Pass your citizenship test
Walk into your citizenship test knowing you’re ready. CitzCan turns Discover Canada, the official guide every test question comes from, into short lessons and quick quizzes.
Built on the official study guide
Every question on the citizenship test comes from Discover Canada, the study guide published by Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada. CitzCan follows it chapter by chapter, heading by heading, so you study exactly what the test covers.
Same chapters, same order
Lessons carry the guide’s own titles, so you always know where you are in the book.
Plain language
Long, dense passages become short lessons, with hard words explained.
Guess first. Remember more.
Every topic in CitzCan starts with a question you can’t answer yet. That’s on purpose. Psychologists call it the pretesting effect. Trying to answer before you learn, even when you’re wrong, helps the right answer stick.
In the study, students who guessed before reading remembered 75% of the answers, compared with 56% for students who only read.
Less studying. More remembering.
