Read the facts in context.
What a listing tells you, how it reaches the directory, and what still needs a conversation with the provider.
From source to listing
- 01
Source information is collected.
Named publisher pages and documents provide the course facts. The source and its observation date travel with the record.
- 02
The information is checked.
Changes, missing fields and conflicting corrections go into a private review process. A successful collection does not publish a listing.
- 03
A reviewed version is published.
The public directory shows an approved version of the record. Later source changes remain separate until reviewed.
- 04
You confirm with the provider.
Follow the source link to confirm fees, availability, practical requirements and suitability for your work.
Four kinds of information
Course
A publisher’s course or programme listing. It may still lack dates, a price or other details.
Session listing
A source item classified as a training session. The directory does not infer a current timetable or available seats from that label.
Course family
A training type that may have different providers or offerings. It is kept in the Families & references view.
Approval reference
An entry in a named approval publication. It describes that publication’s information, rather than a live approval feed.
Price labels mean different things.
Free appears only when the source explicitly identifies the course as free. Zero amount shownmeans the source lists zero without confirming that the course is free. A price with no identified currency is labelled accordingly.
See pricing details means the source provides conditions or wording without a single numeric amount. Price not listed means the reviewed source has no usable price. Membership, tax and other published conditions stay beside the amount.
Delivery is not recognition.
An online course is not automatically available or recognized everywhere in Canada. A national publisher’s coverage is not a course-specific recognition claim. Blended training may include an in-person component.
Check the practical assessment, eligibility and certificate wording. Confirm the requirements that apply to your employer, work and jurisdiction.
Two dates, two meanings
Source observed is the date of the source information supporting the listing. Published in this index is when that reviewed version was made public.
A later check can fail while earlier published information remains visible. The sources page distinguishes that operational check from the evidence behind a listing.
Search order and coverage
Keyword results use relevance; browsing without a keyword uses course name. You can choose duration, review date or an explicit currency for price order. Missing numeric information sorts after known values.
Training listings, not unique qualifications or available seats, are counted. Identically named courses from different sources stay separate. Unnamed discoveries and private review records are excluded from public totals.
