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!

I took the Standard First Aid + CPR + AED training with Hosam on June 18, 2025, and I had a really great experience!

As someone whose first language is not English, I sometimes found it difficult to fully understand some of the technical terms and hands-on instructions. However, Hosam was incredibly patient, kind, and supportive throughout the entire course. He took extra time to explain things clearly and made sure I understood each step. His friendly attitude really made me feel more confident and comfortable.

I truly appreciate his dedication to teaching and highly recommend him as an instructor — especially for anyone who may feel nervous or unsure. Thank you again!
Response from the owner:We strive to offer the best training experience possible, and that is why your review is very important to us!

Abdul-Hannan A
Great content. They have a washroom and fridge. Most of the in person content was a repeat of the online content and hence did feel a bit redundant at times. Delivery was a bit unclear at times, but overall well-worded and enjoyable with ample jokes and light-hearted fun. Try to book on a day when parking is free.

Luana Shimabukuro
I found the course to be well-structured and informative, providing a solid understanding of the key topics covered. The learning environment was adequate although slightly warm at times and the hands-on approach was a highlight, encouraging active participation and meaningful interaction with both peers and the instructor. This practical focus made the experience engaging and relevant.
One challenge I encountered was accessing the building; I was accidentally locked out on two occasions, which caused some inconvenience. Improving entry instructions or access support could enhance the overall experience.
Despite that, I truly appreciated the quality of instruction and the collaborative atmosphere. I would recommend the course to others seeking a dynamic and immersive learning experience.
Response from the owner:Hi Luana! We strive to offer the best training experience possible, and that is why your review is very important to us! We’re so glad we were able to train you, someone who could potentially save a life in the future. We appreciate you sharing your feedback with us regarding entry to the building and it is something that we're actively working on to improve with building management. There are instructions on how to enter the building in the confirmation email, though, but we understand that the keypad is a bit tricky. Thanks for choosing Coast2Coast to learn life-saving skills. We hope to see you soon for recertification at our Hamilton first aid and CPR training facility. Stay safe!

Thank You, Coast2Coast!

I would like to sincerely thank Coast2Coast for the amazing First Aid and CPR course I completed on July 5, 2025. The course was well-organized and very informative.

A special thanks to Mr. Joseph, our instructor, who was very talented, clear, and easy to understand. He made both the theory and practical parts of the training very engaging.

The training hall was clean, spacious, and comfortable—not hot at all despite the size—which helped us focus and enjoy the session fully.

I truly learned a lot and feel more confident now in emergency situations. I’m excited to share this experience with my family and friends and encourage them to take this important course.

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.

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.
