Basic Adult CPR (CPR Level A) certification obtained during a live course is required to become certified. First aid is recommended although not required. CPR is valid up to one (1) year from the date it was originally issued. CPR recertification must be completed annually to renew your certification(s).

Due to the high-risk nature of our industry, it is extremely important to refresh your CPR & AED skills annually so you can respond confidently in an emergency. canfitpro strives to exceed industry standards on a national and international level. Requiring CPR and other skills be updated annually ensures that we can do this.

If you have more questions, you can contact your local PRO TRAINER, email us at info@canfitpro.com, or call us toll-free at 1-800-667-5622, or contact us online.

CPR must be issued within the last year from a live course. A minimum CPR level A is required.

To keep your CPR skills sharp and effective, it is the best practice, and industry standard, to have your CPR renewed annually. This gives you practice and muscle memory to perform CPR at an elevated level of effectiveness. This also allows you to stay up to date with the most current CPR procedures.  

Completion of a CPR certification for renewals prior to May 31 are highly recommended but not required.

CPR is a physical skill – to master and appropriately demonstrate your capabilities, CPR needs to be taught in a live setting. canfitpro, along with our educational partner Rescue 7, only offers and accepts live courses as they also meet nationwide insurance and health and safety board requirements.

You can find CPR courses by visiting www.canfitpro.com and logging into your member portal. Under the “Get Education” drop down, select “CPR courses” and you can browse different dates, locations, and levels there.

All canfitpro CPR courses are hosted by our team of excellent PRO TRAINERS. Our PRO TRAINERS are following the guidelines set by public health and our educational partner Rescue 7 to make CPR courses as safe as possible. In addition to following all masking and vaccination requirements of their host facility, all courses are being held at limited capacities so that social distancing can be maintained. There is a 1:1 equipment ratio (no sharing), and all equipment is sanitized prior to each course. You will be provided a face shield for breath practice on the mannequins, as well as access to hand sanitizer and sanitizing wipes if needed.

Vaccination and masking policies are dictated by the provincial guidelines, and host facilities of the courses, and we unfortunately do not control those regulations. Please refer to the special instructions section on the course listing for notes regarding vaccination requirements. For further clarification and/or confirmation of vaccination requirements for that facility, please contact the PRO TRAINER directly prior to registering. If you are not fully vaccinated against COVID-19 and require further assistance with booking a CPR course, please connect with Member Experience Team at info@canfitpro.com or 1-800-667-5622.
