He has no idea what he talks about. Please, avoid buying the courses or virtually anything from this man.
First, broadcast storm is NOT caused by "a lot of devices are starting broadcast", you can make a broadcast storm with only 2 switches in the network. You only need to connect those 2 unmanageble switches with more than 1 cable and that's enough to disrupt a whole network - switches will relay broadcast frames to each other, multiplying it each time they receive it.
Second - collisions are L1 term, broadcast storm is L2, you cannot have something from higher level affect lower level protocols. Thus, broadcast storm cannot cause collisions.
