NRP INSTRUCTOR UPDATE COURSES
Starting in January 2012, the Alberta Perinatal Health Program (APHP) has scheduled a series of NRP Instructor Update courses to introduce the new 6th edition Neonatal Resuscitation Program (NRP) materials. In Canada, current NRP instructors are required to attend a NRP Instructor Update course every 3 years to maintain their instructor status. The APHP is pleased to offer this update course free of charge to NRP instructors in Alberta and NWT, however, no food or beverage will be provided. Participants are welcome to bring their own food/beverage although there is no refrigerator in the classroom. Participants can also purchase food from the hospital cafeteria.
NRP instructor update courses are scheduled as follows:
