Description
This course was created by the Canada Safety Council and teaches youth the fundamental skills necessary to care for younger children. This course includes basic first aid skills, managing challenging behaviours, and encourages confidence and responsibility in the youth. This course does not include CPR instruction. The Power House Youth Centre version of this course is delivered over three days (as opposed to the traditional one-day course) to allow for a slower pace of learning, snack breaks, and additional instructor support. Participants must attend all 3 sessions and pass an exam on the final day to receive their certification.
