Examples:

A Lake Intro Skills Tandem run in Alberta (1:10) with 15 participants requires 2 instructors
Ratio would therefore be increased to 2:20 (2 x 1:10)
Course fee would therefore be 2 x $25 = $50 + $2.50 GST (5%) = $52.50
A Sea Kayaking Level 1 Skills run in Nova Scotia (1:6) with 8 participants requires either 2 Instructors or 1 Instructor + 1 ApprenticeFor 2 Instructors, ratio is increased to 2:12 (2 x 1:6) Course Fee would therefore be 2 x $25 = $50 + $7.50 HST (15%) = $57.50
or
For 1 Instructor + 1 Apprentice, ratio is 1:8 (1:8)
Course Fee would therefore be 1x $25 = $25 + $3.75 HST(15%) = $28.75

NOTE: The goal is to facilitate program growth, via the Mentorship process, across all Paddle Canada programs. Therefore, no additional fees are required for Apprentices.
