Not Sure Which Course to Take?

Please see below for provincial course recommendations according to industry/occupation. If you are taking a course for a workplace requirement, please also check with your employer which course they recommend, as standards may be different across organizations. 

Please be aware that once a certificate is issued, it is not possible to make changes or upgrade it. Therefore, if you register for the incorrect course and do not inform us of the required change prior to your certificate being issued, you will need to register for the new course for the full fees in order to attain an additional certification. Please always double check your requirements before booking. 

*Please note that Life Preservers will not be held responsible if a participant registers for the wrong course. This guide outlines general trends, however it is the responsibility of the participant to confirm their course requirements with their school, employer or governing body.
