How to Become a MEDIC FIRST AID Instructor

Becoming a MEDIC FIRST AID instructor or instructor trainer is easy. Our family of programs include CPR/first aid for OSHA compliance in the occupational setting, healthcare provider BLS/CPR, automated defibrillation, emergency oxygen, bloodborne pathogens, and pediatric CPR/first aid. The Facilitator training process allows you to purchase and teach any or all of these programs.

What is a MEDIC FIRST AID Facilitator?

A class of new facilitators learns how to teachThere are three steps to fulfilling the training requirements for becoming a MEDIC FIRST AID Instructor:

  • Step 1: Provider Training

    First attend and successfully complete student-level training for the programs you wish to teach. This will provide you with an understanding of the course content and the physical skills necessary to be able to perform effective emergency care.

  • Step 2: Facilitator Self-Study Training

    Most of the technical and administrative knowledge required to function productively as a MEDIC FIRST AID Facilitator is presented in the Facilitator Self-Study Guide and Video. You can spend as much time as necessary gaining an understanding of our instructional design and administrative issues. Condensing this traditional classroom-based information into a single self-paced resource reduces your classroom time.

  • Step 3: Facilitator Training Class

    Finally, you will attend and complete a classroom training session. This session is designed to help new Facilitators become comfortable with the practical use of the instructional elements found in MEDIC FIRST AID training programs including Facilitator and student guides, Small Group Practices, Talk-Through Scenarios, and Performance Evaluations. It also provides an opportunity to ensure the skill competence of each Facilitator candidate.
