Let's be direct. This is what being "stuck" really looks like:

  • Financial Drain: Watching thousands in tuition disappear with no degree to show for it.
  • Career Stagnation: Seeing promotions, faculty positions, and high-paying consulting gigs pass you by.
  • Constant Frustration: Feeling isolated and overwhelmed by unclear feedback from your chair and the sheer scale of the project.
  • The Cost of Inaction: Knowing that every day you wait, the dream of being "Dr." slips further away.

Doing nothing is a decision to let these costs accumulate. It's time for a new strategy. It's time to get this done.

Meet the Velocity Program Leadership Team

Hi, I’m Dr. Ramon Goings,


A tenured college professor, researcher of over 60 publications, and founder of Done Dissertation®, a dissertation consulting firm.

After experiencing my own dissertation struggles while obtaining my Doctor of Education degree in urban educational leadership from Morgan State University, and seeing my own students struggle, I knew there had to be a better way. Today, using The Done Dissertation, I’ve made it my mission to help doctoral students and doctoral programs break down the dissertation process into manageable pieces so that doctoral students can finish their dissertations in one year (or less). Additionally, I have supported doctoral programs nationwide to provide a more relevant and expedited process for their doctoral students.

I have had the opportunity to help over 100 doctoral students navigate the dissertation process and support their journeys to become college professors, K-12/higher education administrators, and consultants.

Hi, I’m Mrs. Renee Goings,

As Co-Owner and Director of Operations, I bring my expertise to Done Dissertation® to ensure our Velocity clients receive nothing short of top-tier service, starting with our program consultation calls, which I personally conduct.

My previous role as a Vice President for a national insurance broker instilled in me a results-driven approach, which I now leverage to help you strategize, overcome hurdles, and efficiently execute your dissertation plan. Holding a Bachelor's degree in Mathematics from the University of Lynchburg, I'm passionate about providing the foundational support needed to help you achieve your goal of dissertation completion and contribute to Done Dissertation's reputation as the premier resource for doctoral students.

Imagine...

  • Finally being able to manage your busy schedule and reclaim your time to finish your dissertation without being overcome with perfectionism and procrastination
  • Successfully completing the dissertation process and having all the tools you need to secure your new tenure track faculty position
  • Enjoying your new increased consulting and speaking income because not only are you the EXPERT on your dissertation topic, you’re being paid like one
  • Selecting a dissertation chair and committee members that not only see your vision, but make your defense a breeze
  • No more of the back and forth revisions from your dissertation chair, because you’ve mastered writing each chapter in a way that minimizes that completely
  • Transforming policy and practice with your dissertation research and defending that research with confidence and clarity
  • Waking up each day excited knowing you're making a difference in students' lives as a college faculty member.

Life Before the Velocity Group Coaching Program

  • Struggling for months (or years) with thousands of dollars in sunk tuition costs.
  • Overwhelmed, isolated, and unsure how to move forward with your chair.
  • Getting passed over for promotions and opportunities because your degree isn't finished.
  • Your personal life is on hold, consumed by the guilt of not writing. 

Life After the Velocity Group Coaching Program

  • Writing with confidence and defending your dissertation with clarity and authority.
  • Your chair becomes your advocate because your chapter drafts are focused and powerful.
  • 2-3x your income potential by securing top-tier positions and high-paid consulting work.
  • You reclaim your time to spend with family and friends, free from the weight of your dissertation.

What is the Done Dissertation Velocity Group Coaching Program?


A four-month dissertation coaching program designed to demystify the entire dissertation process so that you can write your dissertation in record time, defend it with clarity and confidence, and secure a tenure track faculty position.

In the Velocity Group Coaching Program, we’ll go through 4 phases:

Phase 1: Create your Done Dissertation Blueprint


In Phase One, you will develop your done dissertation completion plan in order to map out each section of your dissertation from beginning to end. Additionally, you will develop your dissertation completion team. This process includes developing incentives for each milestone you complete.

Phase 2: Write Your Done Dissertation


Phase Two is all about understanding how to write all of the various chapters in your dissertation. We will cover how to write your literature review, theoretical framework, methodology, findings, and discussion in a way that your committee will see that you are an authority on your topic. We will also explore how to navigate the institutional review board process so your study is approved the first time!

Phase 3: Defense Preparation and Beyond


In Phase Three you are prepared to defend your dissertation proposal or final defense. You will not only know how to conduct your defense with confidence you will be OVER prepared for the question and answer position of the defense.

Phase 4: Securing Your Tenure Track Faculty Position


Phase Four is all about making sure you have everything you need to secure your college faculty or post-doc position. In this phase you will be understanding how to read job advertisements, find the right institution fit, prepare your curriculum vitae, teaching statement, cover letters, and more. You’ll leave this program confident, prepared, and ready to begin your higher education faculty career.

That transformation from 'stuck' to 'done' doesn't happen by accident. It happens with a proven system.

 

We've broken down our entire process for you in this short video below.

 "In three to four months I put together chapters 1 through 3 and successfully defended my proposal and that speaks volumes. Don't hesitate. Jump in, lock in and take advantage of the program." - Dr. Darin Thompson, PhD in Educational Leadership and Administration

“I started working with Done Dissertation and Dr. Goings during a very isolating time. I was looking for support with getting to and through proposal defense. Not only did I defend my proposal, but I gained tools that would take me through my dissertation defense and beyond. The decision to reach out and receive support was the catalyst I needed for completing my dissertation." - Dr. Eshe Price, PhD in Urban Education

“Admittedly, I was skeptical about investing in a dissertation coach when I did not need intense content or technical writing support. However, Done Dissertation tailored support to fit my need for an accountability and thought partner. When I shared that I was also applying for assistant professor positions, I was pleasantly surprised and grateful that my coach provided resources and helped me turn my dissertation research into a job talk. By the end of my two months working with Done Dissertation, I successfully defended my dissertation and secured my current assistant professorship.” -  Dr. Tamela C. Thomas, Assistant Professor of Teacher Leadership, Kennesaw State University
