Truly enjoyed how easy this was to navigate and learn from! It was very interactive!

Friedonline courses are easy to follow and are very interesting. I have learned alot taking these courses.

I have been looking for quick, but beneficial ways to further my teaching career, and this was just that!

This course definitely made me more aware of choosing appropriate and accessible design elements when creating resources.

This was perfect. The balance was there. I was able to access the information without roadblocks. Everyone who creates ANYTHING for children (and ADULTS!!!) should take this course!!

I love that this is so inclusive for students with multiple needs. I believe this should be required by all teachers with the world becoming high tech!

Go to friedonline.com and click the “Enroll Now” button. A pop up page will appear and with two joining options.

If you created an account by adding your information and creating a password (option #2), you can use the “Forgot your password?” function on the Login/Sign up page to reset your password.

If you used the SSO option (Google button and Google sign-in) to create your friEdOnline account, your login information is not stored in friEdOnline and you will NOT be able to use the “Forgot your password?” function. You will need to try logging in with the Google button.

If you have tried both options, you can email us at friedonline@fried.tech.

Great question! Our friEdOnline courses are:

on-demand (completed at your own pace...we love PD in PJs!)
interactive (you’ll be completing engaging tasks as you move through the course)
comprehensive (a full range of topic info and approaches are provided)
asynchronous (not live) learning experiences that you complete when and where you want. You will receive 1-12 hours credit for completing the courses.

Our Facilitated Online Learning Experiences (FOLĒ) combine digital, synchronous webinars, guided assignments via a FriEdOnline FOLE or Google Classroom and includes templates/assignments for extended learning. During a FOLĒ, you will attend live sessions with real, live PD providers who will walk you through the learning materials, more like traditional “live” PD (except not boring and horrible).
