Hello everyone,
I am a new grad RN from Toronto Canada. I would like to work as a CPR instructor in the GTA. I tried looking up but could not find any valuable information about how to get started? Does anybody know what is the process like? Thanks,

I know there are significant differences in the US (where I am) and Canadian Health care systems but being a CPR Instructor has been a benefit for me as an RN.
When I was a new nurse, it helped me be more comfortable/ competent in providing patient education. It also benefitted me as this was a selling point with employers since I can provide this education to our agency and CPR certification is required for many employees (not just nurses).
