My Online Learning Partner (MYOLP) is a membership program where you can learn from any and all of my video courses and eBooks for one low annual price.

New Video

I have a new video that explains a lot of the different membership options, perks, and commonly asked questions. Watch it here: Memberships Explained

What's Included?

When you join MYOLP, you get access to ALL of the standard course video tutorials and PDF handbooks in your membership level that are currently available. Please check my Course Outline for a complete list of available courses.

My most popular course offering is Microsoft Access, but this membership type includes ALL of my topics including Word, Excel, and lots more. So if you want a well-rounded education, this is the membership type for you.

What are Membership Levels?

There are four different membership levels: Beginner, Expert, Developer, and Developer Plus!

• The Beginner level includes all Beginner courses from all topics.
• The Expert level includes all Beginner & Expert courses, plus some Seminars & Templates.
• The Developer level includes all Beginner, Expert, Advanced, & Developer courses, plus some additional Seminars. Developer membership also includes a Silver level TechHelp membership so you can watch the Extended Cut videos. Upgrade to Gold for just $50 more for the downloads and Code Vault.
• For older lessons, Beginner = 100s, Expert = 200s, Developer = 300s.

New: Developer Plus! now includes:

• ALL Seminars
• ALL Templates
• ALL TechHelp Extended Cut Videos & Gold Member Downloads
• Priority TechHelp Queue
• Access to the Code Vault
• All new Developer courses before they're released!

What Does Membership Cost?

You can either pay for an annual or lifetime membership. Sorry, I do not offer monthly memberships because unscrupulous individuals would sign up for one month, download everything, and then cancel. After your first year, if you wish to continue month-to-month, that's fine with me.

Duration	Beginner	Expert	Developer	Developer Plus!
Annual	$79	$429	$1,299	$3,499
Lifetime	$299	$1,999	$6,999	$9,999

Membership levels include everything below them too. So, for example, if you become a Developer-level member, you get access to ALL of my Beginner courses, ALL of my Expert courses, ALL of my Advanced and Developer-level courses, ALL of the PDF handbooks for those lessons, and some Seminars & Templates. That's a LOT of material. Plus, all members receive a 50% discount on anything you may wish to purchase outside of your membership level, seminars, or templates.

How Do I View My Courses?

You can log on any time right here on my web site and watch your courses whenever you wish. As long as you remain a MYOLP member, you have full access to all of the materials in your membership level. You watch your lessons right in your web browser using the Online Theater. You can even download the videos and other course materials for offline use. 

Can I Cancel At Any Time?

You must agree to remain a member for a minimum of one year. After that, you can cancel any time you wish. Of course, once your membership is canceled, you will no longer have access to your lessons. If you experience a hardship and need to pause your membership, contact me. I can always to put your account ON HOLD. I know things happen - loss of a job, sickness, global pandemic, etc. I will work with you as best I can. After the first year, you may switch to month-to-month billing if you prefer. Just be sure to contact me before your year is up, otherwise the system will bill you for the full year renewal.

Can I Upgrade My Membership?

Yes, of course. You can upgrade your membership at any time to the next level. You will just pay the pro-rated difference in the membership types for the remainder of your current billing period. If you sign up for a single year and wish to upgrade to a lifetime membership, I will apply what you paid for your first year to the lifetime membership, provided you do so before your first year expires.

Can I Share My Membership?

No. Like my regular lessons, MYOLP memberships are sold on a PER-USER basis. You may not share your account with others. It's only fair. I don't mind if you share your account with your spouse or kids that live at home, but that's all. Immediate family living with you only. Business users may NOT share one account between multiple users. I do offer discounts for businesses and educational institutions that want to sign up multiple users. Contact me.

Are Seminars & Templates Included?

Some, but not all of my Seminars and Templates are included in MYOLP. Some are not. Here is a complete list. Even for those items that are not included, you will still receive a 50% discount.

Is the ABCD Included?

Sorry, but the ABCD (Access Business & Contact Database) is a separate non-teaching product. It is considered a Template and is not included in the MYOLP program. New: Developer Plus! members do get the ABCD. 

Are TechHelp Extended Cut Videos Included?

TechHelp Silver (the extended cut videos) is included with the Developer level. TechHelp Gold (Code Vault, et al.) is included with Developer Plus! 

Technical Support Not Provided

Signing up for a Membership of any kind gives you access to specific perks as listed. If you have questions about the material covered in a specific course, feel free to post them in the Student Forum for that course. If you have other non-related questions you would like to submit to be considered for a TechHelp video, you will be given priority consideration over non-members, however an answer is not in any way guaranteed. Even in the event your question is accepted, the waiting list is generally several weeks long. I will answer your question if I think it makes for a good video. Otherwise, I will do my best to point you to another video (free or paid) that may answer your question.

Membership does NOT include free technical support for your database problems. I do my best to answer questions for my students as I have time, however it is never guaranteed. I no longer provide technical support or one-on-one consulting. If you are looking for someone to help you with your database, whether it needs troubleshooting or you want someone to add something to it for you, check out my Access Developer Network. I've got a group of very knowledgeable Developers who are available to help you.

TechHelp is for generic questions that I can make videos to answer for lots of people to enjoy. "How do I...?" type questions. It's not to get support for your database issues. Sorry. There are only so many hours in the day, and I can't help everyone myself. While I love to get your questions, and I'll answer them if I have time, technical support is not guaranteed. You're better off posting in the Forums, and even then, a response is not guaranteed.

Terms & Conditions

• Your account is for you ONLY. No sharing.
• Make sure you can watch my videos before ordering.
• You will not receive any physical products. Online only.
• Your membership will renew until you cancel.
• Minimum membership length is one year.
• All sales are final.

You agree that you are signing up for a personal online membership to a computer training web site. You understand that membership allows you to view computer training videos on the web site during the period of your membership, and that membership does not provide you with any CDs, videotapes, printed materials, or any other products or services.

Personal MYOLP accounts are unique to one specific user. You agree not to share your account with others. For corporate accounts or volume discounts, please contact me. 

You acknowledge that your membership will automatically renew at the end of its term. You agree to remain a member for a period of no less than one year. You may cancel your membership at any time after the first year, however you must do so before the start of your next billing cycle to avoid being charged. Email isn't perfect. Do not assume your account has been canceled until you receive a return email acknowledgement from me. ALL SALES ARE FINAL. Early cancellation does not grant you a partial refund.

After your first year, you may be switched to monthly billing at your annual discounted rate. I will sometimes do this automatically for the more expensive memberships even if you don't ask me, that way it's not a huge hit on your credit card, and you're not locked in to a whole additional year.
