Learn More About Blended Courses

The Online Blended training format allows students to complete their training half online and half in class. It is a convenient option for those with busy schedules as the online portion is self-paced. In-class training is taught by a Canadian Red Cross instructor and will focus on hands-on skills based on the information students learned during the online portion.

Follow these steps to earn your certificate:

  1. Complete online portion in your own time
  2. Attend your in-class session

Traditional First Aid & CPR/AED

A person is practicing CPR on a mannequin, using both hands for chest compressions. Next to the mannequin, there is an AED with its pads being prepared for use. The scene takes place on a tiled floor.

I can’t say enough good things about Coast2Coast First Aid/CPR – Hamilton. This is now my third time using Coast2Coast for my First Aid and CPR certification, which I need for my job in security at Mohawk College, and every experience has been excellent. When it came time to renew my certification, Coast2Coast was my first choice. I had already had such positive experiences with them in the past that I didn’t really feel the need to look anywhere else. My instructor, Joyal Fernandez, was absolutely fantastic. He was knowledgeable, professional, patient, and made the course genuinely enjoyable. He explained everything clearly, gave us plenty of opportunities to practise the hands-on skills, and made sure we understood not just what to do in an emergency, but why we were doing it. That makes a huge difference when you’re learning skills you may actually have to rely on in the real world. Working in security, First Aid and CPR aren’t just certificates I need for employment — these are skills I could potentially have to use to help someone during an emergency. I left the course feeling refreshed, confident, and much better prepared because of Joyal’s instruction. Another thing I really appreciate is that Coast2Coast is a Canadian Red Cross Training Partner. Knowing that the training follows recognized Canadian Red Cross standards gives me even more confidence in the quality of the certification and the skills being taught. The entire Coast2Coast process has always been organized, professional, and straightforward, which is exactly why I keep coming back when it’s time to renew. A huge thank you to Joyal Fernandez and the Coast2Coast Hamilton team. I would absolutely recommend them to anyone needing First Aid and CPR training — especially anyone working in security or another field where these skills truly matter. 5 stars without hesitation. Coast2Coast was my first choice for renewal, and after another great experience, they’ll continue to be my first choice in the future.
Response from the owner:Thank you, Mathew! 💪 We agree, Joyal Fernandez is fantastic at preparing you for real-world security emergencies in Hamilton. It is great to hear that you feel confident after completing your recertification with us. We'd love to help your friends and family get certified too! – The Coast2Coast Team

User friendly setup and communication. Course was great, instructor was knowledgeable and personable. Course was laid out well, easy to grasp and understandable, hands on experience was great and all equipment was well cared for and in great condition. Aside from dealing with Hamilton traffic it was a great experience! 😅 Would definitely recommend, especially easy with how often their courses run, I have an insane schedule and easily found several dates/times that work for me!

I went to take my intermediate first aid course, and Maria was my instructor, an absolute sweet and caring person. Having a good experience there and the course was taught in multiple interactive ways too. My only feedback is that they have a 30min lunch break for a 9-5 day lol

My daughter and I completed the blended First Aid/AED/CPR Level C certification. The online portion of learning was easy to set up and laid out in a logical, comprehensive format. Our facilitator for the in class learning was excellent. Maria was organized, knowledgeable, and kept the course moving along at a good pace. She made accommodations for my daughter's different learning strengths and we both were successful in completing the course requirements for certification.
