Frequently asked questions
General

There are several options: You can book online by going to the "Upcoming Classes" page on this website or fill out this form to set up your course or send an email to
How many people will be in the course with me?
To provide the best experience possible and to create a safer environment for you to learn, class size will cap off at 12 candidates. If your group is bigger than 12, we can have a bigger class with no problem. Just shoot us a message and we'll set it up a private course with you right away!
I want a private course, how does it work?
Why should I take my course with you?
With Forest City First Aid, you will be in a smaller group maximum of 8 candidates to deliver an exclusive course customized to the group. You will get a chance to practice actually giving artificial breaths on realistic manikins (other organizations rarely ever do this because of larger class sizes and extra cost). At an additional cost, we can come to your location to teach, and we are flexible with scheduling as well. We have a 100% pass rate so far because there is no set finishing time, the instructor will continue teaching until everyone is comfortable including the instructor (max. 16 hours of teaching for SFA, 8 hours for EFA, 8 hours for CRP-A/B/C/HCP). As this is a private course, we can tailor the course to the needs of our clients to get the most out of our course.
How long will the course take?
We customize each class to the candidates work, career, needs and wants. The actual time needed may vary depending on course format, the number of candidates and the learning activities selected. One weekend formats are common. Based on 12–16 candidates: Emergency First Aid: ~8 hours, Standard First Aid: ~16 hours, SFA Recert: ~6.5-8 hours, CPR-A/B/C: ~4-8 hours, CPR-HCP: ~6-8 hours. If the class needs more practice and help, the instructor will continue to teach at no extra cost up to maximum class hours plus an hour. We want you to be prepared, comfortable and get certified!
