First Aid & CPR Instructor Course in Newmarket

Nothing can match the thrill of leading a team of professionals who are looking out for the community during times of difficulties. The Canadian Red Cross Instructor Development course in Newmarket provides potential instructors with the skills needed to teach First Aid & CPR courses. Our Instructor Development program is inclusive and provides a guide on teaching individuals and groups, facilitating, preventing injury, progress learning, and much more.

After the candidate has completed the evaluation and prerequisites for the course, they can start with Fundamentals of Instruction component. This component includes 8 hours of online training, as well as a 14.5-hour in-class component spread out over 2 days. Following this, participants will attend the Discipline-Specific classroom component which is an additional 2 days of training.

The final step to becoming a certified Instructor is leading teaching sessions by showcasing their teaching skills under the supervision of an instructor trainer. Candidates will receive an e-certificate that is valid for three years after successful completion. Certified instructors can teach CPR, as well as Emergency First Aid, Standard First Aid, Marine Basic First Aid, Emergency Child Care First Aid, Standard Child Care First Aid, and other courses.

Do you want to share your knowledge with new or existing medical responders? Our Canadian Red Cross Professional Responders Instructor course in Newmarket strives to teach candidates the specific abilities required to instruct advanced courses such as First Responder (FR) and Emergency Medical Responder (EMR). Incorporating active participation, instruction in a variety of settings, and organizing unique sessions create a more engaging learning experience. With little training time needed, this allows instructors to teach important First Aid courses.

Candidates who meet the prerequisites and pass the evaluation for the course may begin with the Fundamentals of Instruction component. Before attending an in-class session, candidates must complete an 8-hour online course. Under the direction of an Instructor Trainer, they will demonstrate their knowledge and skills acquired from the theoretical component in the classroom component. After finishing the first stage, candidates may advance to a two-day Discipline-Specific component that prepares them to teach Professional Responder courses. Individuals may then teach in a dynamic learning environment and upon successful completion of the course, candidates will receive their certificates.

Certifications need to be renewed every three years. We will check to ensure that the candidate has completed all of the courses and components they are willing to teach in order to validate their Teaching Credential. The following are some of the courses that one may teach as an instructor: BLS Instructor, First Responder Instructor, or Emergency Medical Responder Instructor.

Our Canadian Red Cross First Aid Instructor Transfer Course in Newmarket will help you boost your job prospects by giving you the skills and information required to teach a variety of Red Cross safety courses such as CPR, Emergency First Aid, Standard First Aid, Child Care First Aid, and Marine Basic First Aid.

Candidates with prior experience may qualify for the Instructor Development Transfer course if they meet one of the following two circumstances:

  1. If the instructor is approved by another First Aid organization
  2. If the individual is either a Canadian Red Cross Water Safety Instructor/Instructor Trainer or an educator at an elementary or secondary level

Depending on which conditions the candidate meets, their training will follow one of these paths:

  1. Those who qualify for the first condition will learn how to apply what they’ve learned from other First Aid programs to the Red Cross’s program. Before becoming certified as an instructor, potential candidates will still need to pass a skills evaluation and meet course prerequisites before starting the Fundamentals of Instruction component. When candidates complete the preceding processes, they may skip the Discipline-Specific component as they already know what skills and knowledge are required for First Aid and CPR. The next step for obtaining their certificate will be a brief, in-class teaching experience.
  2. Candidates who fulfill the second requirement must successfully complete a skills evaluation and meet the necessary prerequisites. Once this step is complete, they may skip the Fundamentals of Instruction as they have previous teaching skills. They will start the Discipline-Specific component instead. This component is 14.5 hours. After participants finish the Discipline-Specific component, they’ll move on to the Teaching Experience component. Here, they’ll practice leading peer teaching sessions.

Candidates that are successful will receive a three-year valid certificate. Register now to reserve your spot!

We took the Standard First Aid and CPR as a team at work. I feel so much more confident and prepared to act in case of emergency. The course was delivered with humour and excellent instruction. It was a lot of information, but everything made sense after the experience of trying all the skills.
Response from the owner:Hey Leigh! Your review is greatly appreciated. We’re glad you took action and completed a safety training course! You never know when an emergency will occur whether that’s at home, at work or while you’re out shopping. Thank you for choosing Coast2Coast!

Firstly – the Unit address was confusing from outside the building. Had to go through the door which states "Professional Office" and as you go up the stairs the unit is on the 2nd floor. 2ndly – the entire class & classroom was very engaging. You were free to ask any questions and all answers was provided. There were a few students who come from many different professions that required Certification for different levels of First-Aid. 3rdly – Please charge your phones ahead of time, as all of the test are done online (Wifi is provided). All enquiries & submission will need to be done via your phone. 4thly – The instructor came from a very diverse background with years of experience and a vast knowledge all emergency situations. Enjoyed every minute of his class. Thank you Dimitirh. Your knowledge & training technique was very helpful & effective.
Response from the owner:Thank you, Diamond Face! 🙏 Thanks for the tip about finding our Brampton entrance, and we are glad the engaging class made it worth it.
