CPR and first aid are key skills that are important to everyone, not just scuba divers. Emergency First Response Instructors teach skills based on internationally recognized emergency care guidelines, and can offer courses to anyone. An EFR Instructor’s role is to be a coach that creates a positive learning environment, presenting course content while encouraging student self-discovery. Qualified EFR Instructors are certified to teach the Emergency First Response Primary Care (CPR), Secondary Care (First Aid), Care for Children, CPR & AED courses.
