 Meet EdX Learner Cheryl. After working for the same company for 20 years, she was let go. For three months, Cheryl was on the job hunt for a new job. While job hunting, she came across EdX and the W3C's HTML5 course. This was exactly what she was looking for, and it greatly changed her outlook. She would job search for 10 hours a day, exercise and spend evenings taking the HTML5 course, but eventually life wore her down. Luckily, when she least expected it, she got called in for an interview as a web designer and was asked back for a second interview, and then she was offered the job. Taking the EdX course gave me the edge I needed to shine a little brighter and landed me the opportunity of a lifetime. I couldn't be happier.
