Having a real human read instead of AI would be more relatable. Having captions automatically on, not needing to click CC on every slide would be helpful too. Having video instead of stock photos would be more engaging.
Very Informative

Videos were boring and nonengaging. Should have text options instead
Informative videos that are easy to follow. The test felt fair based on what was covered in the modules.
The course was very simple yet informative, and there were small tests between some slides.
Overall great training within this archaic structure. Graphics, audio and visual learning, and some questions before the exam I thought helped highlight the key pieces and support my understanding of the content.
I wish the interface was a bit more user-friendly (multiple times I had to restart a module when I tried to advance to the next). I wish the Closed Captions setting would remain the same throughout all modules, instead of resetting every module. It was also annoying that the “Module Complete” notification popped up in front of the “Next Module” button. It meant for every module I needed to click the “X” on the pop up before advancing – super annoying with the number of modules.
