Through this evaluation, we grant equivalent Ontario credits toward your diploma so you don’t have to repeat subjects you’ve already mastered. We offer this as a Free Credit Assessment: simply provide your current transcripts, and our guidance team will build a custom Roadmap showing you exactly which courses you have left to graduate.

All coursework is completed through our secure student portal. For final exams, we utilize secure online proctoring software to ensure academic integrity, allowing you to complete your assessments safely from home while maintaining the prestige of your diploma.
