Yes! Every video in every module has had captions uploaded manually, no need to ask.
I'm an experienced OBM practitioner and/or have had graduate coursework in OBM previously. Should I take this course?
Probably not! This course was designed to fill the basic foundational education gap in OBM, so you likely will not learn anything new here. I would encourage you to check out some of our other offerings instead.
Is the program mobile-friendly?
Yes! Even though there is not a mobile app, Motivate U is responsive in your mobile web browser, so you don't need to install anything on your phone to take our courses on the go.
Why is it so inexpensive?
We know, we get this question often. Similar programs in OBM run into the multiple hundreds of dollars, and thousands for grad programs. However, our greater mission to improve the world at work means decreasing as many barriers to accessing high-quality OBM education as we possibly can. If that means not making a huge amount off our students, then we will continue to live happily and humbly doing so.
