This was by far the best CPR-C/first aid course I've ever taken. The blended learning format was so convenient and effective. My instructor Cass was AMAZING. She delivered a super engaging and helpful in-person learning program. I loved how much hands-on experience we got to have. I will definitely be coming back when I need to recertify!

Took the general First Aid class with Alex (BLS-C I think?) He was very clear on the topics and engaging with the class. I had some questions about being a paramedic and he gave me some great insight and was fun to have a conversation with. The class was well designed, interactive and very informative and flew by because honestly I was having a lot of fun. Thanks Alex for a great class!

Experienced team and affordable price! I will definitely be going to Jeff for all my CPR certifications in the future! I love his teaching style. This is the first CPR course where I didn't almost fall asleep from the CPR instructors boring monotone voice. Jeff truly made CPR training a fun experience with his up to date equipment and technology as well as all of his exciting adventures that he shares, making for a captivating and enjoyable course! Keep up the great work Jeff!

My BLS recertification was easy to book and I enjoyed the session that was taught by an experienced EMT, who taught me new things I haven't learned in school. The communication was amazing and they respond so fast, with great customer service. Will definitely book again with them if I need to get recertified

Our employees and myself took the First Aid/ CPR course with our instructor Rama (who was absolutely awesome). The teaching method involved active participation and hands on training. The atmosphere was made comfortable and peaceful for everyone. No matter what a person was dealing with, the scenarios involved everyone. THANK YOU RAMA and THANK YOU EMT. The best course ever for our employees!

I had first aid and cpr-c training yesterday with Jeff and it was amazing Jeff was a great trainer. Highly recommend

I really almost forgot everything what I have learned before about CPR training. My very skilled and knowledgeable instructors Kien Hoang and Jeff Frennete are very specific and well organized when it comes to doing CPR for Health Care practitioners, first aid, and by using AED for baby, child, and adult. They have their own way in explaining and giving scenarios in which it is very understandable. Now I feel more confident as a nurse helping others if emergencies happen to anyone. I will be coming back for sure next year and will definitely recommend it to my friends. 👏💪

I have taken many first aid/EMT courses in the past but Jeff’s course was by far the best one. He makes teaching fun. He has a room full of people who aren’t use to sitting around so the heavy eyes tend to take action, but not in Jeff’s course. Jeff is outgoing, knowledgeable and experienced. He delivers the program in different ways so everyone can understand, so being a visual, audio or hands on learner there’s something for everyone to ensure they know the content.Come practical day, well those are the best days. As a student you’re nervous but Jeff walks you through it. This equipment is state of the art and a lot better then the styrofoam head dummies I’ve used in past courses.I recommend this company. He will keep your employee awake during training (super important), he makes it fun which is also important so the content sticks in our adult brain and him having in the field experience. He knows what works and what doesn’t.He also has cool stories. Thanks Jeff for making this one of the best trainings I’ve had. I actually still remember the content.

Jeff facilitated Standard First Aid training in our hospitality/manufacturing facility. Our team loved it - he was very engaging and very practical in his approach. Highly recommend!

Sarah F

03:23 06 Dec 23

Jeff's expertise and teaching style made the learning process enjoyable and engaging. His passion for first aid and genuine care for others truly shone through during the course. I highly recommend Jeff as an instructor for anyone looking to learn first aid skills and to get certified! Best ever!

Malcolm Scott

Enrolling in this first aid and CPR course was a decision I'm truly grateful for. The instructor, Jenn, introduced us to the essentials with outstanding clarity and care right from the start. Her hands-on approach and practical sessions were invaluable, giving us the confidence to perform life-saving techniques.Jenn's expertise in both first aid and CPR was evident throughout the course. She provided in-depth knowledge and made complex concepts accessible to everyone, regardless of their prior experience. The balance of learning and practice under her watchful eye meant that each of us left the course not just with knowledge, but with the real ability to help in an emergency.The course was comprehensive, yet Jenn managed to make it approachable, ensuring personal attention to all attendees. I'd highly recommend this training to anyone looking to gain essential life-saving skills in a supportive and effective learning environment.

Jasmine Campbell

Jeff is an amazing CPR instructor, as a Registered Nurse myself, he was a great educator for real-life situations and very informative!

Alex Robinson

10:59 15 Sep 23

Extremely impressive. As a volunteer firefighter and a volunteer rescue tech first aid is not my primary career and the courses seem to come and go throughout the years, regurgitating the same info that was taught to our predecessors. The program put together by Jeff and Anna gives you the confidence, knowledge and real life tips and that help make you confident and retain information for when you need it most: in an emergency. The very hands on approach is unmatched and helps you develop real skills and an excellent feel for what a real medical emergency is like. Would give 10/10 or 100/100 if I could. If you are looking to have the next level first aid training that will prepare you for the real world, look no further, this is it!

The most realistic experience in any of the previous training I’ve done in the past years. The equipment and layout of this course is extremely relatable not only to construction/maintenance workers, but to your household members or any individual that needs a hand in need. Jeff is outstanding in his field and I highly recommend at least one member of your family/household take this course

Kyle Gagne

Jeff is the best teacher/instructor I've ever had the pleasure of learning from. His personality and real life experience makes the course delivery second to none.

Kayley Peacock

22:55 31 Aug 23

Jeff was an amazing instructor who is very knowledgeable and experienced. The course was very fun and the in person class was very engaging. There were lots of hands on activities where we were challenged to work together both individually and as a team. Jeff’s humour made for a very entertaining and fun time while his experience taught the group lots of important information and skills. The main thing that sets him apart from other instructors is his clear passion and dedication to his job which really makes for a great experience.

Jonathan Francis

21:48 23 Jul 23

I recently took a blended online/in-person BLS level CPR course here. The online portion was quick, easy to take notes on and was presented overall very well. In-person, Jeff was a fantastic instructor with a great sense of humor, which made the experience fun and enjoyable for everyone there. He has an abundance of knowledge and experience & has even written multiple books on the subject. We learned on extremely high tech equipment which provides realistic human-like feedback and displays statistics while you are practicing CPR. I will absolutely be returning to refresh my skills come the next school year.Thanks again Jeff!

My CPR-BLS class was fun and informative. Jeff is an amazing teacher and has years worth of experience. I recommend to anyone. I'll definitely be back for any rectification that I need.

Jacob Morris

Jeff is an absolutely amazing teacher. He makes learning first aid fun and engaging, a difficult thing to do! If you’re thinking of taking any first aid courses, EMT should be your first choice.

Jeff is an exceptional teacher. He makes learning fun and relates it to his real life experiences. I have alot of confidence after attending his class. Lots of real life scenarios and I learned a lot.

Jeff was a FANTASTIC teacher!!! Super kind and super genuine. Amazing teaching techniques and enjoyed listening to him telling us stories about his past experiences. I was expecting the class to be boring but Jeff made it so fun! Time passed by quickly and learned a lot. Well done jeff 🙂

Esther Brilhante

01:00 09 Jun 22

Hands down best first aid/ cpr course I’ve ever taken. Thankful they had a blended learning option so I only needed to go in one day. But the day went by so fast. Jeff is an amazing teacher. I will definitely be back when I need certification again! ☺️

Rachel Pugsley

19:27 23 May 22

An absolutely incredible learning experience with an amazing teacher!! Jeff is an engaging and entertaining teacher who uses his acting skills to put on the best realistic scenarios for training. He ensures everyone understands the content and explains the 'why' for everything we do so we understand the logic around first aid skills. I went into the preparamedcine program shy and with minimal skills and came out with confidence, a passion for paramedicine, and some great friends. By far the most valued and highest qaulity of first aid training I have ever recived!

Dhruv Patel

21:02 22 May 22

Thanks for bringing us an excellent program and progress with valuable tools.Your course is a very complete form of enrichment in every aspects. It’s easy to sum up - A teacher with richness of knowledge and fun can be found here.Thanks you Jeff!!! You are amazing !!!

David Paquette

00:16 17 May 22

I took the advanced first responder course as part of mine rescue training. Jeff’s instruction is second to none. He is engaging, funny, and informative.The theory he teaches is reinforced by realistic scenarios, and I left feeling confident and ready to respond to real situations.I highly recommend his training to anyone serious about learning real first aid.

Chase Taylor

22:04 29 Apr 22

Jeff was a fantastic teacher! He was entertaining, personable and above all informational. Jeff didn't just follow some cookie cutter program instead he communicated with everyone made sure we understood the concepts he was teaching, the goals we should have in mind when trying to deal with injured people. What really made the program stand out to me was the scenarios with both jeff and the dummies, letting my co-workers and I try to work things out on our own & then re running the scenario after he gave us some corrections was a super powerful learning tool. I would happily recommend this first aid program to anyone interested, after taking that class for work I feel like these skills aren't just valuable to have in the work place they are skills everyone should have.

Josh Woodall

23:49 07 Apr 22

Hats off to Jeff and EMT Canada for providing such a high level of quality and professionalism in their program. My time learning with Jeff was not only extremely educational but an absolute pleasure. His passion for teaching is refreshing, and evident in his efforts to ensure you understand not just what he's teaching, but also why. The equipment is top-notch and allows for scenarios to feel realistic and intense. I guarantee you will leave this program completely confident in your knowledge and abilities to administer first aid and for that I would highly recommend this company.

Jason Van Vroenhoven

14:04 01 Apr 22

WOW!! I’ve been on many first aid courses throughout my life, and I have to say that the experience our instructor Jeff gave, from EMT Canada, was incredible! His acting classes have paid off through his blend of storytelling, real life experience, comedy, technology, theory, and information made this the best first aid course I have ever taken. He is incredibly passionate and captivating, we will be booking him for years to come with our organization.Thank you Jeff!

There are fast-food first aid training providers, and there are high end boutique oriented training providers. EMT: Emergency Medical Training Canada Inc. is definitely on the high end of the boutique providers. I have taken a number of courses from over 6 training providers over the years, including National Lifesaving, St John's Ambulance, and Red Cross certified providers and the quality of the experience has varied so much, in spite of all these programs achieving the same WSIB certified standard for material to be covered.EMT Canada's training not only meets the same required WSIB standard for industry recognition (and at a cost extremely competitive with even the lowest cost providers), but provides a level of training far superior than any other provider I have used.EMT Canada trainers are experienced and highly qualified professionals (regional active paramedics, army medics/paramedics or similar level of professionals) that use training equipment that is more realistic and better maintained than even many college and university health care programs. No expense is spared to ensure students receive the most realistic, hands-on experience possible in a classroom environment.The training philosophy however is where EMT Canada really shines. Instructor dedication to teaching is so high, that time is always available to answer any and all questions even after a course is over. Ongoing support and continuous learning options are accessible and available making a course with EMT Canada not a stand alone event, but an ongoing partnership. In class instruction simulation and scenarios are also made as realistic and challenging as possible, at a level that needs to be experienced to be appreciated.Do not hesitate in enrolling with training with EMT: Emergency Medical Training Canada.

Where to even begin... :)Being a front line worker within the mining industry in a remote location, the First Responders training is excellent to have.I have taken this course twice over the years and both times I was more then impressed. Jeff is an incredible instructor who shares life experiences, is passionate and very informative. He captures the attention of the entire room and makes learning enjoyable. Jeff is always open to all questions anyone may have, his teaching method is very hands on and scenarios are made to feel real.All members of our team had nothing but positive things to say.The knowledge and skills learned in this course has helped with many emergencies myself and my team have come across. The new found knowledge and confidence this training has taught us has brought our team a long way and helped us provide the best care possible.Many Thanks Jeff. 🙂

had a great experience redoing my Standard first aid / CPR-BLS course with Kitchener First Aid. There were multiple tips/tricks mentioned that I haven't heard from previous instructors in other first aid training courses over the years, and the lifelike patient sim equipment was very very cool. I also appreciated the blended learning option that was organized well.

Kien Hoang

Jeff is a great trainer with decades experience as a paramedic. I got my bls certificate here and will come back for my renewal! Well done Jeff!

My experience at KFACT was phenomenal. This place is run by a wonderful team!The courses here are delivered sensibly. The trainer keeps the content engaging and relatable so you actually retain the knowledge.

Harrison Mair

08:04 01 Dec 23

Jeff, as the lead trainer, brings an approach that is unmatched by other individuals/organizations that offer First Aid training. He is passionate about helping trainees understand the most important concepts for real world application. He has a wealth of experience and is extremely knowledgeable, in contrast to many other trainers/organizations, who are simply ticking off boxes as they cycle people through their courses. Additionally, the location is conveniently located and accessible, and you will be using some of the most high-tech equipment in your training session. Having been certified by other organizations across Canada, Kitchener First Aid & CPR Training is a clear frontrunner. Jeff's sense of humour and love for his family are a bonus!

Robert Howard

15:14 17 Nov 23

Would highly recommend. I have taken a lot of first aid courses and this one has really stood out as the best. They have a real focus on practical, usable knowledge, and I came away with a lot more confidence if I ever need to apply these skills. They also have some really cool technology that you don't see at a lot of first aid training places. Jeff is a fantastic instructor.

KFACT was a fantastic learning experience. The online coursework was really comprehensive, and being able to access the material virtually allowed me to learn at my own pace and better retain the information. The in-person portion of the course was really engaging - Jeff is an experienced instructor and showed us how best to put our First Aid and CPR skills into practice. KFACT also has state-of-the-art CPR dummies that helped us understand proper techniques and responding to different situations in a way that felt realistic and structured. I strongly recommend checking out KFACT for the comprehensive material, small class sizes, and engaging and practical skills for first aid and CPR! Thanks, Jeff!

Iryna Zhyrnova

00:09 13 Oct 23

This was by far the best in-person learning experience I ever had! Jeff is a fantastic teacher and has years of experience as a paramedic. Our group was in a small classroom which made it a safe space to ask many questions. I highly recommend KFACT!

Rob Hayman-Abello

01:25 28 Aug 23

Jeff is a great teacher, he's experienced in the field and clearly knows his stuff, providing extra knowledge that goes beyond the surface level technique and helps you understand why treatments are done a certain way.You will get lots of hands-on learning using KFACT's large supply of first aid training materials and medical training robots. Jeff makes the situations very realistic which results in valuable practice. Would definitely recommend.

Krystal s

22:08 25 Aug 24

Barrie first aid and cpr training was great, there were only two things I didn't care for that much which might not bother some people, the online portion contained way to much information and in depth medical information that is not needed unless your a medical student perhaps. It took way longer to get through than needed.& it is only valid for one year where as a lot of other certifications are valid for 3 years.Edit to add to response from owner ** I took the first aid CPR level C as per my job requires, I took this a year ago, I recently reviewed another first aid course because I had to recertify as the one I got here expired. Not sure what that has to do with my review.Thanks for your response.

Julia Sokolova

18:17 12 Aug 24

Very informative in-person and online learning course. The in-person portion was enjoyable and I will come back again for recertification when needed!

Chelsea

14:46 12 Aug 24

The class was thorough I took the blended course. However I found the videos were very long and repetitive. The voice over was dragged out and was so slow. There’s no fast forward or speed up the speaking and it constantly glitched or stopped. The 2 hours in person was great with destiny she was nice and it was mostly interactive but went over theory again.

I was on a blend-in type of First Aid&CPR-BLS/AED training on June 15 2024. Both theoretical and practical parts were described in details and properly shown. Every participant of the group practiced skills as well. Moreover, we discussed scenarios of critical situations, that can lead to or already required CPR performing.I am grateful for these training.

Cherifa C

04:44 20 Jun 24

I took the blended course. Theory online, then 7 hrs in class doing the skills. This method is very convenient since you only have to set aside one day of going to class. The online portion is long but very informative and made easy to grasp the information. The in class portion was great, touched on all the important skills and the instructor, Destiny, was informative on subjects/skills not included due to her career background. Also the class is supplied with proper “dummies” (adults, children and infants) for good practical practice. Highly recommend this course.

Destiny was a great instructor that went over the course thoroughly and took the time to answer everyone’s questions and explained things very well with numerous examples. She taught the practical aspects of emergency first aid very well and easy to understand. The online blended course was great as you could do it at home at your own pace which also cuts down on the in-class time. Would definitely go back for my recertification!

The blended learning course was the most convenient training I've had in First Aid. The online portion was informative and let us complete it at our own pace which was amazing especially with our work schedules. The in class portion with Destiny was great as well. She did an excellent job covering all we needed to know in a very timely manner. My coworkers and I had a great time and appreciate the time and effort put into this course. Thank you!

Michele Spear

21:01 20 Oct 23

Barrie First Aid and CPR training was amazing! Very thorough and informative, both the online portion as well as the in class portion. They were very accommodating and responded promptly to emails as well. I was feeling a bit nervous but once getting to the in class program, I really felt good about what I had already learnt, and the hands on experience that we received really made me feel like I've left with the knowledge that I'm able to truly give first aid and CPR should I ever be called to use these new skills. Highly recommended!

Valer Sarkissov

This was an amazing course. Our instructor knew exactly what he was doing and had a great way of expressing and showing us, which helped us remember and be able to do these things. He is also such a nice person in general and very helpful! If you need CPR definitely take this course it’s amazing and you’ll learn so much!

Samantha West

Fantastic Course! Loved being able to complete the modules at my own pace. The modules were very informative and easy to follow along with. The in class portion was great.

Easy to learn format and knowledgeable instructor. My instructor, Destiny was very interactive and personable making the day an enjoyable experience. The blended course allowed me to consume the material online at my own pace. I have participated many First aid and CPR courses over the years and this one was by far the best.

Frank Owen

20:33 20 Mar 23

The blended learning course was Great. Being able to complete half of the material online at my own pace and the other half in person was perfect! Destiny was a great instructor for the in-class part. I highly recommend this place to anyone looking to take SFA&CPR.

Monika Rolak

16:36 06 Feb 23

In my experience, the course was very comprehensive and provided a lot of information, which gave me more confidence to help others. Destiny was absolutely wonderful and was open to all of our questions... She shared her experiences with us and assured us that we wouldn't leave the course without fully understanding it. Anyone who is afraid, concerned, and unclear about giving first aid should take this course. My confidence and knowledge have increased since I met Destiny. It was a pleasure to attend Barrie First Aid and CPR Training. The facility and its instructors were magnificent. I highly recommend it for beginners and those renewing their certifications.

Gillian Quarshie

21:19 23 Jan 23

Prior to registering for the course, I was hesitant as I had bad experiences with a the previous course that I took. When I saw that they offered the Blended Course I jumped at the opportunity, leaving me with one day in class. As the class began, I realized that I should've done both classes in-person. Our instructors were (are) AMAZING. They were so personable, related with the class by using their own experience out in the field and made you feel very comfortable. They created an atmosphere that allowed for great conversation and shared their knowledge in such a creative way. I look forward to my recertification, when the time comes.

Maddie Giffen

04:05 15 Jan 23

Amazing experience! I have gone to Barrie First Aid & CPR for 2 years in a row for my Bls certification and they are great. Now with the hybrid learning style it makes it much easier & faster. Highly recommend these guys!

Penny Chiasson

17:40 09 Jan 23

Very happy with every aspect of my first aid/ CPR training at Barrie First Aid. It was affordable, the online portion was informative and well laid out, and the instructor made the in class portion interesting and fun to be there, getting us through the required material in a timely fashion. Thanks again! I would definitely recommend this company.

Kirstyn Barclay

00:43 30 Oct 22

This was by far the best training I have received in my professional experience. Funny informative and innovative! The training was so hands on the instructors even let trainees test skills on them to better show hands on experience. Our morning instructor had us practice recovery position using him as patient and it was great to have someone who knew what they were doing to practice with making it feel more realistic! Out afternoon instructor let us practice using a BVM mask ON HIM so that we could feel how difficult it was to actually use on a person. These are just two examples of why I learned more this weekend than I've ever felt when walking out of a training course. It was phenomenal and I'll never go anywhere else for training going forward!

Kielly Jordan-Fee

19:52 12 Oct 22

The in-person class today was super interesting! Our instructor made the class fun and engaging while also providing insight into their own personal (and funny) experiences on the field. I was worried the class might be boring but it was far from it. If you’re looking for a fun, yet informative place to receive training I highly recommend Barrie First Aid!

3 classes a week and in-class session for only a single day means becoming certified here will be very easy with a busy schedule. Combine that with high-energy, knowledgeable instructors for a solid experience.Having extensive experience in the healthcare field, including having taught CPR myself, I can say that this was the most educational & entertaining recert yet. Thank you for your accommodation!

When I first started searching for CPR courses, I hoped to find a smaller, personable place run by a knowledgeable & skilled leader. I didn't want to learn from a faceless organization with a big name where people like me are just a number. I was so happy to find Rayma and Oakville CPR. Rayma is present throughout the Oakville CPR website and on their Instagram, so when I first reached out with questions, it was nice to know who my emails would be read by. Rayma is very quick to respond to emails. She is helpful, friendly & professional. I registered for "blended learning" which involves online course work and one in-person session. The online portion is very thorough & designed to help you remember important details. I was a little nervous about the in-person portion but I need not have stressed - Rayma made the class very fun, interesting, and relevant. She is excellent at being encouraging, answering questions, and explaining things using the depth & breadth of her experience as a licensed paramedic. I'm very impressed with Oakville CPR & First Aid and would recommend it for anyone looking to become certified or just want to learn CPR/First Aid for personal knowledge. Thank you, Rayma!
