Intermediate First Aid is Ontario’s comprehensive workplace first aid certification — the course formerly commonly called Standard First Aid. This 16-hour blended program combines self-paced online theory with a full day of in-person, hands-on skills training.
Intermediate First Aid + CPR/AED covers everything in the Basic program, then goes further: detailed patient assessment, injury management, musculoskeletal injuries, head, neck and spinal considerations, burns, shock, environmental and medical emergencies, advanced bandaging, and team-based workplace response scenarios.
It is the certification level most employers, colleges and placement programs ask for — but always confirm your specific requirement before booking.
Participants receive a First Aid Responder Certificate of Completion. This is our own youth program — it is not a workplace first aid certification and is not affiliated with any other national training agency’s babysitting program.
