CONNECTEZ-VOUS À NAVIGAR MAINTENANT
Getting Started
How do I get access to Navigar?
Navigar is currently available only to members of the IT Group. If you are an IT Group member, you can create your Navigar account and get immediate access.
Why do I have to use a personal email address to access Navigar?
There are a lot of good reasons for your training information to be linked to a non-work email:
- It ensures that you will continue to have access to Navigar, even if you change jobs/email address.
- Some training plans can only be linked to one email account, so it allows your employer to provide you training through your work email and allow your personal training history to remain intact and separate from any work plans.
I have already activated Navigar using a work email. When I make the change to a personal email, can I still access Skillsoft (Percipio) and goFLUENT?
Yes, you can still access those training platforms with the original email you used when you first created your account.
You can also access their account settings to change your email address to match the one on your Navigar account.
Can I change my email address in my Navigar account?
Yes. Just let us know the email address that you’d like to use and we’ll make the change for you.
Keep in mind that we need a non-work email address. If you don’t want to use a personal email address, you can request a PIPSC email or create a new email address dedicated to training e.g My_IT_Training2025@gmail.com.
What if I don’t see my job title in the list?
We have thousands of job titles in our database, but we don’t have every job title.
Use the job title description that best matches yours and then edit your skill levels as needed to get the most relevant recommendations.
Then let us know the missing job title and we’ll work on adding it to our list.
What if the future career I want isn’t listed?
We have thousands of careers in our database but we don’t have every career.
Use the career description that best matches the one you’re interested in to ensure you’re getting the most relevant training recommendations.
Then let us know the missing career title and we’ll work on adding it to our list.
What if I’m interested in more than one career?
You can bookmark more than one career. Just click on the flag icon in the corner of each career information box to save it to your list.
What if I’m unsure or want to change my future career choice?
You can easily change careers or bookmark as many careers as you like to review the skills and training for each.
Just click on the flag icon in the corner of each career information box to save it.
Can I use Navigar even if I don’t register for any training?
Yes, Navigar is a career planning tool that you can use to do several things, such as:
- Explore and discover career options relevant to your current skill sets.
- Learn about different skill sets and how to strengthen a specific skill.
- Learn about the future of work and how to prepare for coming changes.
- Identify the skills and gaps between where you are in your career today and where you want to go next.

Why did I get a notice that my course is expiring?
Our learning partners always want to keep their content up-to-date so they regularly update existing content. Though, they always provide you with enough notice to complete the course. After content is retired, you can no longer access it, but the record of your activity with that content will still appear on your Learning Activity page.
If you’ve completed the training, remember to manually update your Training Plan so that it’s captured in Navigar as well.

What if I want to move my Training History from another Pluralsight account?
Pluralsight advises not to transfer history between plans (active or inactive) to keep the integrity of data intact and to maintain a separation between personal and business data.
If you still want to transfer history from one account to another, you can reach their support team at support@pluralsight.com.

Can I use some of the Project Management courses to gain PDUs for PMI to keep my PMP certification active?
Yes. Pluralsight has information on this here.
Why does my name in Pluralsight not appear the way I have provided it to PIPSC?
Pluralsight has limitations on what characters it can accept via their API, including accents and parentheses. To support this, we’ve had to modify how your name appears in your Navigar account.
We always want to be respectful of preferences.
You can edit your name directly in your Pluralsight account and, if you would like your name corrected in Navigar, please just let us know and we will take care of that for you.

What is goFLUENT?
