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 honestly didn’t expect a CPR class to be this enjoyable! Ashraf made the whole experience easy to follow, engaging, and even funny at times. The way he explained things was clear and practical, which really helped build confidence instead of stress.

Time flew by, and I actually had fun while learning something so important. Highly recommend this class—especially with Ashraf as the instructor!

What a fun, interactive course with El Hamy. He's such a good instructor, and I really enjoyed his fun humour. He made the lesson less dry and more interactive, making it easier to learn with him. Couldn't have done it with him at the end. I passed the course with a 97%!!! Thank you El Hamy Zakahary.

Maria was our instructor today for our 1st Aid course and I really appreciate her kindness and support for all of the participants. She kept us all engaged in the content and made everyone feel comfortable. It is a long day where everyone just wants to go home by the end, however she brought a diverse group of strangers together to act as a team to complete the course.

I had the best experience with Kia. He was our instructor, he was very thorough and very knowledgeable. I learned so much from him and he made the course so fun. Time flew!
Jane Reyes

Kia is not your typical instructor he is a doctor by profession, and it shows in every single lesson. What sets him apart is that he does not just teach you how to do things; he explains the why behind every technique, giving you the kind of deep understanding that actually sticks. His medical background brings a level of insight that you simply cannot get from a standard training session.

What truly surprised me was how fast a full-day lecture flew by. Kia has an incredible way of delivering lessons engaging, energetic, and never dull for a single moment. Learning CPR and first aid could easily feel heavy or stressful, but he makes it genuinely enjoyable and even fun. You leave the room not just certified, but truly confident.

Above everything, you can feel that this man has a real heart for helping people. He does not just go through the motions he inspires you to step up, act with good intentions, and genuinely make a difference when it counts. Highly recommend him to anyone looking for a first aid and CPR course that is both world-class and deeply human.

I had such a great experience today! Our instructor Ali was amazing — he explained everything in a very clear and easy-to-understand way. The class was not only informative but also fun, and practicing first aid didn’t feel stressful at all.

Time flew by so quickly, which says a lot! I’m really happy I took this course and would definitely recommend it.

I had a fantastic experience taking my first aid course at this center. It was a very engaging and valuable learning day. The instructor, Ali, explained everything clearly, brought great humor to the class, and was incredibly patient in addressing all questions and concerns.
I learned and practiced a wide range of first aid skills, and I now feel much more confident in my ability to help others in emergency situations.
If you’re considering getting your first aid certification, I highly recommend this place!
