Your Guide to the Training Program
Use the Learners Program Guide to find out how the Recreation North Training Program works and to understand your responsibilities as a participant.
Please note that we have two new policies. Effective September 2025,
- Participation in conference calls is required. However, if life gets in the way, ask your trainer for an alternate activity.
- Learners registered in a certificate stream are asked to let us know if they cannot participate for a while. If we don't hear from you for a few months, you will be enrolled to make space for others.
