Delta First Safety is proud to partner with Big Hearts First Aid, a Canadian Red Cross Instructor Development Centre (IDC), to offer the Red Cross Instructor Course. This course equips candidates with the skills and knowledge to effectively teach Red Cross First Aid/CPR courses. By exploring educational learning theory and teaching principles, participants gain a solid foundation in instruction techniques.
