Frequently Asked Questions

Emergency First Aid Mississauga - FAQ

Everything you need to know before you register. Don't see your question? Contact us or check our full FAQ page.

What is Emergency First Aid and what does it cover? +

Emergency First Aid is an entry-level Canadian Red Cross course that teaches you to recognize and respond to the most common life-threatening emergencies. It covers CPR and AED use, choking response, bleeding control, wound care, shock management, burns, fractures, and sudden medical emergencies such as stroke, heart attack, and severe allergic reactions.

Is Emergency First Aid WSIB approved and Red Cross certified? +

Yes. AFAGT is an authorized Canadian Red Cross training provider. Our Emergency First Aid course satisfies WSIB and O.Reg 1101 First Aid Regulation workplace compliance requirements in Ontario. Certificates are accepted by employers, daycares, schools, and healthcare facilities across Ontario and Canada.

What is the difference between CPR-A and CPR-C in this course? +

CPR Level A covers adult resuscitation only, while CPR Level C β€” our most popular option β€” covers adults, children, and infants and includes AED training. The CPR-C version adds approximately 30 minutes of additional teaching time. Most Ontario workplaces, schools, and daycares require CPR-C. If you're unsure which to choose, CPR-C is the right choice.

How long does the blended Emergency First Aid course take? +

The blended format requires 4 hours of self-paced online theory completed at home before your in-person skills day. The skills day is 5 hours for CPR-C or 4 hours for CPR-A. The full-day classroom option is 7 hours (CPR-C) or 6.5 hours (CPR-A), all delivered in one day. You can access your online modules immediately after registering.

Is there a written test? What is the passing mark? +

Yes. The Emergency First Aid course includes a closed-book, independently completed written knowledge evaluation. You must achieve a minimum score of 75% to receive your certificate. Learners with a documented disability that affects written evaluation may be offered a one-on-one verbal assessment by the instructor.

How long is the Emergency First Aid certification valid? +

Your Canadian Red Cross Emergency First Aid certificate is valid for three years. After expiry, you can take a recertification course to renew your credentials quickly. To recertify, you must hold a valid, non-expired Red Cross certificate.

Where is your Mississauga training location? +

We train at 39 Dundas St E, Unit 206, Mississauga, ON L5A 1V9. The facility is centrally located with easy access from the QEW, Hwy 403, and Mississauga Transit. Port Credit GO Station is nearby, and street parking is available.

Can my whole team or company train together? +

Absolutely. We offer group and on-site training for businesses, daycares, schools, construction companies, and community organizations across Mississauga, Brampton, Oakville, Etobicoke, and the broader GTA. Contact us for a custom group quote β€” we bring all the equipment to your location.
