6 weeks into my first ID role, I just rewatched this video, that kicked off my journey from K-12 educator to ID. I can say that I followed all the steps Devlin suggests with great success. It was a lot of work including 5 am mornings practicing Storyline before work or listening to videos while running and it was all worth it. There is still content I have not touched to date (Adobe XD or Mayer's principles), however most everything Devlin refers to has come my way in the last 6 months. And now, having settled into my first ID job, I am reengaging with the channel to continue learning and feed my excitement about ID. Thanks Devlin, for all you do.

Hi Susann Schecker! Thank you for posting this comment, it is very inspiring. I am currently in education (elem. SPED) and the burnout is very real. I am so glad to read your comment. I am just starting to think about ID and making my action plan to take steps to learn and transition to a new career. Did you remain in education until you were offered a position? I will have to go corporate or government, as I carry my children on my insurance. Thanks! Amy

Thank you so much, Devlin! Your videos helped me prepare myself for my interview. I just received the news that I got the role! I'm very excited to transition from a product trainer to an instructional designer.

I've been teaching scuba diving, EMS, CPR, First Aid, AED for 13 years in my business. My primary career has been in the clinical medical field and I've worked from home for 5 years (pre-COVID WFH generation!) I can't believe it took so long to discover instructional design and the huuuuge need for it across all sectors. Coupled with CV-19 and how it was instrumental in the way content is now primarily delivered, this is a huge breakout opportunity. I'm now starting my 2nd masters degree in ID next month and watching everything you've got which has been incredibly informative, really helped me to plan out my goals, next steps, etc. Your content is excellent. Thank you very much for providing so much (and for free!)

You've managed to answer a lot of questions that I've had rattling around my head around a move into this field, and in less than half an hour! Great video, succint advice, thank you very much!

Of course! Thanks for the positive feedback, as always.

I come to ID in the same way I have come to most of my "topside gigs". I am a musician, playing many popular styles with a degree in Theory and Composition. Given the income variances in music, I have always had a foot in my day job. Starting as a grant writer (B.A. in Eng Lit- another great career move), I started doing client interface design for a software program on a grant that I wrote and was funded. Eventually, I became the program expert and wrote many training pieces in Adobe Captivate. I found the process very rewarding, but didn't know there was a field related to it. Then something came into my email of a job interest looking for an ID. After looking at what the company wanted, I knew that I could do the job, but my skills were dated and being self=taught, full of gaps. I can't tell you how much your video has impacted my world. Thank you, thank you, thank you. - Butch

Thank you so much Dev for the video. So far I have been thinking and studying a lot about VAK and Kolb’s LS. I have certainly missed ADDIE, Gagne’s 9 events, Action mapping, Mayer’s principle and the visual design. Thanks again for the insight.

My current role is bpo trainer and I am thinking of applying the position but I am still hesitant to apply coz i feel like i still lack some skills. But I watched your video and i think I'll go ahead and apply. Thank you for sharing your pro tips and tricks

Amazing Video!!! Gave me so much hope. I am a former (unemployed) graphic designer making a career shift.

I was an Instructional Designer in San Francisco back in 2000 when it was new and nobody knew what it was. Then there was 911 and the attendance of the school I was working for dropped, and they let most the designers go in order to save money, and ended up getting a plug and play platform (Prometheus then eCollege). The next year (2002) the designers were scaled back again and I was also laid off. Instead of seeking further employment in the field I decided to travel. Maybe not the best career move, but I had an interesting life as a result. Every now and then I'd apply for an instructional design job, but as there is more formal training now and I didn't have a degree in it, I was eliminated in the first or second round of interviews. Your video was my first good look at what it is going to require to get back in the game. The salary it seems, adjusting for inflation, hasn't changed much. Since I haven't paid off the loan for my initial Master's in education I'm not going to get a second Master's in it. Not at that salary level anyway. It was good to hear that you don't really have to. After Covid I think the field will grow, but I also think that with the plethora of tools available now a lot of people, schools, and companies are just going to do it alone without a team of Instructional Designers like back in the day. Maybe I'm wrong but either way I hope to get enough understanding of what is happening now to re-enter as an independent consultant and help schools and businesses with their online learning implementation or their RFP rather than as an Instructional Designer per se. But your video has given me a road map to follow to update my skill set and understanding of what it means now to be an Instructional Designer. So thanks.
