you can schedule a missed session. I also don't care for the sales material/tools that are promoted on the web site.

Hi, my name is Paulo Prado, I’m form Brasil but I’ve came to Portugal to try a new life.

The beginning was tough, because when you do that all you use to be don’t have value, I mean documents, bachelor etc was a kind of fresh restart.

I've went through a lot of thing in order to set up myself then came the quarantine and all around, all of us have to make a journey into ourselves, and what we are in essence that was there all this time outcrop and I see my self in contact with Design, arts, creativity, drawing again and this Graphic Design course from Shaw Academy helped me to rediscover myself. I want to say my sincere thanks to Shaw Academy 😃.

I love the online classes offered. Convient for my schedule and also makes it very understanding for anyone to learn at their own pace.

So far I am enjoying the class. It is informative and moves at a reasonable pace.

I was really impressed with the lessons. There is a ton of useful information and I really like the format. Easy to use and understand. The information is relevant. I'm excited to take more classes.

Easy to sign up, mostly run by an AI system and very little interaction with actual people so I do feel kindof alone in "class". There are other optional purchases for the assignment's and certification and a little more than I'd like to spend. I just started the program and tight of the bat it feels much less overwhelming than a typical online degree program. In the USA this won't count for much unless you're just running your own business or side gig- this won't qualify you to work in the specific field of study but it's a good basic education. If you want to do a whole program, they're mostly 3-6 month programs so bundle for best savings. The one month free trial will only get you thru one module and there are 4 for nutrition. There are"toolkits" for each module that include assignments, slides etc for$39.99 each. So if you want those you'll pay for each of them on top of your monthly subscription cost. The certificate is also another $39.99. SO, unless you're like me and only doing this for self improvement, there are more costs than what they come right out the gate and say. It's good information though so I don't think it's like a waste of time or anything.. but maybe a wee bit over priced. Still less expensive than college, but again, you're not getting a true degree with this. Alright, with that, I hope you enjoy learning. It's a lot of just sitting back and listening, some interaction with a chat bot, and a PowerPoint slide.

Excellent Content, High Quality use of time investment. Great refresher for experts in the category.

These classes are affordable which is why I keep coming back! I only wish the classes weren't so rushed. I have ADHD and therefore trouble retaining information and I don't have the attention span to return to the recorded classes. I furiously take notes but I miss a lot of information because they go so fast. I could really use slower instruction

I just started module 1 of the graphic Design program, I’ve had 2 classes. They have been very informative and I look forward to the upcoming weeks. I was just looking for an intro to GD, and this was the perfect fit. I don’t know if will continue with the next modules yet.

From the service, to the pricing and class delivery, it is a life time experience. Had my first class and my expectation was High but I rather got an overwhelming experience. Thank you ShawAcademy you guys are fantastic.
