Registering to a course

Can I only take the exam and not attend and pay for the course?

To take an exam for AEE certifications offered by CIET, the related courses are mandatory. However, if you’ve already taken the related course in the last three years and have not attempted the exam or have yet to obtain a passing grade on the exam, you do not need to retake the course. 

On the other hand, when it comes to NRCan’s Foundation and Energy Advisor Exam, our courses are not mandatory. NRCan doesn’t require aspiring energy advisors to go through training before challenging the exam. That being said, make no mistake about the relevance of taking our prep courses. Our courses were born out of a demand for energy advisor (EAs) exam preparations. The amount of material covered by both exams is not to be underestimated, and aspiring EAs who challenge the NRCan exams without benefitting from our services often struggle to obtain a passing grade. 

You’ll find in our prep courses 20 years of experience made available and accessible to you through our Sharepoint site containing comprehensive training material, exercises, and resources. That is without forgetting to mention our excellent instructors who use all of their own experience to guide you through long competency profiles.

This is to inform you that the course date is too close to be able to ship hard copies of the material to you on time. If you are willing to use the material in secured PDF, receive the material later (likely after the course) and pay upon registration, please click OK to continue the registration process. Please note that the shipping process will start only when the course fees are paid in full and delays are to be expected. Many thanks!
