Introduction

Few people read Terms of Services Agreements. We hope that you will read ours.

This Terms of Service agreement is a legal agreement. It is an agreement between you, the user of services, and us, the provider of the services described in this agreement.

If you use the services we offer on this site, you must agree to the Terms of Services described in this Agreement.

By using services provided by CareerNet Nation, you agree to these Terms of Service.

The Terms of Services provide legal guidelines that you, and we, must follow.

In the context of this agreement and the services provided by CareerNet Nation, the words “we” and “us” mean all companies owned and operated by CareerNet Global, Inc.

CareerNet Global, Inc. owns CareerNet Nation, LearnNet, CareerNet Pro, Hiring Pro and CareerNet. Each of these names represents distinct services and products offered by CareerNet Global, Inc. to you. Each one is a separate division of CareerNet Global Inc. Staff members from each of these divisions work with each other to provide services to you.

Each division of CareerNet Global, Inc. has its own website. The websites are:

We amend the Terms of Services from time to time. We do this in response to changes in laws or directives by the numerous governments and agencies that oversee the industries we work within or create laws to protect consumers (you) or companies (us). When we amend the Terms of Services, we will notify all registered users of CareerNet Nation by email.

We ask you to follow the Terms of Services when you use services made available to you by us. Here they are in simple form:
