Frequently Asked Questions

Visit the Quick Train catalogue to browse our offerings. In addition to searching by microcredential cost, duration and availability, you can also search by subject to ensure you find an offering that reflects your interests. Once you have decided on an offering, you will be redirected to the registration page of the institution offering the microcredential where you can complete your registration. 

Microcredentials are offered in varying formats. Once you have selected the offering(s) from our catalogue, you will find further details about the format (in-person, online, hybrid) and microcredential requirements.

Upon completing the microcredential(s), learners will receive a certificate of completion, digital badge or acknowledgement of completion through the institution(s) offering the completed course(s). 

In a competitive job market, your acknowledgement of completion sets you apart from other applicants, demonstrating your commitment to continuous learning and self-improvement to meet new industry standards within an ever-changing economy. Completing a microcredential through an accredited institution equips you with knowledge and skills that support you in your career journey and provides you with an opportunity to network with alumni and industry connections through the institution you complete your microcredential. 

Learners can enrol in microcredentials being held in provinces different from those in which they reside. For in-person offerings, attending all in-person components is required for the successful completion of the program. For online microcredentials, learners can complete the offering from the province they reside in. If there is a microcredential you are hoping to enrol in that is not being offered in your home province, other institutions closer to home may have training in the same sector that may interest you. 

Check out the Quick Train catalogue for all the options available to you. For further questions, contact the institution offering the microcredential you are interested in directly.
