Customer Testimonials

These courses are well-prepared, thought out, and presented. There are always lots of ideas that you can put to use right away!!!!

This training was really helpful to me. I do have a child that has these characteristics and I think I have a better understanding on how to work with them.

Excellent material with very useful practical ideas that I can’t wait to try with the children in my class!

Reasonably priced, much more interesting and informative than the ones the state has recommended in the past, while remaining easy to understand. I have already recommended Bright Minds Training to all the teachers I work with.

This was such a great class. easy to navigate. short and to the point. GREAT ideas I will definitely use. Best and most interesting class I’ve taken in a long time!

To let you know that you are doing a superb job in your training and your materials! You keep the trainings interesting, and I have a more willingness to learn! Good voice projection too–I can’t stand a monotone voice, especially when one reads to me.

The material was very straightforward, and really seemed to fit with my classroom experiences. I like having little bits to read and think on for each page. It was very helpful and well presented, not stiff or informal. It really gave me a lot of useful information that will hopefully help me and my classroom in the future. Thank you!!

Best self paced training I’ve done and I’ve completed over 100 hours of other self-paced training.

I think I learned a lot that I will end up using in the classroom and I wasn’t distracted or bored once

Always enjoy the content, easy to understand and stay interested and always able to take something helpful out of it to incorporate in classroom.

The lessons are clear and easy to follow, as well as concise. They provide lots if important information in a clear manner.

I love these courses. They are loaded with wonderful ideas to use in the classroom. I also love the format and actually enjoy what I am learning.

I have received a high level of education (BA, MA and Ph.D.) in fields associated with ECE. I am working as a teacher in a preschool room, which I have done over the past 5 years. To be honest, most of the training I do to fulfill my CEUs end up being a review and don’t necessarily teach me anything or give me ideas. I loved this course and its simplicity. Despite being simple, I was made clear of some important distinctions between math, manipulatives and block learning areas and the course stimulated many great ideas for me to use in my class. Excellent job designing the course! Thanks!

Self-paced is my favorite way to take training courses. I am able to go at my own speed and fit it into my schedule easier. The material I learned is helpful and I will be using it at work. Every time I take a course from Bright Minds I always end with learning something that helps with my teaching to keep it fresh with new ideas.

Any class I have taken from Bright minds I walk away with more knowledge and abilities to try new things in the classroom. Which is exactly what training hours should produce. Useful information. I prefer this site over any other site offered.

I have been in the field of childcare for a decade and never feel like I learn anything useful from trainings, but this training provided many new activities and ideas.

I love the format of a both written and listening course. The sharing of books on the different subjects are great. I love how clear the information was given. Always good courses at Bright Minds.

Bright Minds has an easy to access website, the courses have good information. I appreciate the words written out as well as spoken. Each page is easy to navigate, I enjoy the videos.

It was well organized, very thorough, provided great example and had very key and prevalent information about individuals with Autism.

Very clear, very understandable. Will use these strategies for our staff at our next PD session and will suggest to my supervisor that staff also take the course.

I love the trainings here, the variety, the cost, the way they teach, and all of the other things Bright Minds Training offers like Curriculum and the resources and printables.

I felt like there were a lot of great ideas to improve writing/art centers as well as giving important reasons for doing this. I am adding some new materials to my center to make it not only more fun but help more with development.

These are the only training with resources and tips/not the monotone dragged out courses usually available online.

I love the way that the quizzes are used to reinforce the lesson content. I have so often encountered testing that is designed to “trick” and not teach. It feels like Bright Minds is really passionate about teaching to benefit the child and not to “Outsmart” the teacher! How truly refreshing.

This course was really relevant to my every day in the early childhood field. I actually feel like I’m going to recommend this one to use during a staff meeting.

Thank you for doing such a great job in your resources to help us become the best we can be in our profession. You do a great job. Thank you

Straight to the point training without a lot of fluff. Makes it easy to complete and the information is practical, not a bunch of extra content that I will never use.

I have already done three trainings on this site. I loved each and everyone. They are so clear, not boring, and are informative.

I have been on the fence and unsure of myself in talking to parents with concerns. This course has made me more confident in bringing up concerns with parents or guardians.

Out of all of the trainings I have taken online, this format has by far been the best to use. It is accessible for all types of learners! I loved the option for auditory support while having visuals.

I really love ALL courses I have taken from Bright Minds. I always learn a lot and the information is relevant on all levels. Additionally, the resource materials are great.

I’m so thankful for how much this course kept my attention! Usually, I struggle with these trainings. I will definitely be coming back here to do more of them!

It is MUCH easier to take classes from here than my state licensing department! Your website is easy to use, I know my credits will get to my home state and I don’t worry about losing a course if I don’t finish it all in one sitting. Your classes are interesting and cover a lot of topics. I know I can get immediate help if I have a problem. Thank you for all this!

I’ve completed my annual required training quickly and simply. It was lovely to find clear, reasonably priced online material that I could search to focus on classes to sharpen my newer appointment to a preschool classroom. I felt reassured that I do have a good handle on what I need to know and be doing to enrich the young children in my care.

I definitely like how it was set up. I like the option of just reading it yourself or listening to it yourself or both reading and listening at the same time. For someone who has a problem just reading, the listening and reading OPTION was very helpful. The information provided was excellent. I love the part at the end with the moms perspective. Very well done.

I love the easy to understand information and the great resources! I really like the listening option too. Great variety of classes to choose from so I have many more I am interested in taking.

This was the best training I have had in a long time. I was impressed at the information and how it was introduced.

So much good stuff explained in detail and easy to understand with great tips and ideas.

I absolutely LOVE Bright Minds Trainings and how they are presented. They are easy to understand and informative for childcare workers. They make taking the course encouraging and not a struggle to understand the system or to operate the modules.

Classes are a reasonable length and very engaging. I learn or am reminded of ideas and techniques every time I am here. Thank you so much for making it enjoyable and useful for my teaching practice. It’s fantastic.

I left the training feeling confident in my ability to implement changes in my classroom and I now have more tools I will need to implement some of those changes.

The training was painless. It was very informative, and the colorful pictures kept my attention the whole time. It was spread out nicely and was easy to read.

I found the information very useful in preparing children for kindergarten.

The course was very informative. I was able to do the course at my own pace. I enjoyed listening to her read the information to me.

Loved everything about this course and how you can read it or listen.

I love these trainings they are very informative and to the point. We’re busy people. 🙂

The presenter is knowledgeable and motivating and brief, to the point.

The amount of visual aids and examples that were included helped keep my attention. The videos used helped to illustrate ideas for not only books but ways to incorporate movement or additional songs to use in my own class.

The course was clear and easy to follow and navigate. It gave lots of interesting perspective to different ways of teaching.

This was much more interesting and helpful than any other training I have taken in the last 12 years of childcare. I don’t know why it took me so long to find these courses to take.

The course was well presented, offered options for different learning styles, and was very informative and relevant to my position. A great tool and resource.

Everything is very relevant, practical and accessible.

I love these courses I use them annually! Great material! Easy to follow and learn.

I love these courses. They are interesting and fun. Connie knows what childcare providers do every day and her teaching shows that! I learn so much from her courses.

The information presented in the training was easy to follow and is applicable to the learning level of the children that I work with. The activity suggestions in the course are also appropriate for my program. I plan to use several of the activities.

This course gave me so many new ideas and I am excited to implement in my Three-year-old class! I feel much more capable of succeeding in my efforts to teach.

Training is thorough but simple. Precise and exact for memorizing. It was very motivational for me and I am excited to go redo all my centers with all the great ideas from this course. I am excited for the kids with what I learned.

I loved how every section was explained and how you had the option to take Notes as well.

Every training session gives me new ideas and motivates me to introduce something different in my classroom. Thanks Connie for being a great coach.

I love these courses. They are chocked full of great information and useable material for my classroom. Also, they are engaging and pleasant.

By far one of the best classes I have taken. I believe because it was presented in a different way and more entertaining. I really wouldn’t want anything to change keep being AWESOME!

This training was unlike any other training I have taken on the subject through other sites. very informative, relatable and easy to understand.

Bright Minds Training shares valuable information that teachers can incorporate into their daily lesson plan. If a teacher wants to expand her lessons in music, art, science, handling emotions of toddlers, etc., Bright Minds Training has sound suggestions to increase students’ education and also take time to comfort and explain to students when there are negative comments and/or actions from other students.

I found this course very informative. I appreciated the explanations of the various issues related to SPD and how it affects our children. Also, there were excellent examples of practical ways of controlling some of the many sensory experiences you find in classroom environments.

I like how Connie gives all the different kinds of activities you can do with the children and books that can be read. It’s great being informed on things you can do with the kids that you wouldn’t think of. Thanks for the creative ways that deal with the class. I’ve taken another class from bright minds and I enjoyed that one also.

I have found that your trainings provide the most applicable tools for my work with children. Some training providers make me wonder if they’ve ever actually encountered a large classroom of children.

This gave me a clear cut way to handle hiring new staff and a plan on how to keep current quality staff and stop turn over.

I thought these resources and videos were way easier to follow along with than to boring state required ones. the lack of monotone voices and actual tips were helpful and great to learn through.

The training wasn’t boring and I took so many notes. I actually learned A LOT from this training and will recommend it to my director to have everyone take.

I loved that you had the choice to read or listen. I am dyslexic and a very slow reader and having this course read to me took a lot of added stress off of me during this course. Thank you so much.

I like that Connie has been in the childcare setting. It gives a more practical point of view that is relatable for providers.

These classes are well thought out and have good instructors. The information is easy to understand and gave me good ideas on new approaches, as well as games/learning activities I can incorporate into the classroom.

It was as fast paced as I wanted it to be, or as slow as I wanted it to be! That’s how I learn best! “At MY pace!”

Bright Minds is easy to follow, shares practical advice that can directly be used within a classroom, is engaging and provides a wide variety of trainings.

Very relevant and useful information with concrete suggestions on how to implement the information provided.

The course gave so many brainstorming ideas for art with children and explained why art is so important for little ones. Also, Connie was so helpful when I had issues accessing the course materials!! She was patient and very attentive to my needs. Will be using Bright Minds again!

I learned some valuable strategies for successful communication with parents and caregivers. I know that my knowledge of this subject increased tremendously through taking this course.

I enjoy being able to self pace, find the content clear and concise, and the topics are relevant to my needs.

This site gives not only explanations but also visual examples and shares useable resources. This helps me to better learn the content. It also does put emphasis on the facts more than once so I really remember and can refer back to the examples to answer questions and relate it to real life.

This was a very interesting course. It was presented in an interesting way. Connie’s presentation was fun, knowledgeable and very pleasant. I learned even more from this course and I have had my in home daycare for nearly 40 years. Thank you, Connie!

Bright Minds has practical information that is beneficial to me and the classroom. I always come away with an enriched feeling and golden nuggets of information to share with colleagues.

Bright Minds is very “user friendly”. When I did have a problem, Connie immediately answered my question and the problem was resolved immediately so I did not have to wait to continue my class. This was very much appreciated! I have just completed ten hours of training from Bright Minds during the last two days and it has been a pleasant and successful “marathon”! I enjoy all aspects of these courses and will be back soon!

I found the course to be educational but not boring. I liked the pace and the way it was presented so that different people with different learning styles can get better use from it.

Your training site is very interesting and easy to maneuver. This is the best learning site!! Great ideas and info. Thank you!

I feel the way the material is presented is assessable and very interesting. I enjoy the verbal and visual helps me a great deal. In addition, I am dyslexic, and I can follow along easily.

I LOVE these trainings! This was my favorite one so far! All the suggestions and ideas to get you started…I have a whole notebook list of ideas that build onto the suggestions!!!!!

I was able to focus on the information unlike other training sites that I find boring and repetitive.

These trainings are perfect for early learning staff that typically don’t have advanced degrees or certificates. The course content is easily explained and reaches a variety of course student ability and method of learning. It is also time effective for busy staff who don’t have a lot of professional development time and money resources to build skills to use with their small ones.

Bright Minds Training courses have been extremely relevant to my needs with regard to the classroom. They are easy to follow and listen to. I love that they present lot of take-home activities to use.

The information was detailed, but not overwhelming. There was a lot of practical advise that can be implemented in the classroom easily. The “why” for how to address anxiety was always explained. There were good visuals and resources.

I learned a lot of great things in a short amount of time and the course kept me very interested.

Trainings are high quality and practical. They offer concrete solutions and ideas I can put into practice immediately.

I loved that my course could pause when I needed to walk away and I could pick it back up right where I left off. The information in this course was perfect and exactly what I was looking for.

The trainings are very informative, organized, and leave you feeling with a sense that you really learned what you needed to learn.

Clear, concise & easy to follow! Challenging enough, not too overwhelming

Love this website! I love the instructors. I love the tech support and the ability to have answers as soon as I did to a problem that ended up being on my end. It is the perfect way to get trainings in for this mother of 3 who doesn’t have a lot of time! Thank you! Blessings.

The staff is amazing and SO helpful with questions or problems.

The Bright Minds training was easier to navigate than most training websites, the videos used were appropriate and not too lengthy, and my attention was engaged throughout the whole session.

Bright Minds Training did an incredible job not only teaching but providing ideas on how to implement what was taught. I also liked the parents input at the end. I also appreciated that these courses were more affordable than most.

I like the way the material is presented. It was helpful to have the pictures and videos to take a screen shot of rather than having to write all the ideas down myself. The videos were entertaining! The narration was pleasant. The material will be easy to transfer immediately to the classroom. Thank you for another great learning experience!

Website is easy to navigate through. Always concrete, practical ideas for the classroom. The photos and videos and helpful.

I really like the way pages move and are narrated. I enjoy the voice of the narrator. I feel I can understand the material since it is explained simply.

It was very informative and interactive which helps me remember things better than just listening to videos.

Courses are specific and interesting and credit is applied directly to my Registry account.

The information was applicable, offered ideas for implementation, covered in a systematic, organized way.

Bright minds has given me awesome ideas for the classroom that are practical and the kids love.

Great ideas that will be great tools to use in the classroom.

This training is more concise and gives more creative ideas than some of the other trainings I have taken.

I did learn good information and tools to use for children with anxiety and will be able to spot a child who may be suffering with this issue sooner.

I love everything about Bright Mind training! Easy to understand keeps your attention and you can pause the training if needed.

This was probably one the best trainings I have ever done. I was very informational and kept me engaged the whole time.

Site is easy to navigate Gives important info without extra fluff, you actually learn and retain info.

It was very helpful and provided insight on how to teach kids with various methods. I was pretty lost at how to teach numbers to kids before taking the assessment. It definitely helped.

Bright Minds Training promotes music and its positive effects on the development of children. It explains how important it is to stimulate the minds of young toddlers with a variety of music, instruments and incorporating different cultures within this context.
