I was very impressed with the content and the easily understood animations and explanations. I really learned a lot and it greatly helped me to pass the exam on the first try. I have one significant criticism though which I think bears adjusting your presentation. And this is not a frivolous concern. All, and I mean ALL, the people depicted were white! And almost all the people depicted driving the boats and doing the significant actions were male! Considering this is 2017 I would have expected BOATsmart to pay attention to this and make your product inclusive. Obviously the message is exclusionary if only white males are shown doing most of the significant activity. For me, it does not matter so much, but for my daughter, who will write the exam in a few years, she will more easily internalize these messages. Please make your product more inclusive to make everyone feel like they should be enjoying boating in Canada!

Great course. Like that you could just read material, listen to video or do both.

Loved the learning style choices. Listen, read and watch. Also, ability to do so at your own pace.

Not much. I read waaaaay faster than the allowed time. It was like watching paint dry and I was pretty miserable by the end.

Thanks for taking time to leave feedback Tawny. We understand the test can take awhile for some students, but the time requirements and quizzes are required by Transport Canada and NASBLA to ensure students of all reading levels are able to fully understand all content. The timed requirements are the same across all course providers, and we find many students prefer the convenience of completing the course from the comfort of home, rather than in a classroom setting. Thanks for sticking with it, and safe boating!

Mostly I'm happy to have the licence. The online course is very thorough - but also repeats EVERYTHING in the book, which is frustrating to those of us who study the book & then go online expecting to take the exam and being forced to take the entire course... However, I am now pretty confident about my knowledge.

I liked that you could read each lesson while following along to the video. The pictures were also a solid visual aid and teaching tool.

The sessions are to long, you should not have any more than 20 pcs of information in each section and then quiz. Have more sections if you have to. Totally stressful. There was enjoyment in it. The material was fine.

I would have liked the course better if on all quizes and final exam if I knew what ones I answered incorrectly. I have no idea what I know that is incorrect Bev
