Becoming an Emergency Care/AED Instructor is a stimulating, fun and rewarding way to share your expertise on first aid. Emergency Care/AED Instructors can teach most of the first aid program courses and train tomorrow’s rescuers!

This 20-hour training is intended for Lifesaving Instructor award holders as well as anyone who has pedagogical experience. If this doesn’t apply to you, don’t worry! You can follow the Emergency Care/AED Instructor (32 h) training.

Prerequisite: to be at least 18 years old

This award allows you to teach the Aquatic Emergency Care/AED [1] course, which is particularly popular in touristy regions since its clientele mostly consists of people who need a work permit to work in swimming pools that are less than 100 m² (hotels, motels, campings, etc.)

If you hold a current National Lifeguard Instructor award and Emergency Care/AED Instructor award, you can pay the award issuance fees and directly obtain the Aquatic Emergency Care/AED Instructor certification.
