First Aid, CPR & BLS Certification: Frequently Asked Questions
Answers based on Ontario WSIB rules, Canadian Red Cross policy, and Milton course options.
Most Milton workplaces require Intermediate First Aid (previously called Standard First Aid) with CPR/AED Level C. This WSIB approved program meets Ontario's OHS Act and CSA Z1210:24 standards, and many Ontario employers require employees to hold valid first aid certification. It runs about two days, while Basic First Aid (previously called Emergency First Aid) runs one day for low-risk sites.
We offer CPR-A, CPR-B, and CPR-C certifications. CPR/AED Level C covers adults, children, and infants and includes hands-on AED use. Training aligns with the CSA Z1210:24 standard, and CPR/AED certification is valid for three years. No prerequisites are required, and participants must achieve a minimum grade of 75%.
Basic Life Support (BLS-HCP) is a Canadian Red Cross program for healthcare professionals such as nurses and first responders.
