Intermediate (Standard) First Aid Recertification
This course is intended for students whose Intermediate (Standard) First Aid certification is still valid and approaching its expiry date.

✅ Intermediate (Standard) First Aid Certification (3-year renewal)
✅ CPR-A or C
This course is NOT intended for annual CPR-BLS renewal only.
If your Intermediate (Standard) First Aid certification has already expired, you must register for the full Intermediate (Standard) First Aid & CPR course instead of a recertification course.
