Learning to give first aid and CPR can save lives. You can use these skills to help family, neighbours, and friends. Courses are open to teens 12 and older, and adults. Registration is open year-round.
You can register online through the Wrenford Live and Play portal, in person at any City recreation facility, or by calling 519-555-0120.

We offer two main certification tracks. Both meet Ontario workplace safety standards.
- Intermediate First Aid, CPR-C & AED – Learn how to assess emergencies, treat injuries, and perform CPR with an automated external defibrillator. Valid for three years. No prerequisites. Ages 12 and up.
- Recertification – Update your expired certification. You must hold a current, non-expired Intermediate First Aid licence. Valid for three years. Ages 12 and up.
What to expect
Each course runs for 14 to 16 hours over two or three evenings, or one full weekend. Classes include classroom theory, hands-on practice, and a final skills check. Instructors are certified through the Canadian Red Cross and approved by the Workplace Safety and Insurance Board.
Please bring comfortable clothing, a water bottle, a snack, and a pen. You will need a notebook for the written portion. All mannequins, AED trainers, and bandaging supplies are provided.
