Veelgestelde vragen

What certificate do I get, and what is it not?

If you score 80% or more on the final assessment, you can download a certificate of completion for this course. It shows you finished a general skills course. It is not an accredited qualification, an employer or government certification, or a promise of a job.

How does the final assessment work?

It has 30 questions picked at random from the course's question bank, and you have 30 minutes. You get a new mix of questions each time you try. The topic quizzes are untimed and show an explanation after each answer.

Is this course only for one kind of job?

No. The lessons cover skills for any interview, and Lesson 3 has practice for retail, hospitality, security, office, warehouse and healthcare support jobs.

I am new to Canada. Will this course help me?

Yes. It explains common Canadian interview styles such as behavioural questions, what employers may and may not ask, and how to talk about experience you gained in other countries.

Does this course give legal advice about discrimination?

No. Lesson 6 explains human rights basics in general terms. For a specific situation, contact the Canadian Human Rights Commission for federally regulated employers, or your provincial or territorial human rights agency for other employers.

Is het certificaat geaccrediteerd of officieel erkend?

Nee. Het is een privé bewijs van deelname, alleen voor je kennis. Het is niet erkend, geaccrediteerd of goedgekeurd door een overheid, vergunningsinstantie, toezichthouder of onderwijsinstelling, en het vervangt geen wettelijk verplichte vergunning, certificering of opleiding.
