Course Overview

A Red Cross instructor recertification course is designed to update current instructors’ skills and knowledge to re-certify their teaching credentials. These courses are offered in-person and involve a review of any new program updates, reinforcement of teaching skills, and the opportunity to discuss training methods with other instructors in your area! A recertification must be completed for each discipline a candidate is certified in (First Aid & CPR, Professional Responder, etc.). 

Please Note: if you hold a Teaching Experience Supervisor or Youth Leader certificate it will be automatically renewed at this time.

Recertification Qualifications

• A current valid CRC Instructor certification (not expired) in the discipline you are registering for. (If you currently have a valid extension to your certificate you will need to provide that during the registration review).
• Have taught a minimum of three Canadian Red Cross First Aid Program courses during the three-year certification period.
• One course must have been taught in each discipline the Instructor is seeking recertification (course taught must be at the highest level of certification within each discipline; recertification and blended courses also qualify).
