"Never before has Disney Institute training been so readily available to individuals and organizations seeking to learn the Disney approach," said Jeff James, Vice President and General Manager, Disney Institute. "Through our innovative online-learning platform, both individuals and organizations now have access to world-class training in a variety of price points, course durations and learning modalities to suit many different budgets, professional-development needs and talent-development goals."
Disney Institute On-Demand Courses
Ranging from $49 to $199 per person, per course, new Disney Institute on-demand courses are an innovative, self-paced learning experience. Each course features multiple learning modules and a collection of engaging video presentations hosted by Disney Institute facilitators who draw upon their personal Disney leadership experience to bring learning to life. Courses also include downloadable reference materials and a personalized certificate of completion, which learners can print and frame as a keepsake to commemorate their achievement.
Each on-demand course takes approximately 45 minutes to 3.5 hours to complete, depending upon the topic and individual learner's pace. The online learning is flexible, allowing individuals to complete the course(s) on their own schedule, at their own pace. Learners can opt to view all course modules within a single day as one complete session or complete the modules individually, over time. Learners will retain access to each on-demand course for up to one year (365 days) from the date of purchase, meaning they can go back and review videos and learning materials whenever they need a knowledge refresher throughout the year.

Current Disney Institute Online Live Courses:
Previously, Disney Institute only offered in-person courses available onsite at Walt Disney World Resort in Florida and Disneyland Resort in California. The new online course format opens up a world of possibility for individuals who may not have previously had the time or budget to travel to a Disney destination to take an in-person Disney Institute course.
"Although we still hope to be able to offer in-person courses at a future date, it's clear right now that online learning has become the catalyst for driving interest and urgency in personal and professional growth," James said. "We're seeing strong demand for this offering and are hearing very positive feedback from those who have already taken the new online courses. We are thrilled to have this opportunity to reimagine what online learning can be."
