Die ist ein Angebot des österreichischen Bildungsministeriums für einen kostenlosen Psychologiekurs.
Publisher’s rating: Die genannten Institutionen bieten keine kostenlosen Psychologiekurse an. Die Links in den Werbeanzeigen führen lediglich zu Linklisten zum Thema psychologische Ausbildung.
The review found that the named institutions, including Austria’s Federal Ministry of Education, said they did not offer the advertised free psychology courses. The ads’ links led instead to lists of links about psychology training, and the review notes that the advertised routes to becoming a psychologist or psychotherapist require years of study and have eligibility requirements.

"رسميًا اللغة الصينية في المرحلة المتوسطة"
Publisher’s rating: اتضح لأنير أن هذا الادعاء مضلل؛ حيث قمنا بالتحقق من الصفحة الرسمية لوزارة التربية والتعليم - ليبيا على منصة فيسبوك والتي أفادت في منشور لها بتاريخ 6 أغسطس 2024، بمتابعة الوزارة للجنة المكلفة بدراسة إدراج اللغات الأجنبية (الفرنسية-الإيطالية) كلغات اختيارية للمرحلة الثانوية، ودراسة استصدار إذن بالتعاقد مع معلمي اللغتين الفرنسية والإيطالية في ليبيا، وليس اللغة الصينية. وعند البحث أكثر بهذه التفاصيل، رصد فريقنا مصدر الإدعاء المتداول على منصة فيسبوك، واتضح أنه مبني على قرار حديث لدولة السعودية باعتماد اللغة الصينية بشكل رسمي في المرحلة الابتدائية والمتوسطة بقطاع التعليم. بناء على ما سبق قرر فريق أنير تصنيف الادعاء على أنه مضلل؛ لأن وزارة التربية والتعليم الليبية تدرس إدراج اللغتين الفرنسية والإيطالية في مناهج التعليم الثانوي وليس اللغة الصينية في التعليم المتوسط.
