EMALB Licensing for First Responders in BC

EMA Licensing Board practical exams for Canadian Red Cross First Responder certificate holders.

In British Columbia, you must hold a valid licence to practice as a first responder. If you've already taken your Canadian Red Cross First Responder course with us in the past 12 months, you can sign up here for your First Responder practical evaluations.

Once you've successfully completed your practical exams, our office will submit your program certificate and course results, including the practical exam answer sheets to EMALB. 

You'll then need to:

  • Successfully complete the EMA Licensing Board online EMA FR written exam and online jurisprudence exam (instructions for applying below).
  • Complete and electronically submit an application for licence form.
  • Undergo a criminal record check within 12 months of the licence application

Gary used relevant examples & situations to teach us proper CPR. He is a great instructor! I like how we learned both adult and baby CPR and it was very hands on.
