First Aid Training - Summerside - Basic and Intermediate Options

We have two options to choose from, be sure to connect with your centre leadership to ensure you are choosing the right fit for your team!

A legislative change to the Occupational Health and Safety Act requires at least one employee in a Child Care Centre to be on-site at all times with Standard First Aid. The Early Learning and Child Care Act states that certification requirements for Early Childhood Educators (ECEs) mandate at least Emergency First Aid.

Because every facility operates differently, the choice is up to each centre on what coverage looks like for their specific team and how to staff accordingly for full compliance. To help you build the right schedule for your facility, we are offering a flexible training with options tailored to your needs:

  • Basic (Emergency) - 3 hours online - 3.5 hours in person (9:00am-12:30pm)
  • Intermediate (Standard) - 4 hours online - 7 hours in person (9:00am-4:00pm)
 
Please note that both Basic (Emergency) and Intermediate (Standard) First Aid courses includes a required online module that must be completed prior to attending the in-person session.  By registering for this session, you are agreeing to complete this online material. We highly recommend starting the online portion as soon as you receive access to the material from Life Start Charlottetown.

Registration Deadline: Registration and payment will close on ONE WEEK OUT at 11:59 PM to ensure all participants have adequate time to complete the online coursework.

Important Attendance Policy: The online material must be fully completed by 9:00 AM on the day of the in-person session

If your online portion is incomplete at this time, you will not be permitted to attend the session and will be asked to leave. No refunds will be issued for those dismissed due to incomplete online material.

 

All payments must be made in full no later than September 18th, 2026. Please be advised-- there is a minimum number of 10 people to have the training.

Please include the full name for whom the payment is for and the type of first aid training you've registered for Basic or Intermediate :)

No PD hours are associated with this training.
