First Aid & CPR/AED Recertification
Methods and Courses

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.

Dayne Thompson

I took the First Aid & CPR course at Coast2Coast First Aid/CPR – Newmarket, and it was an excellent experience from start to finish. My instructor, Martina, was absolutely fantastic, incredibly knowledgeable, clear, and engaging throughout the entire session.

She explained every topic in a way that was easy to understand, demonstrated proper techniques with confidence, and made sure everyone in the class felt comfortable practicing the skills hands-on. The course was well-structured, informative, and very practical. I left feeling fully prepared and confident in my ability to respond in real-life situations.

Highly recommend Coast2Coast Newmarket, and especially Martina, for anyone needing CPR or First Aid training. Great experience! 👏

Hema Patel

I am very disappointed with my experience this time. I paid a significant amount for this CPR and First Aid course, and after completing my assessment, I still have not received my certificate by email. This is unacceptable. When I called for support, I was told to wait 5–6 business days, which is far too long—especially since I need this certificate for my nursing requirements and my submission deadline has already passed. For the cost of this course, timely delivery of the certificate should be guaranteed.

Response from the owner:Hi Hema! We're sorry to hear that you were disappointed with your experience this time around. Please know that certificates take 5-10 business days to process, as stated on our website and in your confirmation email. If you need your certificate right away, we offer an Express Certificate option that allows students to receive it within 24 hours of course completion. Since you completed your course on November 21st, you could receive it as early as this Friday. If you have any questions or would like to opt in for an Express Certificate, please do not hesitate to contact us.

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.

Our First Aid & CPR Training Facilities in Canada

Coast2Coast First Aid & Aquatics provides WSIB-approved and OHS-approved First Aid, CPR, EMR, Youth training courses and more in over 23 locations in Canada! We pride ourselves on providing the best training experience possible, ensuring our students leave their course feeling confident in their life-saving skills.
