Mobile Internet Video Course

The Mobile Internet 101 course is included with the MIA membership at no extra cost. It's a simple course that basically orders our guides in the order we recommend approaching them. There are some short videos included with some topics, but they are filmed piecemeal over time and not necessarily to flow from one topic to the next.

If you're a self-paced reading based learner - that course may be perfectly suitable for you.

This video course however takes a different approach for visual learners. The video series was written & produced to flow together from one topic to the next, filmed over the course of a few days - designed to give you a foundation for selecting your right mobile internet setup.

This video course also includes quizzes, an assessment worksheet and private video sessions with our staff to answer questions.

We recommend this course for anyone just starting to approach their mobile internet setup, especially those that are more visual/audio learners than written.

This course is also the only way you'll get direct private access to our staff in video sessions - so if you prefer a bit more personalized assistance, this is the best method.

No - we firmly believe in our approach, that all of our mobile internet needs are varied. And the options are changing all the time.

This course is developed to help you understand your unique needs and the options out there. And then how to approach our content to select your right solution.

But via our private sessions and Q&A forum - we are here to help answer questions. But we can't do the work for you.

Indeed, the options are changing all of the time. We took a lot of care in developing this course so that the content is more high level and evergreen.

While we use specific equipment as examples in the course, they are best looked at as props - not the current products on the market.

Each video is related to content on our site, that we are constantly keeping up to date. So you'll be watching a video that give you a high level overview - and then following up with linked guides and our gear center to explore the latest and greatest.

And of course we regularly review this course - and if there are major shifts that make a chapter outdated, we will either re-film it or add links to content that you should be sure to follow-up with.

This course was filmed in late 2019, and last updated in April 2021 with some video updates (particularly around 5G and Starlink.)

The private sessions are limited to 15m at a time, and they are offered a few times a week. We have blocks of time available in the late morning, mid-evening and weekends to try to accommodate varying schedules - and they do need to be scheduled a couple days in advance so that we can have a team member available. So please don't expect them to be an 'on demand' service.

They are also not meant to be a replacement for taking the course.

Think of them more as teacher-student office hours, they are a complement to your own studies for a bit of extra assistance. We're more helping double check your homework, not doing your homework for you.

Book them as you're going through the content and not grasping a concept. Book them after you've put together a potential setup and want some feedback.

You're also welcome to utilize our member Q&A forums anytime, or join in on our regular member webinars.

This video course is a one-time enrollment fee, and you will retain access to it (and any updates we publish to the course) for as long as your MIA membership remains active.

The included private video sessions however are only included for the first 90-days of your enrollment.
