Brief Description of Progress
During the course of the BC Safety Sendout Project, we
- identified 16 individuals who lead or influence other paddlers
- used the grant money to pay for their attendance at our annual RCABC Paddle Conference free of charge
- provided a boating safety syllabus based on known and documented causes of boating deaths
- held a training session specifically for the Sendout participants
- confirmed through testing that participants learned the content
- insured that participants passed their knowledge on to secondary learners
- confirmed through reporting questionnaires
o that secondary teaching occurred, and
o that the number of secondary trainees exceeded expectations
What we have accomplished
We have trained a group of paddling leaders in order that they could in turn train others about safe boating practices, and we have insured that they have completed this task.
