RRP DESIGNATION
Community Rehabilitation and Disability Studies (CRDS) offers
courses that apply towards certification as a Registered Rehabilitation
Professional (RRP) through the Canadian Association of Rehabilitation
Professionals (CARP). On page two of the RRP Application guide,
it is stated that "degrees must include the following core
competencies to be considered approved" for RRP certification:
|
|
Assessment Approaches
|
|
|
Disabling Condition and/or Disadvantaged Groups
|
|
|
Intervention and Strategies
|
|
|
History and Systems
|
|
|
Ethics
|
|
|
Communication Skills (Not offered at the University of
Calgary through distance education.)
|
|
For further information on RRP requirements
please visit www.carpnational.org.
|
We offer all of these courses on-line, other than Communication
Skills. We believe that this course is best taken at a local institution
in order to develop the skill-base.
The following are 20 hour courses that fulfill the RRP requirements.
