Why Online Training Works
Online safety training gives employees the flexibility to complete modules at their own pace, and a well-designed online course can support stronger knowledge retention than a traditional lecture. It’s one more reason Coast2Coast is the CPR training Canada turns to for workplace compliance.
Our CPR/AED and first aid curriculum is designed in accordance with Canadian Red Cross and ILCOR (International Liaison Committee on Resuscitation) 2020 guidelines.

Train many employees at once, often at a lower cost than in-person sessions once you factor in instructor fees and travel.Hands-On CPR Training, Delivered Online
Our online CPR/AED courses cover the same theory as an in-person class, but hands-on practice is still required to master real CPR skills. That’s why many of our CPR/AED training options use a blended approach: complete the theory online, then join a shorter in-person session where you practice on feedback manikins and AED trainers under an instructor’s direct supervision. These in-person sessions meet the CSA Z1210:24 training standard that WSIB relies on under Ontario Regulation 1101, and our CPR/AED training follows current resuscitation guidelines set by international committees, so the skills you learn stay relevant.
How Online CPR Certification Works
Not all CPR courses are the same: CPR/AED Level A covers adults only, CPR/AED Level C adds children and infants and is the version most Ontario workplaces require, and Basic Life Support (BLS) is a healthcare-provider course that’s fully in-class with no online component. Confirm which level your employer requires before you register — it’s the most common reason a certificate gets rejected. A CPR/AED certification from Coast2Coast, once issued, is valid for three years across Canada (BLS is renewed annually). Because Canadian Red Cross and provincial workplace safety boards like WSIB require a hands-on skills assessment, your certificate is issued only after you complete the in-person portion of a blended course — the online module covers the theory, not the certificate itself.
Built for Employees, Parents, and First Responders
Whether you’re a shift worker, a new parent, or a first responder keeping your skills current, our online first aid course and CPR/AED class options are designed to fit real, busy lives. People across Canada choose Coast2Coast to build real, life-saving skills for everyday life — the kind you hope you never need, but are glad to have in a life-threatening emergency.
Fast action saves lives. According to the Heart and Stroke Foundation, survival rates can double when someone acts fast, performs CPR, and uses an AED — and most people who experience cardiac arrest outside a hospital don’t get help in time. That’s exactly the gap hands-on CPR training is designed to close.
Quick Answers About Online CPR Certification
Is online first aid CPR training the same as in-person?
No. Online CPR/AED courses cover the same theory as an in-person class, but you must still complete a short in-person skills assessment before your certificate is issued.
How long does an online CPR course take?
The online portion of a blended CPR/AED Level C course takes about 2 to 3 hours. You then attend a short in-person skills session to complete your hands-on assessment and receive your certificate.
Is this training recognized across Canada?
Yes. Our CPR/AED training and certification are Canadian Red Cross-recognized and accepted for workplace compliance in most provinces.
