“The course is very informative, offers different learning options (reading, listening, visualizing) but is extremely long. The final test was difficult, as it had some random questions, instead of being based on the most important things to know. It should be divided into modules, so we can refer back to the manual (if we have one). If not, there should be a way to go back to the online modules to review content. Finally, when answering each module quiz, we should be told which answers were wrong in order to learn from our mistakes. As for recommending Boatsmart, it’s not a choice so the question isn’t pertinent.”

“Too much repetition, modules are too long, it shouldnt take so long to complete the course. And some material is not necessary for the common boater to know.”

“It's good that boaters are familiar with all the information your course provides. Having onboard a study guide for reference with ready checklists should be mandatory. As a commercial pilot, I cannot overemphasize the value of checklists. However, for practical purposes, with your current study format, the student suffers from information overload and the sample test questions are occasionally irrelevant. Eg; Is it important for the boater to know under which body of law [criminal code or some other] he/she is to be charged or simply that an act is illegal. Or, what the first sign of "cold water shock" is ["deep and sudden gasp etc.] rather than the clinical term for this symptom [cold shock]. Wrong answers should be identified to ensure future compliance. With this in mind, your training should be simplified and test questions should concentrate on what the immediate action should be taken to avoid catastrophe rather than identifying the nomenclature of such maladies and their subsequent phases. Non essential information should italicized or placed in an addendum. An online source to download and print checklists for individual crafts may prove an complementary aid to waterway safety.”

“Not sure, but there seems to be a lot of irrelevant information. I read the entire boatsmart study guide and did all the practise exercises. Then I discovered that I had to do the entire process over again online because I wanted to take the exam on line. I spent twice as much time to get this license. You should say very clearly at the beginning to do everything online if you want to do the exam online. I would warn anyone I spoke to about doing everything online so that they would not waste their time.”

“It’s a good course if you know nothing what so ever about anything but it is painful to endure if you already know he content and just need to get your license. The support from customer service was reall great when we needed it.”

“I am happy to have completed the test but it was a very long system instead of haveing everything spaced out they should put related subjects in 1 video”

“found it too slow put me to sleep with how slow the narrator was and there was too many repeated lessons at least for me but i have been around boats all my life just didn't need a money grab license when i had aboat last”

“I think it’s good that you covered all topics but maybe show people what they got wrong on the end of module quizzes so you could see what you need to improve on”

“To long to retain info”

“It is excessive and far more than it should be”

“Great course, very impressive videos. Con: You should be able to skip material that you are already familiar with rather than having to wait for the video play. Video length is a bit longer than it will take you to read, for should give the option of reading and/or video.”

“I would like to see a review of the questions I got wrong, otherwise I go forward with the wrong information. And to have to go through ALL of the module to redo the test is exasperating.”

“I am giving an acceptable rating only because I know the course is needed. BUT, I think it should be done differently. There should be a basic course for people like me, that are just going to putter around a lake, in a fishing boat. Then if a person wants to go into the ocean, or locks, then they should take a course for that. Plus, the mandatory lessons are WAY too long!”

“I dont think it needed to be that long some unnecessary stuff”

“Certain questions on the final test were not covered by the course. When taking the course, the pertinent content that will likely be on the test isn't highlighted. This makes it difficult as the vital information is hidden between long stretches of fairly basic, common sense information making everything more difficult and a bit tedious.”

“The content is repetitive and time consuming and the questions are not ind Active of knowledge of material. Questions and content are confusing due to unnecessary repetition.”

“Very disappointed had to pay full price when 40% was sale was on before I even wrote the exam one person said I could have my money back and the other one said no not impressed”

“The content was OK at best. The animations and sound effects are fairly poor by modern online course standards, not to mention most of the videos did not work (I am guessing you are still using a SCORM file with some outdated flash plugins, or bad YouTube links? This is an easy fix if you are using a course builder like Captivate etc.) and the voice over could have been recorded better. However, very convenient to complete, not difficult content, got my licence in just under 4hrs. Sweet!”

“I have never received more emails in such a short period of time from any company.....so if that’s important to you then this is your course. It takes forever and some of the videos are done playing but you have to wait till their timer runs out. Content was good, but took so long to finish.”

“Make all the videos in each module together rather than having 50 minute long videos”
