Can easily read the module text before the time allows you to move to the next slide. If you are not reading and choose to watch the videos, some of the videos play through to the end and you continue to have to wait until you can click on the next page button.

Very informative with a touch of degree of difficulty so a new boat operator has to study

More video lessons instead of just narration would be nice. Also had several lessons where the timer was much longer than the audio or video for the lesson. This meant having to wait (for up to a minute) while the timer ran down before being able to move to the next lesson.

The areas of the course that went too slowly or were 100% clear for me already could not be bypassed. This shifted focus from survival knowledge and what is critical and unique in order to operate a boat, to frustration the timer had not expired by the time the content was complete which frequently left 30 to 60s waiting, bored to death. I personally rate this as follows: “Very poor”; frustrating and too slow/boring in some sections. But it did get me prepared for 100% performance on the final test +1. and I also see a need to prevent someone skimming through content they don’t actually know +1, you dont know what is and is not ok to skip for each individual.

I say vary poor mainly for following reasons. In no particular order. 1. When you do the module test and you don’t score 100% you have know idea what question you got wrong. That is ridiculous. I taught computer based training and the student could review the wrong answer and rationalize why they got it wrong and they then can understand what the correct action would be. This is boater safety. A person should be able to complete the course with 100% score if they are actually concerned with safety. 80% isn’t good enough if you don’t know what your doing and drown. 2. A three hour on line test is to long. Having a mandatory time between questions is ludicrous. There were areas of the modules I could have flown through and others I would like to have spent more time on. And just more time to digest and understand the module but knowing that it would take 3 hours at best I didn’t ponder very long on anyone module. 3 From a safety point of view there was way way way too much filler which extended the time of the course. You could do a much better job dealing with on water safety. 4 the modules dealing with buoys is painful. Many boaters boat on small inland lakes without buoys or beacons. And for the people that have Buoys etc they could that module. So I would recommend boater license that are graduated. Like a drivers license. You need a different license to drive a bus, tandem axle truck, motorcycle etc. Can you imagine a drivers safety course to cover all that. Ya. You could say that would be too hard to police but if you are serious about safety then take it bloodwell serious. Imagine. I get my boater card license , have a boat load of people and now I am about to boat on a waterway with channel markers. I would be so confused by them and could kill everyone on board. But hey. I had a boaters card with a watered down version of buoys Give the right level of licensing for the right type of boating. Period. In my opinion and everyone I have talked to thinks the boater card is a huge waist of time and money. 5. Only one module made me feel that there was value to the course and that was navigation with other water craft. Could have used more on that for sure From personal experience and again from what other people tell me we need more education on how to travel on a waterway especially when they get busy. People with boater license are all over the place without a clue on navigating with other boater traffic.

Great illustrations and videos - so funny at times! But always useful. Perhaps re-read the content; there were some spelling mistakes and grammatical errors. The website still gave me the sense that it was a very professional environment and the material likewise.

The course was good and it had content you would need as a boater. But the test from Transport Canada was a joke and it was worded in the worst possible way. Terrible terrible test from Transport Canada. I think people should just pass the online course test and be certified. There is no need for the Transport Canada test.
