Our training emphasizes hands-on, scenario-based learning that prepares participants to recognize emergencies, take action, and provide effective first aid until more advanced care arrives. Whether you're learning first aid for your family, personal development, recreation, or simply to be better prepared, our courses focus on practical skills that can make a difference in everyday life.
EEFA operates using a mobile training model, offering public courses in community venues throughout the Okanagan, Kootenays, and surrounding regions.
