PESI

This app is so limited in it’s function that it’s practically useless for anything other than using your i-device as a monitor for the trainings and it’s barely any good at that. There’s no option for split screen use so you can’t take notes on your iPad at the same time as you’re trying to learn. There’s no Picture in Picture so you can do the same or research something being discussed like a recommended book or website. The app itself only functions in portrait mode until you start a video making an iPad app completely disfunctional, because even when you start the video it always starts in portrait and mini. It has to be forced into full-screen mode to start working in landscape. I’ve had the download option erase the content by itself multiple times. You can’t search or purchase trainings from the app. The fact that I need it because PESI is one of the largest training providers makes me angry every time I open it. I’d rather it be a paid app and be good than free and feel like it’s actually hindering my learning as much as it’s helping.

PESI has great digital seminars and online courses and tons of sales that make these courses very accessible to therapists. The app works great, is very visibly appealing, and allows easy viewing of videos and other course materials/handouts. The app even allows you to download training videos for offline viewing which is invaluable. The only reason for my rating this app 4 instead of 5 stars, is that you do not have the ability to delete online courses or seminars. Because PESI offers a lot of free live trainings during their sales, it you sign up for some that you miss or later decide not to do, you are unable to delete them and it makes your dashboard incredibly cluttered and visibly to scroll through the long list of courses to find the ones you are working on, as the ones you already have completed and the free live expired courses are all on the same list. Please add a feature to delete courses or sort them into different drop downs/areas on the dashboard by active, completed, and expired.

Pesi is my constant companion as a student of therapy, to say what they offer is a blessing is an understatement it is an incomparable resource for continued learning and professional development. I am a committed customer. I continue to recommend Pesi to all I know and promote the organization on all my social platforms. To the person or persons who saw the need for these digital, live webinars that are made available on demand I thank you because of Pesi I continue to grow and expand my academic , personal and professional development in ways I never imagined!! A zillion thanks.
