Victoria-tillicum Standard First Aid and CPR Level C (Blended)

While the answer to this can be a bit complicated, the short answer is no. CPR Certification is sometimes the only requirement for specific employers - usually in professions such as healthcare, or for professional responders - since first aid skills are already ‘built into the job’ in some other way. Because of this we do offer stand-alone CPR C courses on a regular basis. That being said, while you CAN take a CPR course without taking first aid, you can NOT take a first-aid course that has no CPR component. CPR is an integral part of any First Aid course, and CPR topics will be touched on throughout the in-class portion of your first aid class. Any first aid course that you take with Alert First Aid will include CPR certification along with it. In summary: If you need First Aid and CPR certification, you only have to sign up for a first aid course - your CPR certification will be included. If you ONLY need CPR certification without any requirement for first-aid then you can sign up for a standalone CPR course.

While there can be benefits to learning about CPR online, if you require CPR certification for your job then at least a portion of your CPR class will need to be done in a live classroom setting. We do offer ‘blended’ CPR courses which are partially done online to reduce your classroom time, but we cannot issue legitimate certificates without including a classroom portion where the skill can be practiced and evaluated by a certified instructor.

If you need first aid certification for work, you can only do PART of the course online. We offer Emergency First Aid, Standard First Aid, Marine Basic First Aid, and standalone CPR C courses in a ‘blended’ format where you are able to complete the ‘knowledge lessons’ online. This cuts the amount of time in the classroom for these courses fully in half, but it isn’t permitted to issue first aid certification unless half of your course time is spent in the classroom where an instructor can guide you through the practical skills and evaluate that you can perform them well enough to be certified.
