The foundation was established as a non profit organization so that it could raise funds to conduct the courses. The courses consist of 5 modules requiring 20-30 minutes study time with a test at the end.upon passing the test a certicate is issued with copies to the alabama recreation and parks association which has members in local, county, state and private recreation organizations throughout the state of alabama.
