ICS Canada is accredited by CETAC (http://www.accreditations.ca/recommended.shtml), which should mean it's trustworthy.

They ARE accredited and are 100% real. BUT its whether people recognize the school that counts I guess.
By the way, I've earned a pharmacy assistant diploma and are currently taking a legal assistant diploma from them

I am enrolled in the Certified Personal Trainer course. Almost finished and now I find out that their certification is only recognized in the U.S. so I CANNOT get a job unless I take a course and get certified with Can-Fit Pro so I am EXTREMELY disappointed! I would not take a course with them, many of the people I talk to that have taken online courses or even courses at Everest cannot find work so that money invested is all wasted! I would say go for the real thing a college or university these career colleges are a waste of money and so is ICS.
Oh and another thing, their scope of materials is VERY poor. I did not learn much as far as how to go about being a personal trainer ( the actual hands on part) the course materials are very vague, you basically have to go online and do research on your own time to learn what their courses clearly do not provide/teach.
Complete and utter waste of time if you ask me!!

I am currently doing the retail pharmacy assistant course online, I was wondering if this school was any good? One thing I know for sure is I will never know until I actually try to get a job with it. I know in the States I could get a job with it. But in Newfoundland, Canada... I don't know...

!!! ICS Highschool Diploma is sure not accredited in Ontario!!!
I took ISC- Thompson High school Diploma course and graduated in 2006. This year 2011 I graduated a register Hair Stylist school in Ontario. Now I try to register for apprentice ship at Minister of education of Ontario. The Minister did not recognize ICS High school Diploma and did not accept my registration. They said this school is not recognizable in Ontario.
ICS Hischool Diploma Certificate look so cheap It doesn't even has stamp seal. The transcrip does not have grade. I asked ICS and they told me their High school Diploma is equally to grade 11!! I lost $1200 and 2 years at ICS from 2004-2006.
