Certification — Frequently Asked Questions

Answers based on Ontario WSIB rules, Canadian Red Cross policy, and Kingston course options.

Most jobs require Intermediate/Standard First Aid & CPR/AED Level C, the WSIB approved first aid minimum for Ontario workplaces. The card is valid three years. Enroll today.

It teaches resuscitation for all ages, which includes adults, children and infants, plus choking care and AED use.

This blended first aid and CPR program pairs online theory with practical skills: after the online module you attend one day of in person training here.

Arrive at 734 Montreal St (second floor) in comfortable clothing. Free parking is on site. The day typically includes a scheduled lunch break, so bring a lunch or buy one nearby. Expect practical skills work throughout. 

Online registration is easy: view the schedule, select a date that suits you, and register. You can enroll today for a class in Kingston.

We serve residents and individuals across Eastern Ontario, including Napanee and Gananoque, and sit close to the Queen's and St. Lawrence College campus.

Basic Life Support suits nurses, paramedics and clinical staff, and is valid one year. A shorter BLS Renewal is available to current cardholders. Learn more about this program.

Recertification can be completed once, within 90 days of your card's expiry. You must hold a current Red Cross certificate; we cannot recertify cards from other providers.

Two youth courses are taught here: Babysitting for ages 11-15 and Stay Safe! for ages 9-13. Unlike adult cards, youth certification never expires.

Participants can add a two-hour Airway Management module. This training covers suction devices and oral airways (OPAs) for complex breathing emergencies.

We offer private first aid and CPR for groups of eight or more at your site, ideal for businesses and campus organisations. Request a private group booking.
