Review

If you are in a rush and need things done very quickly, do not rely on University of Toronto.

While doing this course, you are forbidden from even viewing the content of any lesson until you have completed every lesson before it. And (almost) every unit is capped with a submission of reflection journals that need to be manually 100% accepted by someone, somewhere, and you can't continue the course (or even try to write the test for that unit) until that is done. Which can take 1-2 days. You also never get any feedback on the quality or content of your reflective journals, despite the course having a whole unit talking about the usefulness of feedback and good ways to give useful feedback on a students work.

After completing this course, I was made to wait a full 5 weeks before receiving a scanned copy of my certificate, and I still haven't received the physical copy now, more than a week since I got the scanned copy, and it should normally take 2 or 3 days for how relatively short of a distance away I am. And this is despite me asking them multiple times to send it to me by the fastest means possible, even saying to do it at my own expense!

With that out of the way, the content itself seems fairly straightforward. The quizzes and unit tests weren't especially difficult.

Would you recommend this program?
No, I would not

Private Note to Provider (optional)
Some of your unit tests do both of: 1) show you when you answer a question if it is incorrect and 2) allow you to change your answers before submitting for marking.
If this isn't making things too easy, I don't know what is.

I am also disappointed with the lack of actual care regarding my requests for a faster delivery of the certificate, despite my offering to cover the charges myself. Nevermind the fact that the time-frame was already longer than the one suggested by the site, and it maybe should have been a concession you give out anyways. It's not expensive to send a single piece of paper by express, and you certainly charge enough for a course with so little human interaction that your overheads shouldn't be very large.
