Certifications
This certifies I am able to diagnose and treat concussions. This course provided me with the proper action required when a player sustains a suspected concussion.
This certifies that I am qualified to give necessary first aid actions on those in need. This has proven useful in my athletic training with the North Island Silvertips. There have been multiple instances where players were unconscious, concussed, cut, or injured where this course has proven useful.
Being a leader is much more than a certification. In sport, you are a role model, influencing young and old, your actions can be very impactful. In combination with VIU's leadership course, I feel like I have the knowledge and skills to effectively adapt and lead in many scenarios.
As a team trainer, I strive to make the game as safe as possible. This certification taught me necessary knowledge regarding interpersonal conflicts, ethical scenarios, discrimination, violence, and injuries.
StrongerU is a senior focused organization providing excellent resources to encourage physical activity. Geratrics has been a focus of mine through my degree and I increased my involvement by applying for a position at StrongerU. I currently teach weekly classes with a focus on cardiovascular exercise, strength increase, and flexibility.
This exercise prescription course was incredibly educational. We overviewed common injuries while discussing the best rehabilitation exercise. Mr. Hunt was educated, informed, and current.
