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!

As a corporate facilitator, I am excited to share the trainer for the First Aid & CPR intermediate session was outstanding. John Devlin made the session engaging with his stories and examples. He asked open ended questions and was patient in answering all questions. He managed the wayward learners and was respectful. The only suggestion would be to set expectations before starting the class. I will demonstrate the approach. Allow me to finish before you mirror the process. I will walk you through the steps. All in all – a fantastic class. Looking forward to my recertification if it’s with John Devlin! Thanks John!

Honestly, this was one of the best training sessions I’ve ever attended! Training can sometimes feel long and boring, but Dimitrih Lafleur made this one genuinely fun and enjoyable. He kept things light with his humour, shared real-life examples, and made the whole experience feel more like a group learning together than just sitting through a course. What really stood out was how comfortable he made everyone feel. There was no pressure or embarrassment about asking questions or not knowing something. He made sure everyone understood the material and felt confident in what they were learning. Dimitrih has a great way of teaching that keeps you engaged from start to finish. You actually enjoy being there, and that makes a huge difference. I wish more training sessions were like this one! I would absolutely recommend Dimitrih to anyone looking for a great learning experience.
Response from the owner:Thank you, Kulwant! 🎉 We agree, Dimitrih Lafleur is fantastic at keeping Standard First Aid engaging with his humor and real-life examples.
