CSA Intermediate/Standard Workplace First Aid Theory

This approved blended eLearning Standard First Aid with CPR & AED course has been designed so that you can complete it at your own pace, in your own time. Not only will you learn more effectively, but you will also have more fun learning.

This course has two components:

• An online first aid theory component
• A classroom-based first aid practical skills component

By completing this online Standard First Aid Theory, you will satisfy the online first aid theory component of the Standard First Aid with CPR & AED course, and it will prepare you for the practical training session.

Each module is thoroughly explained with minimal technical terminology and includes a helpful review section.

The theory component may take up to eight hours to complete depending on your knowledge base, but note that you do not have to finish all of the theory in one seating (one module a day is the recommended pace for maximizing learning).

You can log in and out of the course as you please. If you are interrupted, just log out and log back in when you have more time, and your place in the course will be maintained.

Once you have completed your theory course, you will be ready for your practical training. The practical training must be taken within two (2) weeks from the last-possible date of completion of the online theory.

Register for practical training events offered in your location from your classroom calendar or contact your system administrator for options. Spaces and locations are limited.

At the practical training session, an accredited instructor will be able to answer any questions that you have from the theory course and will then demonstrate a number of first aid techniques, including emergency scene management and treatment for shock, unconsciousness, fainting, adult choking, severe bleeding, and much more.

Participants attending the Day-2 Practical Training will be given a Day-2 recap quiz to review everything that was covered online, and only those with a passing mark will be able to participate in the practical training session. The minimum passing mark on the Day-2 recap quiz is 50 percent.
