Our Recertification courses have been designed to refresh your First Aid and CPR/AED knowledge and hands-on skills.

I just finished a standard first aid course taught by Ahmed Elsaid. He made all the course materials easy to digest and was very helpful with any and all questions I had. He also made it rather fun by including activities for the group to participate in so it made the 8 hour in person portion pass by before I knew it. I would highly recommend Coast2coast for all your safety certification needs, the entire process felt very streamlined and simple.

I had a great experience with the CPR & First Aid training. The instructor, Kia, was amazing. Not only did he teach us the necessary skills, but he also explained the reasoning behind each step, which made a huge difference in understanding.

The course was very instructive: it felt like a blend of human anatomy, hands-on training, and even some physics. Because of this approach, I now have a much deeper understanding of why we perform certain techniques, not just how to do them.

I feel much more confident and prepared to use these skills if needed, and I truly appreciate the quality of the training.
