Blended Learning 

Blended learning is a combination of in-class instruction with online instruction. Typically, theory and information are conveyed to the participants through an online component. This allows for the in-class component to concentrate on skill development and the application of theory while under the direction of a First Aid Instructor. This program is Red Cross & WSIB approved. In blended delivery, standards remain the same with the following variations:

Participants will receive the Blended Learning package including the class code upon registration. The course is taught by a Blended Learning Instructor. Participants must complete the classroom component within four weeks of completing the online component. If a participant does not attend a classroom session within this timeframe, they are required to retake the online component before being admitted into the classroom.

Why Blended First Aid/CPR Learning?

When a participant takes a blended First Aid/CPR learning course, the program consists of two segments: an online self-paced knowledge component followed by a scheduled in-person skills application component with a certified Instructor.

• You will be spending almost half the time of normal training in a classroom.|
• You can Study/Review the online segment of the course at your preferred date/time.
• You can Study/Review the online segment of the course a little at a time or all together you can Study/Review the online segment of the course in the comfort of your home.  This saves you time and money, as we only have to be on-site for one day to do the practical portion of the training.
