From enrolment to credit
CHOOSE
COMPLETE ENROLMENT
Submit required academic records and identification, and complete payment after eligibility is clear. CNA sends access instructions once enrolment is processed.
LEARN AND GET FEEDBACK
Work through lessons and submit your own work. Ask your teacher questions and arrange additional support when needed.
COMPLETE ASSESSMENT
Finish all required coursework and final evaluations within your enrolment period. Guidance can explain how to request your academic records.
A teacher behind every course
Ontario Certified Teachers lead our courses and provide feedback that helps you improve. Contact your teacher about concepts or assessments, and speak with Guidance about pacing, course selection or additional help.
Flexible pacing with a clear end date
Online enrolment is available throughout the year. You have up to 12 months to complete a course. Some students complete eligible courses in as little as four weeks, but your timeline depends on preparation, workload and assessment requirements.
Use a study plan to set weekly goals. Leave time for exam booking, grading and any documents your next school needs. A course hold or adjustment must be discussed with CNA; it is not an automatic extension.
Questions about online study
Do I attend scheduled daily classes?
Online courses are asynchronous. Scheduled support and supervised assessments may require appointments. Campus classes follow a timetable.
What equipment will I need?
You need a reliable internet connection, a current browser, a camera and microphone, and software required by your selected course.
Can I study while attending another school?
Often, yes. Confirm timetable, prerequisite and transcript requirements with Guidance before enrolling.
