Electricity Fundamentals in Canada

Accelerating Learning

Electricity Canada is uniquely positioned to provide a foundational education course that provides the fundamentals for those who work in the energy sector. Our industry is experiencing rapid growth with the influx of renewables, change in consumer behaviours and rapidly evolving emissions targets from the government. This specially designed course, while energy agnostic, will help Canadians understand the importance of the electricity sector on the path to a net-zero future.

Electricity Fundamentals in Canada (EFiC) is a unique post-secondary level course that provides a high level, cross cutting overview of the entire industry, ranging from nomenclature, technologies, issues, challenges, and the future.

The online course is available in both English and French, and is modular and self-paced. The “see it, do it, know it” format, is completed with testing and scoring for each module. Following the completion of all modules, students can print their EFiC certificate of completion and share it on social media.

With no prerequisite study required, EFiC provides all the tools necessary to provide a comprehensive overview of how the electricity system in Canada works.
