Guide to the Training Program

1. Welcome

Welcome to the Recreation North Training Program designed for anyone who works or volunteers in community recreation. If you are (or want to become) a recreation coordinator or programmer, a youth leader, board member, coach, or fitness leaders, or a day camp or after school leader, you will find our training to be flexible, meaningful and relevant. 

Register for one or more of our 19 learning events (mini-courses) or choose to earn a Certificate in Northern Recreation Leadership or Management. When you participate, you become part of a network of leaders who contribute to individual, community and environmental health and wellbeing across the North. 

The Training Program provides accessible, relevant learning for recreation leaders across the North. With generous funding from the Arctic Inspiration Prize,  Recreation North developed and piloted the Program launched in the Fall of 2018.

As this video shows, Recreation North is committed to strengthening recreation capacity across the North through meaningful and accessible training. Recreation North is a partnership of the three territorial recreation and parks associations.

• Recreation and Parks Association of the Yukon 
  
• NWT Recreation and Parks Association
  
• Recreation and Parks Association of Nunavut
