Mississauga Boating License Course

If you’re planning on spending time on the water in and around Mississauga, it’s important to have a valid boating license. A boating license ensures that you have the knowledge and skills necessary to safely operate a boat and helps to protect you, your passengers, and other boaters on the water.

To get a boating license in Mississauga, you’ll need to pass a boating safety course and exam. The best way to prepare for the exam is to take a boating safety course from a recognized provider, such as MyBoatCard.com. Our course is Transport Canada approved, convenient, easy to understand, and can be completed online at your own pace.

Once you’ve completed the course, you’ll need to pass the exam in order to receive your boating license. The exam consists of multiple-choice questions that test your knowledge of boating safety and rules of the road on the water. You can take the exam online through MyBoatCard.com or at a testing center in Mississauga.

After you pass the exam, you’ll receive your Mississauga boating license, which is valid for life. It’s important to keep your boating license with you when you’re on the water, as it may be requested by law enforcement or other authorities.
