CDM Progress Report
Hi CDM Trainees,
This thread serves as progress reports for CDM Program.
We would love to hear how you are doing!
Each week, we would like you to reply to this thread answering the following three questions:
- Which discussion was the last you completed?
- What are some things you struggled with or didn't quite get right the first time around?
- What went well? Share some tips you find helpful to help others.
If you require support, please let us know and we'll reach out to you.
Submitted my article and it was approved. Practical electives are completed. Since there's still some time I'm awaiting the honors option to be issued to me. I feel like this course has really made me even more comfortable and confident in doing online courses. My advice is always self advocate and if you're in need or there's a problem always reach out.
Hi, @ThoughtLight
Yayy, congratulations on getting your article approved and completing the practical electives! You should be super proud.
You can find the honours options here:

You share great tips as always! Thank you for being consistent in posting these weekly forum progress reports. 💙 Always good to hear from you.
I have now submitted my article and received approval and some needed complements. Same with my practical electives. Since there is a little chunk of time until the end date I've submitted to do the honors assignment. I very suddenly lost a person who has been in my life forever yesterday, but she would want me to go for the best despite everything. My advice this week is to cherish every second and take the advice at the beginning of the course and save your assignment responses. Google Docs is fantastic for it and well organized.
@ThoughtLight
Good job, ThoughtLight, and sorry for your loss
@walkalot thank you. I've been thinking about which academy program I'm going to take next. I have two in mind. Once the calamity slows down.
@ThoughtLight
take your time. Hopefully your calamity is not great
@walkalot I won't get into anything until after the funeral. 7 cups have been my biggest source of support. It has my loyalty. I decided on the Quality Listener program though. It will be a good source of distraction once all that is over.
@ouiCherie
I completed my last discussion, the Coursework Part II Participation Report Form and the Coursework Completion Quiz. Now, I'm all ready to move on to the practical components.
@ouiCherie
This week I finished lessons from 4 to 8 and it wasn't much hard. I liked how it made me think more deeply and develop new skills when it comes to writing content. This week I plan on finishing all lessons. How is everyone else doing?
@ouiCherie
i have done up to lesson 9, I know I'm a tad behind, its cookie season and I am so exhausted 🥺
but I love this course so much!
@Bunnylovesyou don’t worry. you’re doing great. btw what’s cookie season
@walkalot
so basically in America, and im a girl scout, so I gotta stand outside and sell cookies for hours everyday
@Bunnylovesyou
Got it. Hope it goes well and you sell a lot of cookies.

Have finished the CDM course. Sent my final form in a few days ago now. I absolutely loved the course and learned things of value on and off 7 cups. This course has even directed to me to make a selection of certain professional writing courses in college. The only part I struggled with was not getting to do the honors option. But there was a close family member who passed away and time was running short. My advice for this course is to take notes, save your responses in a special place because you will need them again, and if you have a problem approach a mentor. They are all great and are understanding. I look forward to writing more articles. And I would love to become a CDM academy mentor if they are looking. I don't want to leave the course.
@ThoughtLight So sorry for your loss.
It has been great to read all your posts and see your progress, I am trying to catch your heels lol!
@CocoaCassie thank you. Keeping busy is the best way in these times for me. I'm thinking of my next CDM course now.
@ouiCherie
- Which discussion was the last you completed?
Number 12, I have submitted my titles too. - What are some things you struggled with or didn't quite get right the first time around?
I have been unwell and struggled to find time to participate. - What went well? Share some tips you find helpful to help others.
It is very interesting but I do wonder who checks all the content as when something is posted here it is taken as truth.
@CocoaCassie
The mentors check the assignments. For example, I check the first 4.
@ouiCherie
I am looking foward to writing and submitting my first article
@ouiCherie
- Which discussion was the last you completed? I submitted an article topic
- What are some things you struggled with or didn't quite get right the first time around? I had to prolong my program due to some personal issues and I am happy that I can continue now :)
- What went well? Share some tips you find helpful to help others. The selection of the topic and the research is so insightful and interesting.
I'm doing OK everything went
