How much time do I need to commit each week to Digital Course Academy?

That’s a great question! There really isn’t one set answer because every DCA student comes in with different circumstances and available time. What we can share is how the program is structured and how Porter (the suite of built-in AI tools) can make the journey smoother and faster.

DCA is an implementation program, which means you’ll be building real assets for your course as you go. The program is divided into two tracks, and the time commitment depends on where you’re starting from:

• Track 1: Your Start From Scratch Digital Course Track

  We suggest spending about 5–10 hours a week for 60 days. With Porter, students in Track 1 typically save 10–15 hours total over that 60 days by cutting down on brainstorming time, getting first drafts faster, and staying out of “second-guessing mode.”

  
  

• Track 2: Your Ready to Launch Digital Course Track

  We suggest spending about 5–10 hours a week for 90 days. With Porter, students in Track 2 typically save 25–35 hours total over that 90 days, since many of the bigger tasks (like webinar prep, course outlines emails, and slide decks) move much faster with this suite of AI tools and ready-to-go frameworks.

  
  

On average, it’ll still take about an hour to watch the video training lessons in each module, but Porter helps reduce the heavier implementation work so you can keep momentum without feeling overwhelmed.

And don’t forget, Amy also provides fill-in-the-blank templates and checklists throughout the lessons. Pairing those with Porter gives you a huge head start on things like emails, sales pages, and social posts.

The best part? You have lifetime access to the program, so you can always move at your own pace and come back to the material as life allows.
