EVALUATION OF BC HOCKEY MANDATED CONCUSSION TRAINING

Posted by Oceanside MHA on Jun 14 2017 at 03:32PM PDT

Dr. Shelina Babul at the University of British Columbia, in partnership with BC Hockey, is evaluating the concussion educational training mandated by BC Hockey last year. BC Hockey announced in June, 2016, at their AGM held in Sun Peaks, BC, that all BC Hockey on-ice team officials are required to complete the Concussion Awareness Training Tool (CATT) prior to their participation in any practice or games starting the 2016–2017 hockey season.

We are requesting that any individuals who have completed this concussion training complete a short online questionnaire with a time commitment of approximately 5-10 minutes.

All participants who qualify and complete the questionnaire will be entered into a draw for an Apple Watch, as well as items from BC Hockey.

All responses will be anonymous. Your email address will be kept confidential and used only to enter you in the prize draw.

Please follow the link below to complete the questionnaire: Evaluation of BC Hockey Mandated Concussion Training.
