All newly-learned skills are tentative, at first, but repetition over time brings confidence. The courses developed by our seasoned instructors for our curriculum are designed to provide a solid theoretical understanding that is reinforced with hands-on experience. By the time you graduate, you are equipped to perform as a confident professional.
Our instructors have developed several methods of evaluating a student’s progress. These include traditional written tests, hands-on projects, and step-by-step exercises. They are evaluated by an individual instructor; along with online tests that give immediate results through our computer system.
Creativity is encouraged: as you progress through your program, we encourage you to explore alternative and creative problem-solving methods on your own. Finding more than one way to solve different problems is a valuable work asset.

Computer Concepts is delivered in the traditional book-learning style, with written tests for evaluation. The Windows course is evaluated using a combination of hands-on projects and online tests through our Students’ Centre. We evaluate the Internet Basics course solely through automated tests at our online Students’ Centre.
Each of your Specialty Courses consists of step-by-step tutorials punctuated by periodic exams and independent projects. The Digital Media courses in particular place a strong focus on building an original portfolio of work through project-based exams. All independent projects are evaluated by an instructor with real world experience, and returned with helpful commentary that will allow you to expand your skill base.
All of our Digital Arts and Digital Technology programs focus on exercises and assignments that provide you with:
- Hands-on experience that incrementally increased in difficulty until you mastered the level of proficiency required.
- Portfolio pieces you can showcase when you're interviewing for jobs.
- Simulated experience of any tests you must take for skills that require certification, such as ComTIA Certification for Computer Technicians.
- Confidence in your ability to perform professionally.
