Importance of learning online to replace formal degree seeking activities by Lolly Daskal and Matthew Brimer, founder of General Assembly, turning thinkers into creaters "Luckily for you, there are now a ton of educational resources and pathways to learn web design and hone your skills, available both online and offline, without the requirement of pursuing a traditional college degree. When hiring a designer, most employers today care about your portfolio over your resume, your creative talent over your GPA, and your ability to produce great work over the name brand of the school you attended."

Matthew Brimer helped found General Assembly which has a wide range of practical learning opportunities on-campus in NYC and online. Ranges from 8-12 week "immersives", courses, to one hour classes, etc. Doris will list in the WLC learning directory.
