Online CPR Training

If you are a Personal Support Worker (PSW), we recommend that you check with your employer or the appropriate authorities in your jurisdiction for specific training requirements.

In general, attendants will be required to complete a 4-hour CPR/AED course. Our online CPR training will meet all your needs. This is a training course that includes all the essentials on CPR as well as the use of an automatic external defibrillator. You can find this training here:

In some cases, especially in senior residences (RPA), your employer may require you to take a 16-hour training course. In this case, we recommend our "First Aid - Advanced General Public (16 hours)" training. This training includes CPR/AED components, but also components on injury prevention and treatment, anaphylactic-type allergic reactions, etc. This training for, among others, orderlies, is available at the following link

This is a "Level C" training (Adult, Child and Infant) which includes learning how to use an AED (Automatic External Defibrillator).

It is the duty of the Attendant Caregiver (ACG) to keep their skills up to date in order to practice their profession. Keeping their CPR skills up to date is therefore essential to ensure the safety of the patients they work with.

Here is a link from the "Regulation respecting the conditions for obtaining a certificate of compliance and the operating standards of a private residence for seniors" explaining the responsibilities in terms of CPR and First Aid for attendants to beneficiaries:

Our online CPR training is offered 100% online. This means you can take your course independently. You will be able to start your training at your own pace.

Once you purchase the CPR Online course, you will have a maximum of 10 weeks to complete it.

At the end of each reading block, you will be evaluated through various theoretical multiple-choice questionnaires. The passing grade for each quiz is set at 80%.

Mandatory practical sessions will be required of you. Our exclusive automated system will take you through these sessions at your own pace, step by step.

You will be invited to build your own small CPR mannequin using everyday objects in order to assimilate the different first aid techniques.

Our exclusive automated system will guide you through these steps. The practices are done independently. You will be asked to follow the steps of each practice until the end of a timer to confirm that you have completed it.  These sessions will allow you to assimilate the different approaches to a first aid intervention, thus allowing you to acquire the necessary reflexes.

You will also be invited to download our FREE CPR - ASB mobile application to use as an accessory to ensure a proper rhythm of compressions and breaths.
