Scarborough Instructor Development Transfer Course
Our Canadian Red Cross First Aid Instructor Transfer program in Scarborough can help you take your career to the next level. This certification enables students to teach Canadian Red Cross First Aid courses, including CPR, Basic/Emergency First Aid, Intermediate/Standard First Aid, Child Care First Aid, and Marine Basic First Aid.
With prior expertise, candidates may qualify for the Instructor Development Program in one of two ways:
- They are First Aid instructors from another ministry-approved First Aid agency
- They are either be a Canadian Red Cross Water Safety Instructor or Instructor Trainer, or an educator at the elementary or secondary level
Candidates will be trained via one of the following methods, depending on which category they fall into: Those who fall under group 1 will take their pre-existing First Aid knowledge & expertise from other organizations and build upon it with the Red Cross First Aid training program.
Once the candidate’s skills and prerequisites are checked, they may begin the Fundamentals of Instruction component. This is 8 hours online and 14.5 hours in class. Once complete, the candidate may skip the Discipline-Specific component as they have knowledge in teaching First Aid & CPR. Finally, they will have a brief in-class Teaching Experience.
Candidates who meet the requirements of group 2 will have a slightly different pathway. To complete this course path, the applicant must first pass a skills assessment and pass the necessary prerequisites. Since these candidates have experience as an educator or a Red Cross certified Water Safety Instructor, they are exempt from taking the Fundamentals of Instruction component and will move directly to the Discipline-Specific component. After they complete the Discipline-Specific component, participants will gain experience in teaching through practice sessions with their peers.
Candidates who successfully complete the course will be issued a certificate that is valid for 3 years. Start your journey today!
