The courses on ELVTR are very educational, and easy to keep up with. I felt right at home with the classmates I learned along side with, and it was very easy to communicate. I recommend courses like these to anyone!

Within one minute of asking for more info (i e. Price) I was BOMBARDED by 2 phone calls (I had specifically asked NOT to be contacted by phone) three emails and two whatsapp messages. Good job about exemplifying how to put off people. I had to block them. Unprofessional , invasive and off putting.

Taking the Gallery Management course with Andrew Wingert through ELVTR was a thoroughly enriching experience. As a gallery director focused on building infrastructure and scaling operations, I found the multi-week format to be thoughtfully designed, with each session building on the last in a way that felt both practical and immediately applicable.

Andrew presented the material in an orderly and timely fashion, offering real-time examples, frameworks, and professional insight that reflected both industry trends and lived experience. He was consistently knowledgeable, approachable, and generous with his perspective. The guest speakers added a valuable layer to the learning experience—each one brought a unique and engaging viewpoint that complemented the core curriculum.

The assignments were especially impactful, aligning closely with the work I’m doing in my current role. They challenged me to think critically, refine my strategies, and push forward actionable ideas for growth.

Special thanks to Mariana Aldavaz, the program manager, who was always responsive and solution-oriented. Her support ensured that the online learning platform ran smoothly and that participants stayed connected and supported.

I walked away from this course with a stronger professional network, a wealth of actionable tools, and a renewed sense of clarity around gallery operations and leadership. I highly recommend this course to aspiring and current art professionals looking to deepen their expertise and elevate their practice.

I really enjoyed ELVTR's AI/ML in Financial Services course! I love that it's built around hands-on projects, training ML models on real data for common business uses like fraud detection and forecasting. The coding assignments are easy to learn but hard to master, approachable to beginners while inviting deeper exploration for more technical students. They grow your skills in Data Science tools (Python, pandas, sklearn) and the model development life cycle. Building a GPT chatbot was fun and creative. Classes are interactive and encourage questions and conversation. Paul Davis and James Gearheart are great instructors with deep background in data science and a valuable industry perspective. The office hours and 1:1 conversations are a great opportunity to chat about how to apply what you're learning in your own career!

My experience with ELVTR's AI in Supply Chain Management certification program was exceptional. The platform provided a comprehensive, well-structured learning environment that successfully bridged theoretical concepts with practical applications.
The instructors demonstrated exceptional expertise and real-world experience. Guest speakers from companies like One Network enriched the learning experience with industry perspectives that complemented the core curriculum.
The skills and knowledge gained through ELVTR have already proven valuable in my role as supply chain manager. The certification has positioned me to lead AI implementation initiatives within my organization and has provided a competitive advantage in the rapidly evolving supply chain landscape. Highly recommended for any supply chain professional aiming to lead in the digital era.

The experience was elevated by Tom's vast experience in the field able to pass down the knowledge that made it quick yet simple to take in I never felt overwhelmed. Made a ton of networking connections with the other students that turn into a good community of people
Which I hope will continue.

Adrian Ropp's Game Writer course has allowed me to acquire skills and industry practices that aren't available many other places. With nice staff and a dedicated team, ELVTR is a great place for additional education.

High pressure marketing and an underwhelming course experience. 2K is a lo0t of money and you only find that out during a phone call. Very disappointing course delivery, disorganised and poorly thought through.

This course was so valuable to me to understand how I could transition my existing skills into the narratie design industry. It gave me a good picture of the production process, where narrative design fits, and the expectations around what kinds of things a narrative desiger or games writer needs to do and what skills they need to have. It's helped me begin putting my portfolio together in a way that I couldn't have on my own. It's also a great networking opportinity; I've made a lot of great friends and met new collaborators. Working with them even after the class has been over has kept me motivated and working on my game writing projects.

The class truly was a great survey and coverage of the tools and techniques of comic book artist craft. Layouts, pencilling, inking, coloring, layout, backgrounds, and realities of the current comic book business were revealed.Experienced and interested instructor- Tom Feister. Tom brought in many knowledgeable guests to further enrich our understanding of how DEEP comic book craft really is!

Adam provided excellent insight into the realities of the games industry, drawing on years of hands-on experience with AAA titles. The course was well-structured, combining narrative theory with practical assignments that mirrored real-world scenarios. One of the standout aspects was the focus on teamwork—collaborative exercises and writers' rooms, which helped simulate the kind of cross-disciplinary communication that’s critical in the industry. Overall, an invaluable course for anyone serious about breaking into game writing or narrative design.

I took the "Become a Book Editor" course with ELVTR between April and May 2025, and in a year where I’ve committed to investing in myself, it stands out as one of the best decisions I’ve made, from every possible angle.

Not only did I deepen my understanding of subjects I love — books, reading, writing, editing, and the magic of words — but I also connected with incredible, friendly, like-minded individuals who genuinely enjoy geeking out over the same things.

Learning from one of the industry’s finest, Francisco Vilhena, was an absolute privilege. He was incredibly down-to-earth, candid, generous with his insights, and always willing to help. I especially appreciated how approachable and accessible he was — not only during the course but also beyond it.

Surprisingly (or maybe not!), I enjoyed the assignments too. They were engaging, thoughtfully crafted, and focused on topics I’m genuinely passionate about, which made the learning process enjoyable and enriching.

Another standout aspect was hearing from other prominent industry experts. Their insights into their careers and their perspectives on breaking into the field were both inspiring and eye-opening.

The supporting materials and resources provided throughout the course were also top-notch — practical, explicit, and valuable for both learning and reference.

From start to finish, the entire experience was brilliant. I honestly can’t recommend this course enough. Whether you’re someone who loves reading and writing or you're aiming to pursue a career in the publishing industry, there’s something in this course for everyone. As someone who does copywriting as part of their job, I found it incredibly valuable from that perspective too.

I was genuinely sad when the course came to an end — a sentiment shared by many of my coursemates. Thankfully, we’ve stayed connected in some form, which has been a fantastic bonus.

If you're going to invest in anything this year, make it this course. It’s worth every penny.

Adam gave amazing and precise advise and guidance all throughout the course. My concern going in was that the session would be fun but ultimately vague with minimal directly practical advice. This was not the case at all, Adam and Kwan were a wealth of information about both the indie and triple-A sectors and the people I met on the course were delightful and helpful.

I haven't had a chance to use what I've learned yet, but my course was so informative, the teacher (Adam) was incredibly approachable and available for questions and help, and I had so much fun learning alongside so many others!

Daniela was very courteous, understanding, and promptly responsive. The opportunity offered went about as I expected, which was disappointing, but her efficiency helped swallow the bitter news. Thank you again!

This course has been invaluable for me. As an experienced static graphic designer, I have been wanting to add motion into my work for a while now and have never managed to grasp it alone, but with Brendan’s help, he has given me the confidence to take my work to a different level. Such a well planned and supportive course with a great community. 100% worth every penny!

This class was a very worthwhile experience, and I am very grateful to Sabina and Jacob for ensuring the class was smooth sailing, especially for those like myself who are balancing their current job with the course workload. I also want to extend my appreciation most of all to Ivy for believing in my abilities and giving me her recommendation, on top of her wonderful teaching skills and well-thought-out curriculum. I have come away from this course with a newfound passion for UX/UI and optimization designed for gamers' unique, individual needs.

Course Instructer: Julia Wallace
ELVTR Liaison: Marianna Aldavaz

I took this course from 04/10 - 05/22 and I enjoyed my experience. Julia was a wonderful instructor and her notes were very thorough. She was also active in the Discord server. Marianna was also amazing, answering questions in a timely manner and forwarding links for articles in class.

The only thing that kept it getting a full 5 stars was the lack of examples for homework, particularly in formatting, for those of us diving headfirst into the industry with zero experience.

All in all, it was a great time. I made some new friends and there are no regrets here. Would recommend to others.

The UX/UI for Gaming course by Ivy Sang was amazing! She is so kind and thoughtful throughout the entire course, creating multiple times and areas in the lectures for questions we might have. I loved her course and the whole ELVTR team throughout my journey into UX/UI for Gaming. Thank you again Ivy, and I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND this course to anyone trying to step into the Gaming Industry through UX design or UI Art.

The team at Elevtr are attentive, professional, and accommodating. The course itself I took, become a game writer with Adam Dolin, was superb, with insider knowledge and technical skill application joining a steady guiding hand to our writing. Our class program manager Sabina was terrific and always reached out to us to help and check in.
