Blended First Aid & CPR/AED Courses The Online Blended delivery format of our First Aid and CPR/AED courses has been newly developed by the Canadian Red Cross, making it simpler to receive your certificate. With the Online Blended format, half of your training will be done online through the Canadian Red Cross website.

Read through First Aid and CPR theory modules and complete games and short quizzes to help yourself understand the material. After completing the online portion, you will come to class to focus on hands-on training.

One of our hand-selected Canadian Red Cross instructors will teach you the skills required to perform CPR or First Aid. Although the overall length of training is the same as our traditional in-class training, the time you spend in the classroom will be reduced by half through the Online Blended program. If you are unsure of which course to sign up for, please visit our Which Course Should I Take? page.

First Aid & CPR/AED Recertification Courses

Recertification courses are for those who have completed their First Aid and/or CPR training within the past three years and need to renew it. To qualify for a recertification course, you must have a valid (not expired) Canadian Red Cross certificate from a full training program. This means that you cannot recertify a previous recertification course.

These First Aid and CPR/AED recertification courses are designed to refresh your memory and skills. Each course can be completed in a shorter period of time than the full course, but it will still cover all previous material.

It is important to take the recertification course as new methods and techniques evolve, requiring course material to be updated. Stay up to date with the latest information by registering today!

Who is this for?

Construction Workers, Daycare Staff, ECEs, Personal Support Workers (PSWs), Coaches, Security Guards, and students.

Certification Provided

3-year Canadian Red Cross certificate (valid for WSIB).
Note: If you need BLS for healthcare, please select the Healthcare course option.

I had Ali as my instructor. He knows how to structure the basic principals of first aid and when to use cpr into an intuitive 8 hour practical lesson. I understood my role and responsibilities as a certified first aid responder. Maintaining someone's life, before the ambulance and paramedics arrive, is an initiative I always wished to take on. I'm glad to be certified and reliable in any case around family, friends, work and strangers.

Coast2Coast is the best.
Response from the owner:Thank you, jam water! We agree, Ali is fantastic at structuring the basic principles of first aid into an intuitive practical lesson.
