Graphic Design, Web Design
Informative, good pacing of lessons, you learn a lot.
But when you have questions and mail your teacher you don't get a reply so you have to research yourself (this is fine with me but if I got someone I can ask directly I'd like to make use of that, yanno) and the description of what you get for what you pay can be misleading. You have to read very carefully.
But I'm satisfied so far and intend to continue. Overall 8/10 recommend.misleading system for toolkits.
Was charged for a product add on without any confirmation or warning that money would be taken.
Leadership and Management
Just had the first lesson in the morning. The teaching method is awesome and perfectly paced.
Great coaching !
It was a good platform of learning
and please I want to have access to me assignment on week 1. I can't wait for my next lesson to beginDiploma in Digital Marketing Course
The lectures are clear, concise, and readily understandable. I am extremely glad that I signed up.
Nutrition Diploma
Lovely course, would love to do more courses on this website.
Hi, I just started this course today, it's a whole new course to me but very educative to me.
N/A
I recently enrolled for a free course in Project Management. I must say the clarity in the way the voice and explanations is way above standard. To me, that's good quality service and would definitely recommend a friend to enrole. I have not made any purchases yet, as I wanted to see how courses are done and managed and I am obviously encouraged to do so. Keep up the good service Shaw Academy.
Fitness and Weight Loss
I've only done two classes but I feel like I have already learned so much. I am a relatively active person who has already made strides on his fitness journey but I still needed a bit more info and push to overcome the plateau.
It is a little hard to stay concentrated on a computer screen for the hour long class, so my only suggestion would be shorter, more concise classes.
Right now, they are running a free 4 week period which is fantastic but you have to pay for the test after each module. Imagine having to pay for both the subscription and the module tests. A little too pricey in my opinion.
Very good experience overall.Photography course
I really liked the way the class was taught! Everything was explained well and structured. Eventhough I am not a beginner, I still learned things. Looking forward to the second class
As a novice to photography, I really learned a lot of the basic. Ive been using DSLR for a long time but I was baffled why i cant have a shot that i saw, from others using same model. And thanks to this course that i learned a lot that i can practice. Though I am not yet getting my best shot, with a lot of practice, and manipulation of my unit, I think i will be confident in the future that i am good at it. With the fee for the second to fourth module, I didnt have a regret that i spent it in the course.
Eng Diploma
Its my first few days on the Shaw Academy and I'm already in love with her. Her means the app here
I started my course last nite enjoyed my 1st lesson cant wait to do the next one the toutur was very good and clear when explaining the subject I would recommend this course to all my friends and family
It's my first time of having an online course and am really glad my first trial is with Shaw academy. The class was interesting, detailed and made simple. I believe at the end of the course it really going to worth the time and effort and be put to good use.
Professional Diploma in Nutrition
I've never taken any online courses before, so I gave nothing to compare this to.
Pros:
The first month free is great, so you can try it out.
The schedule is very flexible. That has to be the best thing. I work a lot and have a very strange schedule, so the flexibility is wonderful.
Reminders are sent so you do not forget about your classes or lose track of time when a class is about to start.
Info is presented clearly in slide show format.
You can rewatch each class as many times as you want. I've found this to be a huge help.
While rewatching a class, you can press pause to copy a diagram, rewind or fast forward.
Cons:
The classes go too fast for me to take notes.
I don't understand how to interact with the class, because I don't have any chat options. So it's hard for me to believe this is live and not just pre-recorded.
I benefit more from the recordings than I do from the live classes, because I can rewind or pause.
Lessons are so packed with info that I have to watch them multiple times. This is becoming too time consuming for me to keep up with.
I live in USA, so with everything being presented in the metric system, that's very confusing for me. With the speed of the class, I don't have time to stop and do conversions.
Also, the teachers pronounce certain words differently and some things are spelled differently. This has been somewhat distracting.
I can't afford all the costs associated with the course. I'd like to take advantage of the tool kit, but can't afford it. I wish you could have temporary access to the tool kit so you can see what it contains in order to decide if it's worth your investment.
I accidently made a purchase when I clicked on something for more info. I didn't even realize I was charged until I just got my credit card statement. I'm not too happy about that. I had just downloaded the app and was checking out it's features, so I didn't yet know how it worked and accidently purchased the Module 1 Certificate (which I still don't understand the purpose of, so I don't know what my $40 is going towards). I would've much rather invested that money in the tool kit to help me along.
There's a lot of typos on the website. This isn't impacting my learning experience, but it's unprofessional. If you apply for a job and mention Shaw Academy, an employer might check into it. Upon visiting the website, if they notice missing punctuation and grammatical errors, they'll probably figure it's not a high quality education. There are a lot of areas that require editing.I began the intro class today.The lecture is top notch; easy to grasp and understand. I'm grateful for this platform
It is a good basic course for the beginners. Someone with zero knowledge of marketing can also grasp with their learning. I have recommended personally to many of my friends and some have already taken the course.
I appreciate that Verizon Wireless is providing a 60-day training course at no cost to take the training at Shaw Academy. Photoshop is such a powerful program, so I knew that I needed to take a class from a professional. With a background in photo editing from using programs included with my Photo app, I understand the terminology and concept we worked on today. I am looking forward to the next lesson. Thank you.
I have been taking Diploma in social media marketing and blogging and content marketing. Both courses benefited me a lot during this period as I think I have found my interest and hobbies. Also, I would want to join the media industry in the future and these courses give me a heads up on seeing what its really like in the working world.
I have been doing the online lessons and It has been engaging unlike other classes I have attended even in my own school previously. I am so thankful for this course and the free online courses provided during this covid19 period. To get me learning even though Im stuck at home.
Thank you so much!It's a very lovely class, I enjoy every bit of the class, I want to use this medium to say a very big thank to everyone making Shaw Academy a Success, thank you all it's a privilege to be here and I am delighted and grateful.

The classes go to fast to take notes
I won't win a MacBook pro for this but honesty goes a long way. As you used a quote in lesson 4 let me use this back to you. Unhappy customers are your greatest source of learning.
You preach one thing and do another. Your email are unqualified, I have bought the lesson pack yet I have two-three emails asking me to buy it. The scheduling of lessons sucks! You have wasted two days for me. Furthermore apparently my account is cancelled after having a conversation with you yet NO ONE has called me. Think you really need to buck you ideas up here if you are running a professional course. I feel for you and I find it embarrassing! We all make mistakes but this is getting beyond mistakes now, its just wreckless abandonment! I have listed problems in email and you shut cases and queries down without having even resolved them or interacting with me. Really!!!! I would question whether you even care about customer service. I would rather you just ran the course at any time without the "fake real time presentation" as you aren't fooling anyone. I feel you have really set your own self up for HUGE criticism. This query and others have not been addressed at all in fact far from it.
My course was cancelled with NO explanation. Who did it and why?
I have problems rescheduling my courses.
I initially couldn't access the toolkit and its still no obvious where all my info that I have paid for is.
The course content comes far too fast when in this course I have no time to write nots before you move in.
I am being marketed to to BUY the toolkit when I have ALREADY BOUGHT it. Why?
There are broken links for the 12 month free subscription.
Morpheus is completely useless in session.
Your customer service is shocking. Telling me my issue(S) have been handled and shutting them down is not effective from a customer service or a customer management perspective.
As you are lecturing in this subject, I would have expected a lot more from the organisation in terms of its conduct.
Please call me directly this may be a better way of resolving this, my number is +44 7812347134
I really think the problem lies with your scheduling tool and NOT me. Was meant to sit this last night and it kept changing. Then was 9 then 10 then midnight.
This tool for scheduling is a joke. This course better go ahead in 38 mins or I will flip my lid here. It's a joke this!
I articulated all the problems in a email yesterday look.at that rather than sending me this pointless childish badly informed BS.
Wise up! I am your client and to be frank your customer service needs a complete overhaul! Fact.
May I advise reading the cases raised in my email FIRST before contacting me. Most of the issue are here. I will await you call. Regards, Mr ThomsonI attended my first class this morning and I was truly appreciative of all the information that was prepared and taught in my class. I am truly excited to continue this course as I would have needed this for future business ventures I have already acquired and have yet to bring on stream. The best feature so far the ability to go back and re-watch the recording for the sole purchase of getting what you may have missed during the live session. The session can go a bit fast and have scrambling for notes but that re-watch feature is the best as I would have already re-watched all the parts that I missed. Other than that this is just the beginning and this is what I can comment on for now. Yes I would recommend this particular class (even though I am not even halfway through it) and this platform to anyone wanting to take advantage of online learning.
I did my first lesson today but so far everything has been great!
this is my first online course, and my best part is that i can look over the videos.
Thanks for being so protective and caring ..I really appreciate your efforts.
Good job !
I am currently in the middle of the diploma in social media and absolutely loving it. Jessica is clear and easy to understand and speak in a language that is relatable and believe I am learning some great things which will be an asset to myself and business
the classes are very interesting and very usefull.
First time attending an online course. A great experience. The presenter presents the teaching materials very well. Easy to understand and catch out of the module. I still wondering the exam and certificate charges that going to charge to me. If within a week allowed to attend more classes be better. That will spend up the learning rather than a week twice. Thank you
This is my first time online course, affordable I never compare with any other course, thank you so much
I'm so happy with the teaching learning process. It's English teaching process is fantastic.
I'm so glad I took this course on shaw academy, my first class was awesome(extremely).
Pros
1. There's a free trial to convince you before financial commitment later on.
2. One is reminded about the time for lecture.
3. There's a chance to reschedule class.
4. Lectures are taken live which doesn't give room for some sort of malpractices to forward lecture and move to the end of the lecture in order to move to d next one just to get d certificate.
5. There's a certificate at d end of the course.
6. It's a great opportunity for someone like me who doesn't like long classes. Normally, my school lectures lasts for 2hours per lecture.
6. It's interactive, just like I'm in class but not as boring as school lectures though. During the lecture, we were asked a question which proved it was live.
7. There's an opportunity to replay.
8. Toolkits are available to get ahead of class.
Cons
1. The toolkits are for sale at first recognition, could have been free at first to let us know the quality of what we're paying for.
2. Since it is live, there should be an interaction between the students but we could only relate with a bot(that's Morpheus).
Aside those two cons, personally I think it's a perfect study platform because I had to rack my brain to notice those two cons I pointed out. Thank you.It has been a wonderful experience for me since the past week... By getting to know about Shaw Academy. More grease to your elbow. Thank you
Although this is my first class, I am more than happy with the instructor and the explanations. why I didn't give a higher rating has nothing to do with the class, it has to do with your support. I have replied to your emails and all i got back were replies from a computer. I will not restate my questions, if you are interested in finding out what they were, you can do so. I hope to enjoy the course but I can't have a warm and fuzzy feeling about a company that just uses AI to answer what I would consider a personal matter.
This is the second time in five years that i am taking a course @shawacademy. Quite a lot has changed since the first time around. Lectures are delivered way too fast therefore hard to grasp at once. The idea of taking an online course is to save time. Having to go through the recordings over and over isnt saving any time.shawacademy is one of the best places to learn all the same.
I am attending the Diploma in Leadership classes. Jonathan is very clear in his lectures, and gives relevant, real-life examples to elaborate on the material. The class notes (from the toolkit) are probably better value than the webinar notes, because there is enough time during the lecture to write the main points from each slide.
I have recently started taking the online class. It is fantastic how all topics are converted along with real life example. The classes can be rescheduled which is great. Although the lectures are a bit fast there is an access of playing the recorded classes.
Love the diploma in nutrition course.It is fast paced and yet Abby is covering all topics well.Her slides are very well prepared and so is the content.
Option of rewatching or rescheduling the recording is very helpfulPros: I’m only at my first module but I can say I learned a lot already and give me more knowledge as to modern marketing and why social media is so vital in todays any kind of business.
Cons: I wish I could say one but none so farI'm doing the project management course - I have worked in IT for many years so I am familiar with the concept of IT project management, but during this downtime I decided to formalise my knowledge with some proper training. I did some research into the various programs and I was looking for a freebie to test the quality before I committed to paying for the qualifications. I came across the Shaw Academy course and it looked like you get a lot of content for free. So I signed up and I haven't been disappointed, The content is great so far and really well delivered, and easy to understand. I would recommend this.
I'm just finished my module 1 today, I like it
I forgot to mention it that, this is my first online study , believed i would finished it
I am taking the Project Management course. I am only 3 lessons in but I am pleased with the content and delivery so far. The upsells are quite aggressive, and lack explanation of value. I honestly wouldn't be interested in reviewing them until after completing my first course. As I get more familiar with the program I may consider some of the paid features. I wish the Morpheus feature was more immediately interactive and not retroactively so, but I haven't had too many questions so it hasn't been a problem yet.
I started yesterday and completed my first class. It's an amazing platform to learn and classes are well organized. Lectures have clarity and an appropriate illustration to explain the particular topic.
PROS: I have just done my first lesson which was full of great information, and I am looking forward to the next one, but as others have said was too quick to take notes. I can obviously re watch the course which is good but will become time consuming if I have to rewatch every lesson.
CONS: I have a few complaints - I seem to receive 6 - 10 emails a day asking me to buy the toolkit, or reminding me that a lesson is coming up, and another 6 or so texts! This is overkill. One reminder should do the trick and the toolkit should be a part of the course - not a hidden cost.
I also do not like that I have to schedule in a time - this is learning from home and so should be flexible. If I have the time and inclination I should be able to do more or less in my own time frame. The classes are clearly prerecorded so stop with the "live " spin, it just ends up making you seem a little disingenuous.i have started trading course around 2 weeks ago and was totally new to the concept .shaw academys course teaching is so simple and easy to learn.all the steps are simple and explained properly which makes things easier for new comers ,i will definiely recommend shaw for eveyone who is willing to learn something new online.thanks
Everything was wonderful. The opening 'offer email', the choice of scheduling timings, the daily reminders and more reminders just before the start of the class etc. Also, I like the fact that the schedule time is on my own time zone and not at the USA / Europe time zone. The course content was simple and easy to grasp. Everything was just great!
Im doing 3 courses really great but false advertising as you advertising a monthly price for the course but the entire amount was taken out of my account
The blogging lecturer has someone else speaking in the background and it is very distracting
Other than that no issues

Regards RoscheallIt's a good way to spend time
Nice teachings,love it being recorded whereby one can review but I would have preferred the lesson more than twice in a week with more questions and answers.
Don't believe any of this. These reviews are fake and intended to bury the real ones on the first few pages. There are multiple cases of Shaw Academy scamming people by not allowing cancellation and taking charges for spurious reasons. You will likely regret giving them your card details, keep an eye on your statements. AVOID unless you enjoy being scammed
It's really good
We just having challenges on the fact that the classes go way too fast sometimes that you can't take notes. If you could just go a bit slower it would be superbI have attended my first class in digital marketing and I have no any questions and no any problem yet. I hope it will really helpful for starting my digital business , thank you so much to shaw academy
Great clear & consist teachers, relevant & accurate instruction, thorough content, and absolute convenience to study from anywhere, excellent affordability. Thanks Shaw!!
SCAMMERS
The courses might exist but this company's ethics are as dodgy as anything. Do not trust them with your bank details even for the free trial. The ten step web then phone cancellation process is ridiculous. And they don't leave you alone even once that is done. Ask yourself if this number of good reviews and replies on an obscure review site could be real, they are worthless, like any diploma from them would be. Don't just be wary, steer well clear.
SCAMMERSThese reviews are all fake. Only reviews before 17 Apr are real and all were negative. This company will rip you off. Difficult cancellations that they ignore and still charge you. Courses that are pre-recorded from years ago. Don't be another of their victims.
good but need improvement.
Today was my first class on photography. I have enrolled for the free photography online classes. Happy with the first class abd can't wait for the next class. The session was very informative and the best part is not even for a single moment i felt disconnected from the instructor.
This is the best till today i have attende many classes online.This company are fraudsters. The majority of the reviews and replies on here are fake. Do not give them your bank details.
I am very thankful for Shaw academy. I have enjoyed my class with photography. It’s easy and clear plus it’s also very helpful as we get the chance to choose our own class time. I have shared the good news to my friends and family.
Shaw Academy are SCAMMERS who will take unauthorised payments from your account. Don't trust reviews on here, be suspicious that there are so many of them. Stay safe
There is a team in Bangalore churning out these fake reviews and responses. Shaw Academy are not legit. It's a scam, its fraud. Avoid.
Yes I would buy here again.
This is my first online class, the lectures are well presented in an expository slides with real life examples to help you understand the topic.
The main issue I’ve with the lectures is that they’re too fast to make notes and the AI will always refer you to buy the tool kits if you ask a question during the class. I’ve enjoyed all the classes I’ve attended so far and I hope to complete the course.Its a great platform for students to learn as they explain in a very simple way so that it can be easily understand....it's first time i'm doing some online course as earlier i always prefer traditional method but now i came to know that online also we can learn in a better way.. just we need to find the best one like Shaw Academy....i just want to say thanks to SHAW ACADEMY...
Simply super but instead of slide presentations you can show some live examples and websites.
Simply super but instead of slide presentations you can show some live examples and websites.
I regret ever going near the fraudsters at Shaw Academy. Tricked into extra charges for single clicks on their website. They are flooding this website with fake reviews. Taking advantage of people reaching out for new skills during covid lockdown. Lowest of the low.
I am taking a Professional Diploma Course in Graphic Design and I am simply amazed by it. I have just finished my second session and I am motivated to continue. The facilitator has made it very simple and easy to grasp. Really grateful to be taking this course on Shawacademy.
Have been attending online classes and programs this is world class, keep soaring except for little issues of payment decline in purchasing my toolkits, just hope it wouldn't be the same for the e-certificate after each module or programs
I consider signing up to increase my photography. But people say more and more this is a filthy scam company out to rip my money. I read that reviews on this page and others are paid fake for the company. I would like safe learning for my camera
I finished my first week of Photoshop class. Was very interesting. I waiting for next week.
Shaw Academy are being widely accused of deceptive and fraudulent behaviour with regard to unauthorized taking of payments for cancelled accounts. It is recommended to cancel your bank card if they have your details.
I was disappointed in the quality of lesson and constant sales harrassment, like a cult. Then I saw these warnings. I have heeded them and contacted my bank fraud department. So my money is safe from their hands. I read that they take unauthorized payments after you have stopped looking
i enjoyed the class today, looking forward to the next class.
I am very glad my first online study was from well organized body as Shaw Academy. They're pure professionals determined to help humanity in spreading knowledge and Improving workforce through skills. Keep up the good work.
That’s a really good start for me. I’ll keep up until the end.
Am really grateful to ShawAcademy. Am enjoying this course and will represent Shaw in a great way as long as leadership is concerned. Will reach the end. Thanks.
am on my second week, everything is fine so far
I am very happy with my choice to do professional diploma in nutrition with shaw academy. I like the way of education that they are giving.
I give it to you Shaw Academy. I have attached lot of Online Schools, but I can attest to the fact that yours is so far matchless, quite educating, easy to comprehend, a lively experience, very clear and articulate voice. As the Delightful day remains yours, I also pray more Grace to your elbow.
Actually the course it's very interesting and I really enjoy it,by teaching, explaining, images that's help more to understand the whole course about,and I'm so excited and ready to finish this course successfully. An special thank to Mis. Annerie du Plessis
I am very happy to attend this course today as a beginner. The class was so impactful helpful also, i gain a lot in less than an hour and i can't wait to finish the course and start implementing in my business. Also thanks to shawacademy and my lecturer Kate Savage.
Please I need my refund, I cancelled subscriptions about 6 months ago, and they started charging me last month again, also charged me this month too. This guys are scammers,
Director
I am finding the courses informative, insightful leading to reflection and personal growth.
Interesting to see how many traits I have possess just need unlocking realising these traits are very beneficial tools
ThanksNo
It's an amazing application as soon as best learning app with free of cost. Teaching process is simple and interesting for learner or beginner.
Photoshop course
It’s a really good web site to learn a new skill. Because the are all time sending you messages to remind that the class is going to start.
Excel and Trading & Financial Market courses
These courses are excellent. Clear and organized presentation, as well as emphasis on their practical uses. Highly recommend!
Nutrition
Great way to learn from home, the classes are super clear and keep you interested while you follow the instructor by taking note and replying the pop questions, material is easy to understand and the information given is super interesting; great and its only been one class... Can't wait for what is coming.
lightroom..health
love all the variety of classes that i can access anywhere. very easy to understand. also like the bonus sheets and class recap to print before class. thanks soo much for wonderful opportunities.
Free course through Verizon Wireless
I am taking a "free" nutrition class through Verizon Wireless; however it keeps trying to get me to spend money that I don't have to get the tool kit. I personally think if a course is to be Free, then it should be completely free with all resources included.
Photography module 1
So far so great. I almost completed the half of the module 1 which looks great. I still think that the price is high specially for students, However, I should say that the courses are well organized and I am learning more and more every week. Thanks ShawAcademy,
MohammadDigital marketing
Good start
Tool kit photography
Comprehensive material that is useful so I can refer to it over and over
