Online Blended Training Did you know you can complete half of your First Aid & CPR/AED training online? With the Online Blended course format, complete half of your training online, then come to class for a shorter period of time compared to the Traditional All In-Class training format. At Coast2Coast, we provide private Halifax First Aid & CPR/AED training in the Online Blended format, making it simple to earn a certificate from the Canadian Red Cross.
The online portion must be completed prior to the student’s in-class date and can be done in the student’s own time. This means you can fully digest the theory before coming into class. After completing the online portion, you must attend the in-class portion to practice hands-on skills. Learn skills such as CPR, bandaging, how to handle poisons and more.
The Online Blended format is a great way for those with busy schedules to earn a certificate as they only need to dedicate eight hours or less in a classroom. If you are unsure of which course to sign up for, please visit our Which Course Should I Take? Page. Recertification Training Looking to recertify your First Aid & CPR/AED certificate? Coast2Coast provides private Halifax First Aid & CPR/AED Recertification courses for those who need to update their certificate. Our Recertification courses are designed to refresh your memory on life-saving skills you have previously learned, boosting your confidence to help someone in need.
Recertification courses are taught by highly skilled Canadian Red Cross instructors who use top of the line training equipment. Practice the skills you once learned in addition to any new techniques that may have been implemented since your last first aid & CPR/AED course.
Each of the Recertification certificates expire after three years, so it is important to register and attend a course prior to that date. Enroll your group for a private Halifax First Aid & CPR/AED Recertification course and be on your way to saving lives!

I recently completed the hybrid online and in-person Standard First Aid and CPR C course, and it was excellent from start to finish. The registration process was smooth and straightforward, and the online learning platform was easy to navigate and well organized.

The in-person portion of the course was equally well run. Our instructor, Azra, was clear, knowledgeable, and very supportive throughout the training. She demonstrated each skill thoroughly and provided helpful guidance while we practiced. I especially appreciated how she explained the rationale behind the care being provided, which made it much easier to understand and remember the steps.

Overall, it was a very well-structured course that balanced online learning with hands-on practice effectively. I would highly recommend this course to anyone needing Standard First Aid and CPR training.

I recently completed the Emergency First Aid/CPR training at this location, and it was a really engaging and enjoyable experience. Our instructor, Joseph, explained complex procedures—like using a tourniquet and placing someone in the recovery position—in a way that was easy to understand. He kept the class interesting by sharing personal experiences and giving us real life situations to act out. I’m really glad we had him as our instructor—he made the 8-hour training feel like it flew by.
Highly recommend this training to anyone, it is such an important skill everyone should have.
Thanks again to Joseph for making it such a great experience.
