Is this bootcamp right for you?

Honest fit matters more than enrollment.

We turn applicants away when the fit isn't right. Better that than a refund 12 months in. Read both columns before applying.

This is for you if
  • Teachers ready to translate classroom craft into corporate L&D or curriculum dev
  • Trainers and L&D specialists who want AI fluency to lead, not follow
  • Career-changers from communications, content, or program management
  • K-12 educators ready to move into curriculum design, scope & sequence, or publishing
  • You learn by building — not by watching videos

Don't enroll if
  • You're looking for a self-paced video library — this is live and project-driven
  • You want to skip portfolio work — every milestone here is a real artifact
  • You're not ready to apply to roles weekly through placement

What you'll build

A portfolio of real artifacts.

Not exercises. Not case studies. Real briefs from real partners — the same things you'll show in your first interview, or use to land your first customer.

01

Storyboarded e-learning module

A 20–30 minute interactive course built in Articulate Rise or Storyline, scoped from a real SME interview.

02

AI-narrated micro-learning series

A 5-part Synthesia or Vyond series, scripted, voiced, and assembled with AI workflows you'll use on the job day one.

03

Performance support job aid

A workflow-embedded reference designed for a real role — quick-reference card, decision tree, or in-app helper.

04

ILT facilitator guide + deck

A 90-minute instructor-led training kit: facilitator script, learner workbook, slide deck, post-session assessment.

05

Capstone — full learning program

End-to-end design: needs analysis, learning objectives, multi-modal curriculum, evaluation plan. Delivered to a real partner organization.

Curriculum · what you will learn

Learn. Build. Master. Land. One Performance-Based Learning Model.

Four phases shared across both tracks — built around the 24/7 Performance-Based Learning Model and our Agile ID Sprint process. Plus track-specific specialization in Months 3–5 (shown below the phases).

“I'd rate my learning experience a 9 out of 10. It's so much more hands-on than any experience I've had in higher education. You're diving into real projects from day one. I learn by doing, and I think everybody does, so that's exactly what made it work for me.”

AI fluency · in this role

AI fluency, applied to instructional design.

You'll graduate fluent in the workflows reshaping the field — not as a replacement for craft, but as a force multiplier on judgment.

01

Needs analysis, accelerated

Use AI to synthesize SME transcripts, scrape internal docs into learning maps, and surface gaps faster — so you spend more time on judgment, less on transcription.

02

Production, 10× faster

AI-narrated video, AI-generated practice items, AI-drafted scenarios. You'll produce in a week what used to take a quarter — without sacrificing instructional quality.

03

Quality control, human-led

The judgment moments — alignment to objectives, learner empathy, edge-case scenarios — stay yours. We train both halves, hard.

04

Tool-agnostic mastery

Move fluently across Articulate, Storyline, Synthesia, Figma, and the AI stack. The skill is the workflow, not the vendor — so you ship strong work regardless of which tools your client picked.

Real outcomes · in their words

No anonymous testimonials. No stock photos. These are 24/7 Superstars currently working in instructional design — speaking for themselves.

“Everything I wanted and more.”

I've finished my 90 days at the company! I love going to work everyday. It's such a wonderful change and I work with wonderful people! I've been given two products that I service. I work alongside tech writers and SMEs. I've also been given two extra projects — I'm working on a consultant training to help boost client engagement, and I'm testing an AI chatbot that's being incorporated into one of our loan servicing platforms. I've been tasked to "try to break it." I was voluntold to work on that bc they refer to me as "the prompt engineer." I believe that pulled that label straight from my resume haha.

“In my very first week at my new instructional design role, I was handed a client project to build from scratch. I used the analysis skills I learned at 24/7 Teach, and my manager was all praise. In the kickoff meeting, the client's subject matter expert said my document had everything he wanted to see and loved how I sequenced the content. I was able to add value from day one, and I have 24/7 Teach to thank for that.”

Common questions

Before you enroll.

The questions we answer most often on first calls. Answered here so your first call with us is a better one.

What is the 24/7 Teach Instructional Design Bootcamp?

The 24/7 Teach Instructional Design Bootcamp is a career-change program for educators, trainers, and L&D professionals, with two tracks: Instructional Design (corporate L&D, EdTech, training) and Curriculum Development (K-12, higher ed, publishing). Superstars build a five-project portfolio using AI-augmented workflows, receive 1:1 mentorship from working practitioners, and have placed at Apple, Google, Heggerty, McGraw Hill, and 200+ other employers. The Advanced tier carries a job-placement guarantee within 12 months or a full tuition refund.

Do I need a background in instructional design or curriculum development?

No. Most of our Superstars come from teaching, training, content, or program management. The bootcamp is built for career-changers — we meet you where you are.

How do I choose between the ID and CD tracks?

You don't have to choose on day one. The first two months are shared foundations — adult and youth learning theory, AI fluency, assessment design, learning sciences. You pick your track at the end of Foundations, after you've seen what each direction actually looks like. Admissions also helps you choose during the application call.

What software will I learn?

Articulate Rise + Storyline (the corporate ID standard), Synthesia + HeyGen for AI video, ElevenLabs for voice, Figma for visual design, and the AI workflow stack — ChatGPT, Claude, Copilot. Curriculum Developers also work in standards-alignment tools and unit-planning frameworks. Tool-agnostic mastery is the goal.

How does the Job Guarantee actually work?

Complete Advanced on time, attend every live session, submit every portfolio milestone, apply to a target list of roles each week through placement. If 12 months pass and you haven't been placed, we refund your tuition. Covers both tracks.

Is the portfolio enough to get hired?

It is the single biggest factor. The 5-project portfolio is built around real briefs from real partners — corporate SMEs for ID, district and publisher partners for CD. When you walk into an interview, you're showing real work, not exercises.

How are mentors matched?

Elevate and Advanced Superstars get 1:1 mentorship from working practitioners — average 12+ years industry experience, currently practicing in the field you're entering (corporate ID for ID-track Superstars, K-12 curriculum design for CD-track Superstars).

Can I keep my day job?

Absolutely. Essentials and Elevate are part-time (~6–7 hrs/week). Advanced has a 5-month full-time track and a 10-month part-time track (~10–12 hrs/week) for working professionals.
