Emergency First Aid with CPR-C for Douglas College Students

Emergency First Aid (EFA) for Douglas College Students This course at Douglas College is available to students at both the New Westminster and David Lam campuses. It provides a 3-year nationally recognized certification and is equivalent to WorkSafeBC Basic First Aid, meeting common academic and workplace requirements across British Columbia. The blended format allows students to complete all theory, reading, and learning modules online at their own pace from home. They then attend a shorter in-person session on campus for hands-on skills practice and assessment required for certification.
