Certifications
There are a number of positions at camp that require specific certification. We provide and pay for the majority of these certifications. It is important to note that certifications are not our standard criteria for hiring staff, nor do they ensure one’s capabilities. We want well trained, committed staff that are knowledgeable of their responsibilities.
- CPR and First-Aid
-
Camp provides basic CPR and First-Aid through the American Red Cross prior to staff training free of charge. The CPR certification lasts 1 year while First-Aid lasts 3 years. This certification is required for all counselors. If you have these certifications before coming to camp, cards must be presented.
Additional Certifications
Depending on the area you work in, we may ask you to attend a certification course. These may include training in life guarding, riflery, archery, rock climbing, mountain biking, canoeing, low ropes course facilitation and more. If deemed necessary for you to attend, camp will pay the fees associated with the course.
