Hi Everyone,

Has anyone completed PCQI online course from imEpik?

Can you please help me with the reviews in term of content quality and it's value in the market?

Has it got the same value as FSPCA PCQI course as I could see the difference in the certificate of completion.

Kindly help.

Hey there! 

 

I took that same exact one.

 

I personally liked it and recommend it. For its lower price and same content and quality as the FSPCA one. Except it is online and not in a live class (yeah no live classes atm). 

 

They use really good examples of an imaginary company and most of them are taken from the FSPCA course. So they actually give you content from the FSPCA one.

 

To my knowledge, FDA won't come in and go like WHERE DID YOU TAKE YOUR PCQI FROM? nah. I took it around 2 years ago and had no problems. I had a thorough understanding and felt competent! :)

 

Hope it helps :)

Hello everyone, 

 

I saw someone posted about taking PCQI online course from imEpik. I'm having a hard time answering one of the questions on module 3 page 15, adjacent properties. I went around to look for manuel, but saw thing there. Can someone help me out please? 

Mark the following which are important to consider when evaluating for potential external hazards: 
 

1. maintaining roads, yards, and parking area

2. proper storage of equipement

3. location on interior bathrooms 

4. cutting weeds 

5. exclusion of pests, dirt, and filth in adjacent areas
6. Removing litter and waste

7. understanding the area and crime rate

 

I spent like 2 hours researching it, but so far no luck. 

 

Please help me out.

That's for pest control, right? Then - 1, 4, 5, 6, and possibly 2 (if you have external equipment storage) as it's critical to prevent pest harborage.

Hello, 

 

PCQI online course from imEpik.

 

Can someone help me out with this question? 

 

Thank you

 

Check the areas in which it is a requirement to provide adequate flood drainage.

 

1. All areas where floors are subject to flooding-type cleaning

2. All areas where normal operations release or discharge water

3. All areas where there is a fire sprinkler

4. All areas where normal operations release or discharge liquid waste on the floor

 

Should be 1/2/4 right?

all of the above, of course we have a slight edge, we offer this training program.

 

It is all of the above because sprinkler systems can most certainly cause flooding issues.

Hi All, when taking this training program, is there anyone to reach out to if you have a question about the content while you're taking the class.  Obviously there isn't a live instructor, but it is the one thing that makes me hesitate when choosing this course.  Thank you for any insight you can offer!

Hi, anyone can reach out via their web chat.

Imepik customer service reps have some technical knowledge and access to technical experts if need be.

Just head over to their website if you have questions.

 

Kind Regards,

Simon
