All our course timelines are crafted for market demand and specifically designed to accommodate student preferences (part-time or full-time, weekdays or weekends, time of day, etc.). Course durations range from 1 day to 12 months (depending on the course). We ask that you share your preferences with your ReTrain career consultant and indicate these on your application.

We understand that affordability is often a concern in this peculiarly challenging environment. As such, we offer payment plans and periodically provide grants and scholarships. Please visit the Upcoming Courses section frequently or subscribe to our mailing list to stay informed about such opportunities.

Yes. Canadian employers are very big on “Canadian trained” and “Canadian work experience”. If you have attempted job searches in Canada, these are surely terms you frequently came across. This particular issue has been cause of frustration for many capable candidates. This was and remains a big factor in our affiliation with ReTrain Canada, Tesnas and other placement partners.
Our aim is to curate candidates and position them optimally for Canadian and other global work opportunities.
All our course content are specifically designed to be easily understood and retained by students, whilst ensuring we provide you with skills to maximise your potential. We continually use feedback from students, marketplace and industry to modify course content. We advise you to study course prerequisites and discuss any concerns with a ReTrain career consultant before signing up.
Depending on the course you complete, you will either receive an RTC.ReTrain Certified credential or an RmC.ReTrain Micro-credential. An RTC designation certifies that an individual has completed a body of training courses, studies, and examinations sufficient to demonstrate competency in the relevant field. RmCs are stepping stones towards other credentials, employment roles or other academic pursuits such as professional accreditations, post-secondary or post-tertiary studies.

We have and continue to do this very successfully. We take this very seriously, as this is key to our established credibility and reputation.

We urge you to beware of unscrupulous organisations advertising job guarantees. The decision to employ you is ultimately up to an employer and not a 3rd party. Employers base your employment on your technical knowledge, soft skills, remuneration requirements and interview performance. No 3rd party agency is in a position to guarantee you a job on behalf of an employer.
