Testimonials
Here’s what people are saying after taking a course with Saskatoon First Aid
I needed a re-certification fast and these guys were definitely helpful. I called late at night and still managed to register over the phone for the course the next day! I learned all the latest stuff and got my certificate at the end of the course. Thanks guys!
Here’s another review:
I was very nervous because I had never taken a first aid or CPR course before. The teacher broke it down to manageable steps and we got to practice our skills with hands on training. I was very happy with everything I learned and was delighted with the price. I strongly recommend these guys.
