- H Impulse (160.01 to 320.00 Newtons seconds impulse)
The modeler must demonstrate his ability to build and fly a rocket containing at least one H impulse class motor. Cluster or staged models used for certification may not contain over 320.00 Newton seconds total impulse. Only certified motors are permitted. The modeler must assemble the reloadable motor, if used, in the presence of a certification team member.
A written examination is required to demonstrate knowledge of the regulations and laws pertaining to high power rocketry in Canada. Questions concerning basic rocket technical knowledge, e.g. center of pressure and center of gravity relationships, will also be included.
- - The questions will come from a 48 question pool.
- - Twenty-five of the questions will be related to Transport Canada Regulations, the applicant must answer all the Transport Canada questions correctly (passing grade is 100%).
- - The balance of the questions have a passing grade of 75%.
- - The test may be taken only once in a 30 day period.
- - The test must be completed prior to the flight attempt.
- - Tests will be graded before a certification attempt.
- - The written test will not have to be repeated if the flight attempt is completed within 1 year of taking the written test.
- - Tests are available from Area Directors, Club presidents, or CAR/ACF representatives at a HPR launch.
Certification at this level permits single or multiple motor rocket flights with motors having a maximum total impulse of 320.00 Newton seconds (H Implulse).
- I Impulse (320.01 to 640.00 Newton seconds impulse)
The modeler must demonstrate his ability to build and fly a rocket containing one I impulse class motor. Cluster or staged models used for certification may not contain over 640.00 Newton seconds total impulse. Only certified motors are permitted. The modeler must assemble the reloadable or hybrid motor, if used, in the presence of a certification team member.
Certification at this level permits single or multiple motor rocket flights with motors having a maximum total impulse of 640.00 Newton seconds (I Impulse).
- J - L Impulse (640.01 to 5120.00 Newton seconds impulse)
The modeler must demonstrate his ability to build and fly a rocket containing one J, K or L impulse class motor. Cluster or staged models used for certification may not contain over 5120.00 Newton seconds total impulse. Only certified motors are permitted. The modeler must assemble the reloadable or hybrid motor, if used, in the presence of a certification team member
Typically the modeler will certify at Level 3 using a single J class motor and work up in power with experience. Although not required by this document it is the recommended method.
Certification at this level permits single or multiple motor rocket flights with motors having a maximum total impulse of 5120.00 Newton seconds (J-LI Impulse).

From this site, I understand CTI is manufacturing and distributing hypertek equipment: https://hypertekhybrids.com/mainpage.html.
Last updated in 2002 though, so perhaps someone else can confirm.
Hmm . . . Website not updated in 17 years and all product links say "call dealer" or "discontinued" . . . Most likely, OOP !

HOWEVER, there are some Dealers listed :

There are 2 websites for Contrail, https://contrailrockets.com and contrailrockets.net , there is also facebook which some new R&D stuff was added. Both websites are valid the older website has the webstore which I believe still works.

My understanding is Contrail, although I could open shop as a SkyRipper dealer if you saw my workshop. Fabulous hardware and overall system design!
I’ve been purchasing and using Contrail 38, 54 & 75 mm motor hardware and reloads for the last few years. While the website doesn’t appear to have been updated for a while, everything I’ve wanted from their inventory, I’ve received.
The AIAA have some books on hybrid propulsion. Here is an example: https://arc.aiaa.org/doi/book/10.2514/4.866876
Sometimes if you are buying lots of books it can pay to become a member to get discount pricing. That is one of the main reasons I am a member.

Or to be "buddies" with someone who is . . . LOL !
Very true. Wouldn't be the first time
