What is the Equivalency Achievement Program?
The Equivalency Achievement Program enables high school teachers to instruct their students in Athletic Injury Management, Sport Taping & Strapping, and Sport Nutrition Level 1 by providing them with approved Alberta Learning resources, class texts, curriculum's and additional course materials. This program is done in conjunction with Career and Technology Studies (CTS). Upon successful completion of the program students are eligible to receive the SMCA Certificates of Achievement.
For teachers wanting to teach Athletic Injury Management, Sport Taping & Strapping, or Sport Nutrition Level 1 we require that the teacher needs to take the course first to receive their certificate of achievement. Click here to view current courses!
Once you have completed the course you are then eligible to teach it to your students. After the students have been taught the course you can email executivedirector@sportmedab.ca the list of student names who have completed the course and the certificates can be sent directly to the teacher to be handed out or an address can be provided to us to have them directly mailed to the student.
