(i) How did you first come across Alison?

I first came across Alison while reading an article on Medium about free online learning platforms. The writer mentioned Alison as one of the top websites offering high-quality courses for free. I was immediately curious and clicked the link to explore more. As a Moroccan student looking to improve my skills without spending a lot of money, I found Alison to be the perfect solution. The platform looked professional, the course variety was impressive, and I decided to sign up right away. That’s how my journey with Alison started.

(ii) What did you study - list the courses and tell me why you studied those courses in particular - short explanation on each is fine.

Courses:

• The Role of Warehousing in Supply Chains.
• Warehouse Setup and Inventory Management.
• Order Processing and Key Performance Indicators (KPIs).
• First Interim Assessment.
• Logistics: Shipping, Dispatch, Returns, and Sustainable Transport.
• Warehouse Safety, Compliance, and Risk Management.
• Warehouse Cost and Workforce Management.
• Warehouse Technology and Automation.
• Integrating Warehousing Strategies for Peak Performance.

I studied the Diploma in Warehouse Management and Logistics on Alison. I chose this course because I’m currently studying Logistics (Agent Magasinier) at ISMTR Ait Melloul, a public institute in Morocco under the OFPPT. The course on Alison complemented my formal training perfectly and gave me a broader perspective on warehouse operations, safety standards, and inventory control systems

(iii) Biggest question – most important answer – how did learning on Alison help your career?

Although I have not yet received a formal certificate from Alison, the learning experience itself has already made a significant impact on my career and personal growth. As a Moroccan student balancing studies in Logistics (Agent Magasinier) at ISMTR Ait Melloul and a Master’s degree in Law at university, I have found Alison’s courses to be a valuable resource that complements my formal education.

The practical knowledge I gained from courses such as Warehouse Setup and Inventory Management and Warehouse Safety and Compliance has deepened my understanding of the field beyond what I learn in the classroom. This has helped me participate more actively during internships and temporary jobs, allowing me to apply real-world concepts with confidence.

Learning at my own pace on Alison has given me flexibility to study when I can, which is essential given my busy schedule. It also motivated me to keep improving and stay engaged with my career goals.

While I am still working toward completing the full diploma and obtaining the official certificate, the skills and insights I have gained so far have already increased my confidence and readiness to enter the job market in logistics.

I believe Alison is a great opportunity for students like me in Morocco who want to develop professionally without financial barriers, and I am committed to continuing my learning journey on this platform.

(iv) Finally, what advice would you give to others who have not yet found Alison – or have not found out about learning online for free?

Education in Morocco often limits students to strict streams. For example, someone who loves mathematics but doesn’t speak French well may not be able to choose the math stream. This happens in many other fields as well. But learning through the internet, especially platforms like Alison, breaks those barriers.

With Alison, you can learn whatever you want, whenever you want, without restrictions of language or school streams. The courses are flexible and open to everyone, no matter your background or location.

My advice is simple: don’t let the traditional education system limit your dreams. Explore free online learning, take control of your future, and build the skills you need. Platforms like Alison give you the chance to grow, succeed, and reach your goals on your own terms.

If you haven’t discovered Alison yet, now is the time to start. The knowledge is waiting for you.
