In BC, the BC Recreation and Parks Association (BCRPA) is the exclusive provider of the National Fitness Leadership Alliance (NFLA) Performance Standards.  These standards are the highest in Canada so meeting these standards means that your BCRPA registration will be recognized across Canada.

Step 3) Complete the Basic CPR First Aid Course<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Step 4) Submit Documentation & Register with BCRPA<\/a> (a $105 Fee)<\/h4>\n\n\n\n
