Online Portion Of Mentor Training
The M.E.N.T.O.R. Approach course is a two parts course. When a participant can’t make it to our RECAP session following The M.E.N.T.O.R. Approach course, the alternative to receive their NB-MAP certification is a small quiz.
The test has 14 questions relating to the material seen in class. You can use their pocket reference book given to you in the first session to complete the quiz (the majority of the answers are in there). You will have two chances to take the test and pass successfully. If you do not pass it the first time, I will send you a copy of your test for revision before your second attempt. When you pass, we will send the certificate and a sticker for your passport from NBCSA to the union hall for distribution.
Here is the link for the quiz in ENGLISH :
