FAQ
To renew your first aid certificate with the Canadian Red Cross in British Columbia, you will need to take a recertification course before your current certification expires. The specific process for renewing your certificate may vary depending on the course you took initially, so it’s best to check with the Canadian Red Cross or the training provider that you originally took the course from for more information.
All Canadian Red Cross First Aid certifications are valid for three years, but the frequency with which you need to renew your certification will depend on many factors, such as your job requirements. For example, nurses and lifeguards often need to renew their CPR every year.
