First Aid & CPR/AED Recertification
Methods and Courses

Two people practice CPR on a mannequin outdoors. One person performs chest compressions while the other watches closely. Both wear red shirts, and the scene is set on a red carpet in an open space.

First Aid & CPR Recertification

Recertification courses are designed to refresh your memory and life-saving skills. The All-In-Class format is a great way to re-learn the skills you were once taught by a Canadian Red Cross instructor. This format allows students to complete their full training course in a classroom setting.

Attend your training anywhere from four to eight hours depending on the course level you have registered for. After completing and passing an exam, students will receive a temporary certificate which is valid for 30 days. Within 5-10 business days, students will receive a PDF copy of their certificate via email.
With the All-In-Class format, students are able to complete their training in one go with an experienced Canadian Red Cross instructor. Refresh your memory with theory and hands-on practice. This format is available for public training.

Recertification
Eligibility

In order to be eligible for a Recertification course at Coast2Coast, you must have a valid (not expired) certificate from the Canadian Red Cross. If you are registering for a CPR Recertification course, your current certificate is not required to be from the Canadian Red Cross, but must be from a WSIB-approved or OHS-approved provider. Conditions vary based on the province you are completing your training in as well as the course level you wish to register for.

Currently, we provide First Aid & CPR training in Ontario and Alberta.

First Aid & CPR Recertification

In Ontario and Alberta, you may recertify CPR/AED Level C more than once. If you currently hold a CPR/AED Level C certificate from a Recertification course, you are welcome to take another Recertification course as many times as you want, provided that your current certificate is not expired.

Emergency First Aid & CPR/AED Level C cannot be recertified in Ontario. You must complete the full training course instead. However, Emergency First Aid & CPR/AED Level C can be recertified in Alberta.

Standard First Aid & CPR/AED Level C can be recertified in both Ontario and Alberta, but in Ontario, it can only be recertified once. This means you will need to alternate between a full course and a Recertification course.

Professional Responder Recertification

You may complete a Recertification course each time you need to renew your First Responder or Emergency Medical Responder certification as long as your current certificate is not expired.

Basic Life Support

You may also like:

Basic Life Support (BLS-HCP) training has been designed for healthcare professionals. This course covers high-intensity CPR as a team in settings such as a hospital.

By registering for both First Aid and Basic Life Support, students are eligible for a bundle discount deal!

Susan Nguyen
I really enjoyed my experience receiving training for First Aid / CPR . Our trainer, John Devlin was very informative, clear in his execution, sharing his vast knowledge and personal experience to enhance the training material.
He shared many stories he’s encountered over the years which made the training more engaging, interesting and fun! I couldn’t have asked for a better training or trainer. Not sure how much John gets compensated, however I believe with the 110% effort he brings to the classroom, he deserves a raise! 🙂 all in all, I’d suggest you schedule your next certification for first aid with them. Thank you John for making my day so much fun and informative!
Response from the owner:Hi Susan! We strive to offer the best training experience possible, and that is why your review is very important to us!

Aayush Bandhu
I highly recommend this First Aid training course. My trainer was Saika Rafiique, and she was absolutely fantastic.
Saika was incredibly professional yet very humble and approachable throughout the two days. She trained us thoroughly, ensuring everyone understood not just the "how," but also the "why" behind the procedures. Her patience was remarkable; she took the time to answer every question clearly and made the intensive learning experience engaging and comfortable for everyone in the room.
If you have the opportunity to take a course led by Saika, do not hesitate—you will be trained well.

Ricardo Leon
Exceptional Training with an Outstanding Instructor!

I recently completed my CPR and First Aid certification with Coast to Coast, and I cannot recommend this training highly enough. The entire experience, from registration to certification, was professional and extremely well-organized.

A huge part of this success was our instructor, Tatiana Briceno. Tatiana is truly an exceptional educator. She brought a high level of expertise, passion, and clarity to the material, making complex procedures easy to understand and remember. Her teaching style was engaging—she seamlessly blended theory with hands-on practice, giving everyone the confidence to perform the skills under pressure.

Tatiana created a very supportive and interactive learning environment. She was patient, answered every question thoroughly, and made sure everyone felt comfortable with the practical scenarios. This wasn't just a mandatory course; it was a genuinely valuable learning experience.

If you are looking for high-quality, practical, and confidence-boosting First Aid and CPR training, choose Coast to Coast, and specifically ask for Tatiana Briceno! Five stars!
Response from the owner:Hi Ricardo! We strive to offer the best experience possible, and that is why your review is very important to us! It's great to know that you found the entire process well-organized, and that you left your training feeling confident in these valuable life-saving skills.

We hope to see you at our London first aid and CPR training facility soon for recertification. Stay safe!

What Courses can
be Recertified?

We offer Recertification courses for many different training levels including CPR/AED Level C, Emergency First Aid & CPR/AED Level C, Standard First Aid & CPR/AED Level C, First Responder and Emergency Medical Responder.

If you would like to recertify any other certificates (CPR/AED Level A or Emergency First Aid & CPR/AED Level C, for example), then you may need to register for a full training course. Some courses are not available for Recertification depending on the province.

  • CPR/AED Level A: No Recertification course is available for CPR/AED Level A. You must complete the full training.
  • CPR/AED Level C: Recertification is available for CPR/AED Level C and can be recertified multiple times in a row.
  • Emergency First Aid & CPR/AED Level C: Recertification is only available to our Alberta residents and can be recertified multiple times in a row. Ontario does not allow Emergency First Aid & CPR/AED Level C Recertification.
  • Standard First Aid & CPR/AED Level C: Recertification is available for Standard First Aid & CPR/AED Level C. In Alberta, the course may be recertified multiple times in a row, but in Ontario, you must alternate between a full course and a Recertification course.
  • First Responder: Recertification is available for First Responder and can be recertified multiple times in a row.
  • Emergency Medical Responder: Recertification is available for Emergency Medical Responder and can be recertified multiple times in a row.

If your current First Aid and CPR/AED certificate from the Canadian Red Cross is about to expire, then you should enroll in a WSIB approved or OHS-approved Recertification course. With recertification training, students will primarily focus on practicing hands-on skills such as CPR, bandaging and more.

Refresh your memory by practicing the skills you were once taught and learn new life-saving techniques from a certified Canadian Red Cross instructor! Recertification training will occur over a shorter duration of time compared to the full training course you originally completed.
