Where to Find Freelance Instructional Design Gigs - Ashley Chiasson, M.Ed

First hand experience from someone who has used multiple different sites and techniques to find freelance clients. I think the cold contacts really only works because she put in so much effort researching and targeting specific companies with customized messages; I doubt generic cold contacts would have done as much for her. Super fan-girling over here that @ChristyATucker linked to some of my posts! EEE! - Where to Find Freelance ID Gigs http://t.co/34hyGXDHz2

The 60-minute masters | Onlignment
This was created in 2007 as a quick course in designing e-learning for SMEs. While the fully developed versions of the course seem to no longer be available, the scripts are here so you could create your own version. New instructional designers may benefit from reading the scripts and envisioning how they could create a course.

Instructional Design and Technology | edX
Instructional Design and Technology "MicroMasters" through edX and UMUC. 4 courses, 8 weeks each, 4-6 hours per week. Around Free to try, $800 for verified credits. While I'm not sure how much hands on experience this program gives, it might be a good option for formal education for people looking for something less than a full masters program.

The Science of the Job Search, Part VII: You Only Need 50% of Job “Requirements” – TalentWorks
Job listings are descriptions of what they imagine the ideal candidate should have. Don't be afraid to apply to jobs because you can't check every single box. You can get interviews while meeting only about half the requirements.
<strong>You’re as likely to get a job interview m</strong><strong>eeting 50% of job requirements as meeting 90% of them.</strong>
You may have seen stories before about how women in particular&nbsp;<a href="https://hbr.org/2014/08/why-women-dont-apply-for-jobs-unless-theyre-100-qualified">don’t apply for jobs unless they’re 100% qualified</a>. We wondered if they were on to something – maybe there’s gender discrimination at play and hiring managers look for women to meet more of the requirements. Turns out,&nbsp;<strong>our findings apply just as much to women as to men</strong>, and actually, <strong>for women, the chances of getting an interview start increasing as soon as you meet 30% of requirements</strong>.
