FAQs
Can I get my First Aid and CPR certification online?
Yes and no. Any class that is completely online is generally not accepted by employers as OSHA and state requirements mandate hands on training.
However, if you take an online blended class where part of the course is done online, and then you perform your skills in front of an instructor, that is a legitimate way of getting your CPR and First Aid certification online.
Do you offer a First Aid class online?
Yes. The AHA online blended learning class is nationally recognized and widely accepted. In addition to the First Aid class online, students need to complete a hands-on skills session.
After completing the CPR training online and the skills session, students will receive a First Aid certification.
Can I get a First Aid only certification?
Yes. First Aid classes can be taken as a separate module from CPR.
What is First Aid training?
First Aid is the care given to someone who has suffered sudden illness or injury. The goal is to preserve life either by fixing the injury or getting the person to a higher level of care.
Is First Aid certification different from CPR?
Technically, CPR is part of First Aid care. However, in terms of courses, they are generally considered two separate things because of how much information and practice is involved in CPR alone.
What does it mean to be First Aid certified?
Being First Aid certified means that a person has been trained in the past two years to provide basic care to the most common and/or life-threatening sudden illnesses or injuries.
How do I get a First Aid certification card?
After successfully completing a First Aid class, a student should be issued their certification card immediately after the class but no more than 30 days after the class. The card may be a traditional paper card or be an eCard sent via email. We send our cards within 24 hours of the class.
How can I get a CPR and First Aid card replacement?
We wrote an article about getting a replacement card. Those who initially received an eCard via email can login to the AHA and retrieve it. If you initially received a traditional paper card, you will either need to contact the instructor who taught your class or the training center the instructor was aligned with at the time they taught your class. You may be charged a fee for replacement paper cards.
Where can I find CPR and First Aid certification classes near me?
Prime Medical Training offers local CPR classes at their offices and they travel to student’s locations. Search Prime’s class registration page to find upcoming classes in your location.
Is there a First Aid certification test?
No. Students are no longer required to take a test in order to obtain a First Aid certification card. This is a change that happened when the 2010 CPR guidelines were released.
Is First Aid and CPR certification the same thing?
First aid classes typically cover a wide range of ways you can assist a person who has been hurt. Meanwhile, CPR classes focus on helping a person who is undergoing cardiac arrest.
How long do CPR and First Aid certification last?
A CPR and first aid certification typically last for two years.
Is online CPR certification valid?
Although OSHA does not state who can provide CPR training, they emphasize that getting it online is insufficient.
