First aid and CPR training in Oshawa

Oshawa is Durham Region’s largest city and its education and healthcare hub — home to Ontario Tech University, Durham College and a major hospital network, alongside manufacturing and a growing service economy. That means one thing for training: students. Thousands of nursing, PSW, ECE, paramedic-pathway and trades students need program-compliant first aid and CPR certification every semester — plus the employers who hire them.
