Basic first aid programs are held at various schedules throughout the week, 14-16 hours in total. The program curriculum focused on basic first aid skills such as managing choking and bleeding injuries, performing basic wound care and immobilization, and cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). Class hours are spent half in theory or lectures and half developing and practicing different skills.

A and C are for new trainees, while HCP is for health care professionals. Automated external defibrillators (AEDs) are also included in the training. AEDs are machines that give the heart an electrical shock during CPR.
