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!

Took the course in Edmonton with course instructor Shane Bruneau who was exceptionally friendly and highly professional at the same time and made the students feel welcome and throughout the course he was fun to be with and learn from. I strongly recommend his services to any prospective student and I wish Shane all the best and sincerely hope he would be my instructor again in 3 years time.

I can’t say enough good things about Coast2Coast First Aid/CPR – Hamilton. This is now my third time using Coast2Coast for my First Aid and CPR certification, which I need for my job in security at Mohawk College, and every experience has been excellent. When it came time to renew my certification, Coast2Coast was my first choice. I had already had such positive experiences with them in the past that I didn’t really feel the need to look anywhere else. My instructor, Joyal Fernandez, was absolutely fantastic. He was knowledgeable, professional, patient, and made the course genuinely enjoyable. He explained everything clearly, gave us plenty of opportunities to practise the hands-on skills, and made sure we understood not just what to do in an emergency, but why we were doing it. That makes a huge difference when you’re learning skills you may actually have to rely on in the real world. Working in security, First Aid and CPR aren’t just certificates I need for employment — these are skills I could potentially have to use to help someone during an emergency. I left the course feeling refreshed, confident, and much better prepared because of Joyal’s instruction. Another thing I really appreciate is that Coast2Coast is a Canadian Red Cross Training Partner. Knowing that the training follows recognized Canadian Red Cross standards gives me even more confidence in the quality of the certification and the skills being taught. The entire Coast2Coast process has always been organized, professional, and straightforward, which is exactly why I keep coming back when it’s time to renew. A huge thank you to Joyal Fernandez and the Coast2Coast Hamilton team. I would absolutely recommend them to anyone needing First Aid and CPR training — especially anyone working in security or another field where these skills truly matter. 5 stars without hesitation. Coast2Coast was my first choice for renewal, and after another great experience, they’ll continue to be my first choice in the future.

I had Ms. Hetal Patel when I did my lessons for first aid, standard/intermediate CPR AED Level C. She was in depth with her explanations and analogies and provided adequate practice time for participants to learn how to apply a sling safely, provide CPR to adults/children, applying pressure to wounds, and much more. The test is easy and at the time of this review, require you to get 75% to pass out of 35 multiple choice questions.
Response from the owner:Thank you, Michael! 🙏 We agree that Ms. Hetal Patel is wonderful at using clear analogies and providing plenty of hands-on practice. We are so glad you had a great experience earning your Standard First Aid certification in Scarborough. Don't forget to tell your friends about us! – The Coast2Coast Team
