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!

There is a reason I got this score at BLS Training today and it was because it has been the most informative, interactive, real life situational and memorable training I’ve ever experienced in my 9 years of needing BLS training. Walaa was an amazing instructor who not only knew her stuff but was very passionate about what she was teaching which made it more engaging to learn. I left feeling more prepared than ever before. Thanks Walaa! I hope I don’t have to use any of the training but should I need to I feel more confident in what to do all thanks to you!

Did my first BLS certification here with the instructor, Hetal Patel. She was fantastic and covered everything we needed to know without reading the textbook prior. Loved how she engaged the class and kept us focused throughout this 4-hour class. Well-blended theoretical knowledge and practice. Passed the exam with one stroke. The atmosphere of the class was also great, collaborative and professional. Loved it, thank you!

had a great experience as a student in JOYAL’s first aid course. He is a very knowledgeable and supportive instructor who explains everything clearly and patiently. He made the class engaging and easy to follow, even for beginners.

JOYAL encouraged questions and ensured that every student understood the techniques properly through hands-on practice. His friendly and professional approach created a comfortable learning environment.

I feel much more confident in my first aid skills thanks to his teaching. Highly recommend JOYAL as an instructor—definitely a 5-star experience!

I had a very positive experience with my instructor. He is knowledgeable, patient, and genuinely committed to helping students succeed. One thing I really appreciated was his ability to explain complex topics in a clear and simple way, making it easier to understand and apply what we learned.

He created a supportive and respectful learning environment where questions were encouraged, and everyone felt comfortable participating. His teaching style is engaging, and he often used real-life examples that made the lessons more practical and meaningful.

I also admired his professionalism and organization. He is always prepared, provided clear instructions, and gave helpful feedback that helped me improve. Overall, this instructor (JOYAL) made the learning experience enjoyable and motivating, and I feel more confident in my skills because of his guidance.

The course was really informative and straight forward. The format of the online portion made progression easy, and our instructor, Joyal, was very friendly and made the information easier to digest! He gave great tips, and took the time to make sure everyone understood the key concepts from both the practical and online segments.

My instructor, Ashraf, was fantastic! He was friendly and fun, while also being very thorough in his explanations, but didn’t go into unnecessary detail – a hard balance to strike! I took Standard First Aid with CPR/AED. There was an online self-directed portion, and then an in-person portion with Ashraf. The in-person portion was very hands-on, with the majority of the day spent in skills practice and simulation. I would definitely recommend this trainer and facility to anyone looking for First Aid training!
