What’s included in this course?

You will be able to partake in 9 two-hour live Zoom sessions with Jonathan and your classmates. Each week's session will be recorded. You will also get access to workbooks that accompany each week's lesson.
How much does it cost?

The course is $999 when paid in full. You can also pay-as-you-go for $111 per week. Those who sign up for the full course will receive a promo code for $111 off that they can use and share with others.
What’s your refund policy?

If your mind is not blown at least once and you don’t have a working website by the end of the course, your entire tuition will be refunded.
How long will the course be?

The course will be 9 weeks. Each week we will meet live at 11:11am CST until 1:11pm including a 30-minute lunch break.
Do you offer a certificate?

Not yet! However, by the end of the course you will have a fully-designed brand and website that you can use as a portfolio.
Is it online or in-person?

It is online. We'll meet every Saturday from 11:11am CST to 1:11pm CST for nine weeks.
Are the sessions recorded?

Yes. The recordings will be made available within 48 hours of the live class.
How is this different from other online courses?

Most college courses do not offer the unique combination of design, branding, online marketing, and entrepreneurship offered in this course. This course pulls the top content from Jonathan's several college-level courses he has taught over the past 10+ years. Also, this course is interactive. Each will will include an assignment to be completed by the following week. Lastly, this is a live class where you'll get to interact with Jonathan and fellow students in break out rooms.
How much time should I dedicate to the workshop each week?

This is entirely up to you. However, you will receive “homework” to work on between the calls, which should take a minimum of 30 minutes. You may find that you could easily put several hours into any stage of the process.
What level of experience is needed for this course?

None! Whether you're thinking about starting a business or you already have a thriving business that you want to take to the next level, there is something for everybody. If you can browse the Web and use Google Docs, you should have what it takes.
What are Jon's credentials?

Jon has taught over 300 students from both his 10 years of experience as a college design instructor and 5 years of experience as a high school design instructor. He has also run a full-time online creative agency for 10 years and has built sites for clients in practically every major industry. He earned a BA in Digital Arts & Animation at the University of Silicon Valley and is now enrolled in an online Masters of Professional Studies in UX Design at the Maryland Institute College of Art.
Are there any additional resources provided?

Yes! Each week I’ll be linking to dozens of external resources and tools to assist with your journey.
Do you offer one-on-one training?

Yes! Jonathan will be available for two 15-minute one-on-one sessions for everyone who signs up for the full course.
How do I access the workshop materials?

You will receive a direct link via email or you can visit the main site and click “Online Workshop”. You will need to log in to access the contents.
What kind of computer do I need?

You could technically do the majority of the work from a Smartphone or Tablet, as most resources we will be using are free and browser-based. However, using a laptop or desktop would be ideal, whether Mac, Windows, or Linux. However, if you want to use Adobe's programs, you will need Mac or Windows. We will be using Adobe alternatives though.
