First, log into the Canadian Red Cross online portal and work through the self-paced theory modules from home. Because no classroom attendance is needed for this portion, you can finish in as little as 2–3 hours.

The Red Cross CPR/AED course covers four core skill areas. Because it uses a blended format, you study the theory online first and then practise every skill hands-on with a certified instructor.
The Canadian Red Cross offers multiple CPR certification levels. For most Ontario workplaces and schools, CPR Level C is the required standard. Healthcare professionals, however, typically require BLS-HCP.
This is the standard certification for the general public, workplace first aiders, childcare workers, teachers, and students. In addition, it covers adult, child, and infant CPR plus AED.
Valid for 3 years, it is issued by the Canadian Red Cross. As a result, it is accepted by WSIB and most Ontario employers.
This is the clinical-grade standard for regulated health professionals. Moreover, it adds 2-rescuer CPR, bag-valve-mask ventilation, and team resuscitation skills not found in CPR Level C.
Valid for 1 year, it is issued by the Canadian Red Cross. Consequently, it is accepted by Ontario hospitals and health agencies.
Our pricing is transparent and all-inclusive. Because there are no hidden fees, the Red Cross registration is already built into the price you see.
WSIB, O.Reg 1101, most Ontario employers, schools, and daycares.
Note, however, that expired certificates require the full course rather than recertification.

Yes. Because all our CPR/AED courses are Canadian Red Cross certified and WSIB-approved under Ontario O.Reg 1101, the certificate is recognised by most Ontario employers, schools, childcare agencies, and healthcare institutions. However, if your employer has specific requirements, contact us before registering and we'll confirm compatibility.
CPR Level C is the standard for the general public and workplace first aiders. In contrast, BLS-HCP is the clinical-grade standard for healthcare providers; for example, it adds 2-rescuer CPR, bag-valve-mask ventilation, and team resuscitation — skills not found in the standard Level C course. Therefore, if you're a nurse, doctor, paramedic, or medical student, BLS-HCP is the appropriate course.
