Blended Standard/Intermediate First Aid & CPR - Alberta
Provided in partnership with Global Training Center
Description
This program consists of 6 hours of online training followed by 6.75 hours of in-class skill training. The program covers the essential modules required for first aid certification while providing a unique first aid training concept that utilizes less theory and workbooks, and more scenarios and practical applications.
With the theory portion of the course previously completed online, the in-class portion of the course is approximately half the time of the traditional course format.
The in-class portion of the course is delivered by an Instructor and focuses on practical skills. The practical modules are unique in that participants respond to several mock-ups using live ‘casualties’. No other first aid course has been presented with such enthusiasm and motivation among participants!
The learner is required to complete the practical portion of the training within 90 days of successfully completing the online portion. It is recommended that the learner reviews the material if they attend the in-class training after 14 days of completing the online training.
This course meets the requirements of CSA Z1210-17 and Alberta OHS.
