How to access the Micro-Certificate program courses
To access the NEBP e-Learning Micro-Certificate courses, participants must first apply to the NEBP. Upon acceptance, participants will receive access to their CAMRT online profile and the Learning Management System, along with further instructions on registration and course access.
What to Expect
Once a Learning Management System (LMS) account has been created, participants will have access to all 12 online Micro-Certificate modules that make up the three courses.
The modules are available for self-enrolment, allowing participants to enroll in the modules required for their individual learning pathway.
Before beginning each module, participants will complete a pre-assessment. The pre-assessment is not graded and does not affect progress or final results. It is used solely to measure baseline knowledge before participants begin the module.
After completing each module, participants will complete a post-assessment. The post-assessment is used to measure learning outcomes and evaluate the overall effectiveness of the Micro-Certificate Program.
