Standard Level First Aid
Standard First Aid (2 Days) Level HCP CPR
Designed to meet industry, business and government requirements, Standard level first aid is a modular course for those who want to learn more first aid skills.
The Standard level first aid course is built on the same core and elective lessons as the Emergency level course. The course includes core and elective lessons as well as a written exam.
Lessons that make up the Standard and Emergency level courses are outlined below.
The elective lessons are chosen by instructors based on your needs. For example, companies may ask for specific lessons in accordance with local or provincial safety regulations. Electives in a course intended for the general public are based on regional or community needs and interests.
