Instructors
From SARA
This page has been created to provide SAR Alberta members with information on available instructional resources. Instructors and schools listed on this page are not endorsed by SAR Alberta and it is up to each group to confirm the credentials and qualifications of the instructors they employ as well as to ensure their courses meet any applicable standards.
If you are an instructor, school or course provider; please add your information to the pages below. If your subject category is not shown, please add it to the "Other" section. Please update your information as often as necessary to keep the pages current. If you teach in multiple categories, you may find it easier to create a page for yourself/school and simply link under each category to your page.
If you have questions, please contact Cindy Heselton cindy_heselton@yahoo.ca
