Snowmobile Safety Training - Portage College 2000
January 2000 Portage College at Lac La Biche, AB
In the late 1990’s the Alberta Snowmobile Association partnered with the Portage College of Lac La Biche to develop an industry recognized snowmobile safety training program. The certificate course is recognized by the Alberta Workman’s Compensation Board and Occupational Health & Safety.
In January of 2000 the first group of instructors took part in the Train the Trainer program.
Lori and 5 month old Monica braved nearly 600 km of blowing snow, icy roads and limited visibility to participate…dedicated or crazy, we are still not sure. There are now more than 40 certified Snowmobile Safety instructors throughout the province.
