viaSport and the Regional Alliance are pleased to invite applicants to become a multi-sport Learning Facilitator (LF) in BC for NCCP Make Ethical Decisions (MED) and NCCP Fundamental Movement Skills (FMS).
What is a Learning Facilitator?

An LF should have the appropriate knowledge, skills, and attitudes to facilitate workshops using the competency-based approach. In addition, they serve as contributing members of the community and ambassadors for the NCCP.
