First Aid & CPR Certification — Frequently Asked Questions
Answers based on Ontario WSIB rules and Red Cross policy — no guesswork.
Most Ontario workplaces require Intermediate/Standard First Aid with CPR/AED Level C, covering adult, child, and infant. It is the minimum standard under Ontario's OHS Act. WSIB approved certificates are required (online-only ones are not accepted), and we issue them within 48 hours. No prerequisites are needed.
These are two names for the same course, the Ontario Standard First Aid certification, renamed Intermediate First Aid in 2022. Most workplaces require this level. Certificates are valid three years and renewable within 90 days of expiry at a 75% minimum grade. No prerequisites.
Our Midtown Toronto facility is at 67 Taunton Road, steps from Yonge & Eglinton and served by Eglinton and Davisville TTC stations. Coast2Coast also runs other certified training locations across the GTA — register for any of them on our website.
CPR/AED Level C certification is valid for 3 years. Recertification must be done with the same certifying body, so a Lifesaving Society certificate cannot be recertified with the Red Cross, and you would take the full course instead. Standard First Aid recertification is available once, within 90 days of expiry; if it expired more than 90 days ago, the full course is required.
Yes. BLS replaced CPR-HCP in April 2019. It is the Red Cross standard for healthcare professionals and first responders, covering high-performance CPR and opioid overdose response. BLS is valid one year and is mandatory for clinical roles like nurses, paramedics, and hospital staff. No prerequisites; non-clinical workers should take Standard First Aid.
AEDs are common across the GTA in offices, transit hubs, schools, and gyms, and every course includes hands-on AED trainer practice. CPR provides a crucial 10-second window to initiate life-saving efforts, and every minute without CPR reduces survival odds by 7 to 10%, so bystander action significantly improves survival rates. WSIB regulations align CPR training with CSA Z1210:24 standards. A CPR pocket mask is required for participation.
WSIB approved certificates are issued within 48 hours of completion, often the same or next business day. You will need a minimum grade of 75% and 100% attendance. For blended courses, online access is emailed within 24 hours of registration. Contact us for group bookings of 8 or more.
Yes. Our Babysitting Course teaches Basic First Aid and child care and is designed for youth aged 11 to 15 years old, and certification is often required for babysitting jobs. Younger children can take Stay Safe! for core safety skills.
