Carina is the real deal

Carina is the real deal. She is a skilled educator with a passion for design and business. I have learned more with her in the past few years than any of the course I have previously taken from other because of the ability to get feedback and questions answered in a timely manner. When I was looking to pivot my business, this was exactly what I needed. I'm on the path that's right for me because of her program and now the University of Arts and Design.

I purchased Carina Gardner's Design Bootcamp…

I purchased the online Design Bootcamp and the Design Bootcamp Workbook. The online event was sold as 5-1hr live online sessions, with early access to Illustrator training. The website indicates purchasers will receive a Zoom link to the Live event. I did not receive the link, nor did I get access to Illustrator. In visiting the website, all of the links loop back to the sales pitch and there is no clear path to accessing content. I logged into my account but there was no account information and access to the items listed was denied. I contacted the customer service email but did not get a response. In addition, I don't recommend purchasing the workbook. It is a very large file and takes a lot of resources to download. A lot of flowery graphics and photos of Carina, but little in terms of usable content. If the purchaser is able access the video content, I recommend saving the $17, and taking your own notes. Overall a lot of hype and short on delivery. I found it to be a very disappointing experience and writing off the the loss of $54.
